MAINTENANCE

For efficient and safe operation and to extend the 

life of heater, it should be cleaned and inspected for 

damage annually, preferably at the beginning of the 

heater season, or more often in dirty environments. 

Other than cleaning, the heater requires no other 

preventative maintenance. 

WARNING! To prevent a possible electric shock, 
always unplug heater from outlet before 
cleaning or servicing. Allow heater to cool 
before cleaning to prevent a possible burn.

1.  Heater cabinet may be cleaned using a damp 

cloth to remove dust that may have accumulated 

on surfaces. Do not use harsh cleaners and waxes 

on surfaces, as these could damage or discolor the 

finish.

2.  A vacuum cleaner or compressed air may be used 

to remove dust and lint accumulated inside heater 

around element fins. 

CAUTION! Fins are sharp and may cause cuts. 
Avoid contact.

3.  After cleaning and servicing, reassemble by 

replacing any hardware removed and check unit to 

make sure it operates properly.

OPERATION CONTINUED

4.  Allow heater to operate normally until the room 

reaches desired temperature. 

NOTE: This heater is designed to slowly radiate 
gentle, even heat. It may take several hours to 
reach the desired temperature.

5.  Rotate thermostat knob counterclockwise until a 

click is heard. Thermostat will automatically cycle 

heater on and off as needed to maintain desired 

room temperature.

NOTE: A new smell coming from the heater 
may be detected during initial use. Operate 
heater on highest setting for at least one hour 
to minimize the new smell. Heater may not 
heat up immediately because of the tubular 

element design. Heater will take a few minutes 

before warmth will be felt.
