Mains Indicator Neon Lens

Operation of Thermostat

1.The heater incorporates a variable thermostat which is controlled by a knob situated on the top right hand side of the front panel. The knob is marked *, 1 - 6, MAX, representing a temperature range of 5°C to 30°C. Lowest setting provides frost protection level.

2.Turn thermostat knob to maximum. When the room has reached the desired comfort level turn back the knob until the thermostat just ' clicks ' off. If the knob is left in this position the room temperature will be maintained automatically at the chosen level.

Remember

If, when the heater is switched on, the room temperature is above that selected on the thermostat knob the heater will not operate. This is as it should be, and the thermostat is performing its function correctly. Should a higher temperature be required than the one selected, then it will be necessary to turn the thermostat knob to a higher setting to bring the heater into operation.

Located at the bottom left of the front panel, the ‘mains indicator neon lens’ is to indicate when there is electrical supply to the heater and comes on when the fan switch, on the remote switch assembly is selected.
