Cadet RM202 Installation Instructions, Part One, Read All Instructions And Safety Information

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT!

It is extremely important you verify the electrical supply wires are the same voltage as the heater (i.e. 120 volt heater to 120 volt power

supply and 240 volt heater to 240 volt power supply).

If replacing an existing heater, check the labels of the old heater and replace using the same voltage. Hooking a 240 volt heater to a 120 volt power supply will drastically reduce the heater's output. Hooking a 120 volt heater to a 240 volt power supply will destroy the heater. Connecting your heater to an incompatible power supply will void the warranty.

Warranty is void if any material is sprayed on the element or blower.

Installation Instructions

Part One

PLACEMENT: For best results install The Register Plus on an inside wall. Headers and bracing are not

necessary. NOTE: The wall can must be installed in the TOP UP (horizontal) position only. Heater is not approved for ceiling mount.

THERMOSTAT: A thermostat is required. A Cadet Electronic Thermostat is recommended for ultimate control and comfort.
