To Stop Heater

TRANSPORTING, OR SHIPPING CAUTION

Never unplug heater while heater is running. Heater must go through purge cycle. The purge cycle cools the combustion chamber. Damage to heater can occur if combustion chamber is not cooled. Do not restart heater until purge cycle is complete.

1.Turn thermostat dial to lowest temperature setting. This will cause heater flame to go out. The motor will continue to run during the purge cycle. This allows the fan to cool the combustion chamber. When the purge cycle is finished, the motor will stop. Do not unplug heater until purge cycle is finished.

2.Unplug extension cord from outlet.

3.To temporarily stop heater, set thermostat at a temperature lower than air around heater. Heater will cycle back on if air temperature around heater matches thermostat setting.
