You can set the thermostat control knob to any comfort level between HI and LO.

The ideal comfort setting will vary by household depending upon the amount of space to be heated, the output of the central heating system, etc.

Note: Selecting the HI setting will cause the burner to remain on without modu- lating down in most cases.
