GENERAL INFORMATION
Over Temperature Cut Out
The Mantis
The high temperature cut off switch will automatically switch off the gas supply to the heater, if the temperature in the room where the heater is located reaches approximately 28°C (82.4°F). The heater will go into lock out mode. An allowance of 15 minutes minimum must be made to allow for the main fan to cool down the heater prior to restarting the appliance.
Note: In most instances, overheating of the heater is a direct result of too much lint and dust having accumulated in the main convec- tion fan. This makes the fan unable to supply sufficient air to cool down the heat exchanger. It is recommended that you inspect your main convection fan prior to the start of the heating season and if necessary have it serviced by a qualified service technician (refer to Pages 45 and 46 - Maintenance).
