AccuTemp PlusDIGITAL THERMOSTAT

Your heater is equipped with an AccuTemp PlusDigital Thermostat that allows you to set your heater to your precise comfort level.

Setting the AccuTemp Plusthermostat:

1.Press the Mode Button once for manual HI power. The heater will run continuously on HI.

2.Press the Mode Button again for manual LO power. The heater will run continuously on LO.

3.Press the Mode Button for a third time for Auto Mode HI Power (AH) or press again for Auto Mode LO Power (AL). In either of these modes you may then press the up, and down buttons to reach your desired temperature.

4.Once you have reached your desired temperature, the display will return to current room temperature and gradually increase until the room has reached the preset temperature.

5.If the unit will not start in the AccuTemp Plusmode, please make sure the “set temperature” is higher than the current room temperature.

NOTE: It is normal for the heater to cycle ON and OFF as it maintains the preset temperature. To prevent the unit from cycling, you need to raise the thermostat setting. When the preset temperature is reached, the fan will run for 30 seconds without heat. This cool down process ensures an accurate and consistent temperature reading. If you unplug the heater, you will have to reset the AccuTemp Plusthermostat again by following the above instructions.

NOTE: To shut the unit off at any time, press and hold the mode button down for two seconds. For 6408 only, after heater is turned off, fan will run for 30 seconds to cool unit.

NOTE: AccuTemp Plushas memory. The AccuTemp Plusthermostat will remember the previous temperature setting after the unit has been turned off. However, if the unit is unplugged, the AccuTemp Plusthermostat will be reset and will no longer remember the previous temperature setting.
