NOTE: The power light will illuminate when the heater is

DIGITAL THERMOSTAT
Your heater is equipped with a Digital Thermostat that allows
you to set your heater to your precise comfort level.
SETTING THE DIGITAL THERMOSTAT:
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 grad-
ually increase until the room has reached the preset tem-
perature.
5. If the unit will not start in the digital thermostat mode,
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 sec-
onds without heat. This cool down process ensures an
accurate and consistent temperature reading. If you unplug
the heater, you will have to reset the digital thermostat 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. After heater is turned
off, fan will run for 30 seconds to cool unit.
NOTE: Digital thermostat has memory. The digital thermo-
stat will remember the previous temperature setting after the
unit has been turned off. However, if the unit is unplugged,
the digital thermostat will be reset and will no longer remem-
ber the previous temperature setting.
USING THE PROGRAMMABLE TIMER
Digital thermostat allows the user to program the heater to
turn on at a preset time, or turn off after a set amount of
time.
Setting the Off Timer:

heater to run in.
2. While the heater is running, press and hold the up and
down buttons simultaneously.
3. By pressing the up and down buttons, program the
heater to turn off in up to 16 hours from the current

illuminate to show that the timer is activated.
5. After the predetermined length of time has passed, the
heater will automatically shut off.
Setting the On Timer:
1. While the heater is off, press and hold the up and
down buttons simultaneously.
2. By pressing the up and down buttons, program the
