HEATER OPERATION
Notice: This heater is a major electrical appliance
and requires adequate electrical connections for
safe use. Plug the heater directly into a wall or floor
receptacle when possible. If an extension cord is
required, use only a heavy duty cord rated for 15
amps minimum . No other major electrical appliance
should be operating on the same circuit.
How To Operate Your Heater
NOTE: Before operating heater,
HEATER INSPEC-
TION
Steps 1 through 3 must be completed:
1) Plug the electrical cord into a 120 volt (AC) out-
let. The plug should fit tightly into the recepta-
cle for a proper electrical connection.
2) Rotate the thermostat control knob clockwise
until the light illuminates, indicating the heating
element is on. Model EPA1500/3 multi-watt units
have a second light (indicating the unit has
power) and a wattage control switch. (See
Figure 2)
3) Allow approximately one hour for the room tem-
perature to completely stabilize. If the room is
still too cool, turn the thermostat knob slightly
clockwise to a higher setting. If the room is too
warm, turn the thermostat knob slightly counter-
clockwise to a lower setting. (Multi-watt mod-
els: if the indicator light remains illuminated and
the room is not warm enough, set the wattage
control knob to the next higher rating.)
4) Once the room has reached a comfortable tem-
perature, turn the thermostat control knob
counter-clockwise until the indicator light goes
out, and the thermostat will maintain room tem-
perature.
