Thermostat Adjustments

The thermostat dial is adjusted to its lowest setting when shipped from the
factory. When adjusting the thermostat, it should be remembered that lower
temperature settings are more energy efficient. To adjust the thermostat, turn
the dial clockwise until the minimum acceptable temperature is set. It is
suggested that the starting point setting not exceed the 120°F (49°C) or "HOT"
setting on the thermostat.
NOTE: Taupe / Silver faceplate is approximately 160ºF maximum set point.
Dark (Battleship) Grey is approximately 180ºF maximum set point.

The thermostat dial is set to its lowest temperature setting when shipped from
the factory. Remember that lower temperature settings are more energy
efficient. Adjust the temperature by turning the thermostat dial. It is
suggested that the starting point setting not be greater than the "Hot" mark on
the thermostat dial (approximately 120°F [48.9°C]). Rotate the thermostat dial
counter-clockwise to decrease the temperature setting. Rotate the
thermostat dial clockwise to increase the temperature setting. Adjust
the dial until the minimum acceptable temperature is achieved.
