Operation
WARNING: This heater must be properly installed before it
is used.
1. Prior to energization remove all construction dirt (plaster,
sawdust, etc.) from interior and exterior of heater.
2. Adjust thermostat with pliers. This unit is also controllable
from a line voltage wall thermostat or field installed built-in
tamperproof single or double pole thermostat kit.
Dimplex kickspace heaters are designed and tested for safe
and trouble-free operation. All Dimplex kickspace heaters are
protected against overheating by a built-in thermal cutout.
Free airflow throughout the heater is extremely important for
the most efficient operation of the heater. Restricted airflow
may cause the thermal overload protector to cycle the heater
"ON and OFF". A cycling heater will not supply sufficient heat
to the room.
Avoid direct contact of paper, fabric, or furniture with heater.
