THERMOSTAT CONTROL

The thermostatic control used on these models
differs from standard thermostats. Standard ther-
mostats simply turn on and off the burner. The
thermostat used on this heater senses the room
temperature. The thermostat adjusts the amount of
gas flow to the burner. This increases or decreases
the burner flame height. At times the room may
exceed the set temperature. If so, the burner will
shut off. The burner will cycle back on when room
temperature drops below the set temperature. The
control knob can be set to any heat level between 1
and 5. Selecting the 5 setting will cause the burner
to remain fully on without modulating down in
most cases.
Note: The thermostat sensing bulb measures the
temperature of air near the heater cabinet. This
may not always agree with room temperature
(depending on housing construction, installation
location, room size, open air temperatures, etc.).
Frequent use of your heater will let you determine
your own comfort levels.
1. Remove front panel (see Figure 7, page 9).
2. Follow steps 1 through 7 under Lighting
Instructions, page 14.

after lighting pilot. After 30 seconds, release
