Operation And Maintenance - Cadet SL Series Owner's Manual

Installation Instructions
After you have followed all instructions, in Part One, for either new construction or an existing wall,
you are ready to install the heater assembly.
How do I insert the heater
assembly into the wall can?
STEP 1 Heater Assembly
Connect the supply wires to the heater
wires with wire connectors.
IMPORTANT: On 120 volt heaters, the
white heater wire must connect to the
white supply wire.
Install the junction box cover so that
the wire connections are located
between the cover and wall can using
the screws provided.
Place heater assembly inside wall can
and secure with four screws.
STEP 2 Install Grill
Secure grill with screws provided.
Slide thermostat knob onto shaft.
IMPORTANT: Before turning on power,
be sure the control is turned to the
lowest setting.
Operation & Maintenance
How to operate your heater
1. Once installation is complete and power
has been restored, turn the thermostat knob
fully clockwise.
2. When the room reaches your comfort level,
turn the thermostat knob counterclockwise
until the heater turns off. The heater will auto-
matically cycle around this preset temperature.
3. To reduce the room temperature, turn the knob
counterclockwise. To increase the room
temperature, turn the knob clockwise.
Maintenance
As needed, or every six months minimum.
1. WARNING! Before removing grill, turn the
electrical power off at the electrical panel
board (circuit breaker or fuse box). Lock or tag
the panel board door to prevent someone from
accidentally turning the power on while you
are working on the heater. Failure to do so
could result in serious electrical shock, burns,
or possible death.
2. It is important that you verify power has
been turned off and no power is going to the
heater before proceeding. Circuit breakers
are often not marked correctly and turning
the wrong breaker off could mean electricity
is flowing to the heater, even if the heater
does not appear to be working. If you are
uncomfortable working with electrical
appliances, unable to follow these guidelines,
or do not have the necessary equipment,
consult a qualified electrician.

3. Once you verify the power has been turned off
correctly, proceed to the next step.
4. Remove screws and take off grill.
5. Wash grill with hot soapy water and dry
immediately.
6. While holding fan (to avoid damage or bending),
use a hair dryer or vacuum on blow cycle
to blow debris through the elements (do not
touch element).
7. Vacuum fan area without touching the elements.
8. Replace grill and secure with screws.
9. Turn thermostat to desired setting.
10. Turn power back on at the electrical panel board.
About the Heater Temperature-Limiting Controls
The heater is protected by a manual reset
temperature limiting control designed to open
the heater circuit when excessive operating
temperatures are detected. The problem must
be assessed and the limit must be reset to
resume operation.
Resetting the Manual-Reset Limit Control
If the manual reset limit control has opened
the heater circuit due to excessive operating
temperatures, the heater will not work until the
limit reset button is pressed. After allowing the
unit to cool for at least 10 minutes, turn the
electrical power off at the electrical panel board
(circuit breaker or fuse box) and remove the grill.
Once the problem causing the limit to trip has been
resolved (typically the heater is blocked or needs
cleaning), push button located on the left side of
the heat box. Press FIRMLY, and be sure to listen
and feel for a click, indicating it has been reset.
