C. General Operating Information
1. Thermostat Calls For Heat
The appliance is like most modern furnaces; when the thermostat
calls for heat, your appliance will automatically light and deliver
heat.
When the room is up to temperature and the thermostat is
satisfi ed, the red call light will shut off and the appliance will shut
down. The red call light is located behind the right access panel.
2. Heat Output Controls
This appliance is equipped with a heat output control switch
that has three settings or burn rates; low, medium and high.
Figure 26.1.
The appliance will turn on and off as the thermostat demands.
When the thermostat calls for heat, the appliance will always
start up on High. After burning approximately 4 minutes, the
appliance will then burn at the rate at which it was originally
set. If the appliance is set at one of the lower settings, it will
run quieter but takes longer to heat up an area than if it were
set at a higher burn rate.
Regardless of the burn rate, when the area is warm enough to
satisfy the thermostat, the appliance will shut off.
