Troubleshooting; Operating Tips - Vornado TVH500 Owner's Manual

Problem
Unit fails to power on.
Unit is not producing
sufficient amount of heat.
† To properly carry the heater, place one hand on the back opening and use your
other hand to hold from the front (see picture).
† In smaller areas, you might prefer to set the unit in Low mode. A vortex beam of
air will gently keep the air circulating in the room for even, uniform heating.
† In larger spaces, you might prefer to set the unit in High mode. A vortex beam of
air will gently keep the air circulating in the room for even, uniform heating.
† To use the TVH 500 as a personal fan, set the mode to Fan.
The TVH 500, like any other 1500-watt electric heater, draws up to 12.5 amps of
electric current. If using your TVH 500 on High setting causes your home circuit
breaker or fuse to trip, we offer the following suggestions:
Possible Cause and Solution
Unit is not plugged in. Plug Power Cord into electrical outlet.
Household circuit breaker / ground fault interrupter has tripped or blown a fuse. Reset circuit breaker /
ground fault interrupter, or replace fuse (See OPERATING TIPS).
The unit has overheated. Automatic Safety Shut-Off has initiated (See RESETTING YOUR VORNADO HEATER).
Unit is damaged or in need of repair. Cease usage and unplug. Contact Consumer Service for assistance.
Ensure unit is set to High Heat and thermostat is set to highest Temperature setting.
Close all doors and windows to trap heat.
Allow the unit to fully circulate the heat throughout the room, may take several minutes.
† Try turning off other electrical appliances that run on the same circuit as your
heater.
† Run your heater in Low mode.
† Have your electrician add an additional circuit to your home's electrical system.
† When the room temperature is higher than the set temperature it is normal and
correct to have little to no heat coming out of the TVH500. When the unit is first
turned on there is a slight delay before heat will start to be produced.
† ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING THIS AND/OR ANY ELECTRICAL
APPLIANCE.
