PRODUCT SETUP AND SETTINGS
To adjust the temperature to your requirements, turn the dial on the thermostat clockwise all the way to turn the heater on. When the room reaches the desired temperature, turn the thermostat knob counterclockwise until you hear the click. Leave in this position to maintain the room temperature at this setting. For additional heat, turn clockwise until you click and the heater will turn on. Single pole models-Turning knob fully counterclockwise will set the temperature rating to 41 °F. Double pole models- Turning knob fully counterclockwise will disconnect the power to the heater.

Changing °C and °F control dials
Use a small flathead screwdriver to pry off the control dial. Insert into one of the slots on the dial and gentle apply pressure to remove.
To install the new control dial, line up the pins on the dial with the holes on the thermostat knob. Push together until secured into place.
