The units are protected from overheating in the event of fan failure or an
obstruction of the free airflow, by thermal cut outs. If this happens the
thermal cut outs switch off the appliance. The appliance will not operate
until the heater is disconnected from the mains supply and it has cooled down.
If this fault occurs again, refer to the section ‘6.4 fault finding’.
