SMART LIMIT PROTECTION

This heater is ecuipped with a thermal overload SMART LIMIT PROTECTION which disconnects elements (fan delay & fan only function still workst in the event normal operating temperatures are exceeded. If thermal overload trips due to abnorma operating temperatures, thermal overload remains open until manually reset by turning the heater Off for 15 minutes. Inspect for any objects on or adjacent to the seater that may cause high temperatures. After inspecting the heater, keep the power to the heater off for 15 minutes to reset the SLP thermal protector. If the SLP thermal protector
PROTECTION shuts the heater off again, immediately turn the heater OFF at the circuit breaker and inspect the heater for possible fan motor faiure or dit and lint on the heating element. Repeat the sarting procedure
