IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

Before installing and using this product, you must read and understand these instructions and keep them for future reference.
If the installer and the user do not follow these instructions, the manufacturer cannot be held liable in any way and the warranty will be null and void.
The following instructions must be adhered to in order to avoid personal injuries or property damages, serious injuries, and potentially fatal electric shocks.
If the installer or the user modifies the unit, they will be held responsible for any damage resulting from this modification, and the CSA certification could be void.

INTENDED USE

For indoor installation only. Make sure the unit is appropriate for the intended use (if needed, refer to the product catalog or a representative).
RECOMMENDED HEATING CAPACITY: 1.25 W per ft (0.03 m ). This corresponds to 10 W per ft 2 (0.09 m²) based on a standard ceiling height of 8 ft (2.44 m). The recommended capacity is usually sufficient for normal heating needs. Please note that the insulation quality of walls and windows are some of the factors that influence heat losses, which modify the required capacity to heat a room. If needed, speak with a specialist (industrial and commercial buildings) who will be able to calculate these heat losses and optimize the required capacity, or consult the “Calculation Tools/ Heating Calculator” section of the °STELPRO Design website. If the unit capacity is insufficient for the size of the room, it will be in operation continuously and may become defective earlier and turn yellow.

POSITION

Do not install the unit where objects or pieces of furniture could be heat damaged. Respect the following distances and positions: This unit must be installed at least 6 in. (15 cm) from any adjacent surfaces and at least 6 in. (15 cm) from the floor. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, etc., and curtains at least 12 in. (90 cm) from the front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear. Some materials are more heat-sensitive than others, so make sure those near the unit can withstand heat. Do not install it on a wall behind a door. This unit has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. It is not designed to be used or stored in wet areas or areas containing flammable liquids, combustible materials, or corrosive, abrasive, chemical, explosive, and flammable substances such as but not limited to, paint, gasoline, chlorine, sawdust, and cleaning products.

RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, BODILY INJURY, AND DAMAGE
This product must be installed by a qualified person and connected by a certified electrician, according to the electrical and building codes effective in your region. Protect the heating unit with the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse, in accordance with the nameplate. Make sure the line voltage (volts) is consistent with that indicated on the unit’s nameplate.

This unit must be grounded.
Switch off the power at the circuit breaker or fuse before installing, repairing, and cleaning the unit.
This unit must not come into contact with a water source and must be protected from splashes (e.g. splashes from a sink or shower). Do not use it if any part has been immersed. Moreover, do not turn it on or off when standing in water or if your hands are wet.
When starting up the unit for the first time or after a long period, it is normal that it produces some temporary odors.
Because this unit is hot when in use, it may pose risks even in normal operation. Therefore, be careful and responsible when using it. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces.
The unit must cool down for a few minutes since it will stay warm for some time after shutting down.
Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage the heater.

MAINTENANCE

To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any matter.
Some areas are dustier than others. Thus, it is the user’s responsibility to evaluate if the unit must be cleaned based on the amount of dirt accumulated on and inside air vents.  Accumulated dirt can lead to a component malfunction or give a yellowish color to the unit. Failure to install and maintain the unit in accordance with these instructions poses a fire hazard.
Thermal protection activation indicates that the unit has been subjected to abnormal operating conditions. If the thermal protection remains activated it is recommended that a  qualified electrician or a certified repair center examine the unit in order to make sure it is not damaged. (Refer to the limited warranty.)
If the unit is damaged or defective, discontinue use, cut off the power supply at the circuit breaker or fuse, and have it repaired at a certified repair center. (Refer to the limited warranty.)

RESTARTING THE FAN HEATER AFTER THE THERMAL PROTECTION IS TRIGGERED
In the event of overheating, the unit’s thermal protection will trigger to prevent damage. When this happens, heating is switched off, but ventilation continues to evacuate heat, which is considered ventilation without heat. Once the thermal protection is triggered, you must restart the fan heater to resume normal operation: NOTE: If the fan heater has a built-in thermostat, the icon will appear on the display.

With a wall thermostat

1. Switch off the power supply to the fan heater directly at the electrical panel or lower the setpoint temperature sufficiently to stop the heating demand.
2. Find the cause of the overheating and eliminate it. For instance, make sure no objects are blocking the air inlets and outlets and that they are clean.
3. Wait 10 minutes, then turn the power back on or turn up the setpoint temperature.

With a built-in thermostat
When the thermal protection is triggered, the fan heater automatically makes up to three restart attempts.

1. Find the cause of the overheating and eliminate it. For instance, make sure no objects are blocking the air inlets and outlets and that they are clean. If the cause of the overheating is removed during automatic restarts, the unit will start heating again.
2. If, after its three restart attempts, the fan heater does not start heating again, press any of the three buttons to manually restart it.

If you do not identify the cause of the overheating or if the fan heater doesn’t begin heating again after a restart, it means an internal component may be defective, or an additional thermal protection device has been triggered. In this case, contact Stelpro’s customer service department.

MAINTAINING THE FAN HEATER

FOR THE WARRANTY TO BE VALID, THE FAN HEATER’S AIR INLET AND OUTLET MUST BE CLEANED REGULARLY.
WARNING: Cut off the power at the breaker or fuse before cleaning the unit. High voltage and the risk of electric shock are present in the unit even if the thermostat is set to off. Therefore, you can receive an electrical shock as long as the unit is under power.
Over time, cigarette smoke may cause the outlet grill to yellow. The best way to prevent yellowing is to clean the unit regularly.
Dust the front panel with a soft cloth and clean it with a damp cloth only.
If you use cleaning products, they could cause the heater to yellow. If the unit is installed in a very dusty location, use the dust brush of a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and other foreign objects.

When maintaining the product, never use:

• A brush or metal scrubbing pad
• Chlorine
