WARNING
Before installing and operating this product, the user and/or installer must
read, understand and follow these instructions and keep them handy for future
reference. If these instructions are not followed, the warranty will be
considered null and void and the manufacturer deems no further responsibility
for this product.
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.
The following instructions must be adhered to in order to avoid personal
injuries or property damages, serious injuries, and potentially fatal electric
shocks.
Protect the heating unit with the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse, in
accordance with the nameplate.
Make sure the line voltage (volt) is consistent with that indicated on the
unit’s nameplate.
This unit must be grounded.
Switch off the power at the circuit breaker/fuse before installing, repairing,
and cleaning the unit.
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/cubic foot (0.03 m³)
It corresponds to 10 W/square foot (0.09 m²) based on a standard ceiling
height of 8 feet (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, refer to a specialist who will be
able to calculate these heat losses and optimize the required capacity or
consult the “Online heating calculation” section of the Stelpro Design Web
site (residential buildings). To heat a large room and to increase your
comfort, it is recommended to install several units instead of one. For
example, 2 X 1000 W rather than 1 X 2000 W.
Do not install the unit where objects or pieces of furniture could be heat
damaged.
If the unit’s capacity is insufficient for the size of the room, it will be in
operation continuously and may become defective earlier and turn yellow.
Respect distances and positions indicated in the installation section.
If the installer or user modifies the unit, they will be held responsible for
any damage resulting from this modification, and the CSA certification could
be void. This unit must not come into contact with a water source and must be
protected from splashes (e.g. a wet mop). 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 mounting the unit, make sure that the anchorage used can support the
total weight of the unit with the mounting brackets.
When cutting or drilling into a wall, do not damage electrical wiring and
other hidden utilities.
When starting up the unit for the first time or after a long period, it is
normal that it produces some temporary odors and whitish smoke. 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. Let the unit cool down for a few minutes
before handling it (it stays warm for some time after shut-down).
The bottom of this unit must be installed at least 4 inches (10.2 cm )
from the floor and 6 inches (15.2 cm) from any adjacent surfaces. However,
make sure objects or pieces of furniture such as, but not limited to,
blankets, towels, beds, laundry baskets, clothing, papers, etc. do not come
into contact with the unit and keep them at least 12 inches (30.5 cm)
from the unit since they are more flammable than walls and floors. Failure to
comply with this warning could lead to a fire. 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.
Never block air vents. This obstruction could lead to overheating, which could
result in a fire.
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any air vent as this may cause
electric shocks, a fire, or damage to the unit.
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, gasoline, paint, chlorine,
sawdust, and cleaning products.
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 or
activates and deactivates repeatedly, 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, cut off the power supply at the circuit
breaker and call a certified repair center. (Refer to the limited warranty) If
the unit is damaged or defective, cut off the power supply at the circuit
breaker and call a certified repair center. (Refer to the limited warranty.)
Note: When a part of the product specification must be changed to improve
operability or other functions, priority is given to the product specification
itself. In such instances, the instruction manual may not entirely match all
the functions of the actual product. Therefore, the actual product and
packaging, as well as the name and illustration, may differ from the manual.
The screen/LCD display shown as an example in this manual may be different
from the actual screen/LCD display.

by a SUN icon, and the NIGHT mode, identified by a MOON icon. To switch from
one mode to the other, simultaneously press down both buttons once.
N.B. When you select the NIGHT mode, the thermostat will respond
accordingly for the duration of the time preprogrammed for this mode (see
“Selection of the Duration of the NIGHT Mode”). When the preprogrammed time
has passed, the thermostat will automatically return to the DAY mode.
THE NORMAL DISPLAY WILL CONTINUOUSLY INDICATE:
– the current mode icon ;
– the ANTIFREEZE mode icon ( ), (if applicable, see “Antifreeze Protection”);
– the LOCK icon ( ), (if applicable, see “Lock option”);
– the automatic mode icon ( ), (if applicable, see “Automatic Mode”);
– the ambient temperature of the room;
– the selected temperature scale (°C or °F)

DAY MODE
HOW TO SET THE DAY TEMPERATURE
By pressing down the top or bottom button, you will enter the setting mode
indicated by the flashing SUN icon. This way, you can see the DAY temperature
setting.
You can change the temperature with these same buttons by increasing (top
button) or decreasing (bottom button) the set point. The temperature set point
will increase or decrease by increments of 0.5 °C (or 1 °F) each time you
press a button. If you hold down the button, the temperature will quickly
scroll through, allowing a faster and more efficient setting.
Once the temperature is set, release the button; the normal display will
resume after three (3) seconds.
NIGHT LIGHT MODE
Normally, the backlight is activated when you press down the button and stays
on for fifteen (15) seconds afterward. To keep the backlight on,
simultaneously press down both buttons for 3 seconds (until the backlight
blinks), then release. Repeat this procedure to deactivate the night light
mode.
SELECTION OF THE TEMPERATURE SCALE
To change the temperature scale (°C or °F), simultaneously press down both
buttons for eight (8) seconds, and the °C or °F symbol will blink. Release the
buttons to set the new scale (note that the backlight will blink after 3
seconds).
LOCK OPTION
It is possible to impose a maximum temperature set point by activating this
mode. Then, it becomes impossible to exceed this set point, regardless of the
current mode (DAY/NIGHT). However, it is still possible to lower the
temperature at your discretion. All the other functions remain unchanged. For
increased security, the power supply needs to be cut off in order to
deactivate the lock.
LOCKING PROCEDURE
- From the DAY mode, adjust the set point to the maximum desired value.
- Simultaneously press down both buttons for more than 13 seconds, until the LOCK icon is displayed (note that the backlight will blink after 3 seconds and the °C and °F symbols, after 8 seconds).
- Release the buttons. The thermostat is now locked.
UNLOCKING PROCEDURE
- Cut off the power supply of the thermostat at the electrical panel.
- Wait about 1 minute.
- Restore the power supply of the thermostat at the electrical panel.
- The LOCK icon blinks on the thermostat display, meaning that it is possible to unlock the thermostat.
- While the LOCK icon is blinking, simultaneously press down both buttons for more than 10 seconds, until the LOCK icon disappears.
- Release the arrows. The thermostat is now unlocked.
N.B. If the thermostat is not unlocked within 5 minutes after restoring the power supply, the LOCK icon will stop blinking and it will be impossible to unlock the thermostat without cutting off the power supply again.
NIGHT MODE
HOW TO SET THE NIGHT TEMPERATURE
By pressing down the top or bottom button, you will enter the setting mode
indicated by the flashing MOON icon. This way, you can see the NIGHT
temperature setting.
You can change the temperature with these same buttons by increasing (HIGH
button) or decreasing (LOW button) the set point. The temperature set point
will increase or decrease by increments of 0.5 °C (or 1 °F) each time you
press a button. If you hold down the button, the temperature will quickly
scroll through, allowing a faster and more efficient setting.
Once the temperature is set, release the button; the normal display will
resume after three (3) seconds.
SELECTION OF THE DURATION OF THE NIGHT MODE
By simultaneously pressing down both buttons for three (3) seconds, you will
be able to program the desired duration of the NIGHT mode. You can decrease or
increase the number of hours (1 to 999 hours). If you hold down the button,
the hours will quickly scroll through allowing a faster setting. The normal
display will resume three (3) seconds after releasing the button.
Therefore, you can regulate the unit according to your specific needs. For
example, to save energy and increase comfort at night, you can set the number
of hours so that the unit automatically switches to DAY mode when you awake
(see “Automatic Mode”). Furthermore, if you are going away for some time and
wish to save energy during your absence without having to come back to an
uncomfortable room, simply indicate the number of hours you will be absent (1
day = 24 hours, 1 week = 168 hours). By setting the NIGHT mode this way before
leaving, the temperature will automatically switch back to DAY mode upon your
return, thus ensuring optimal comfort.
AUTOMATIC MODE
To activate or deactivate this mode, you must switch to the “Selection of the
Duration of the NIGHT Mode”. The number of programmed hours must be 23 or less
to activate the AUTOMATIC mode. To activate it, simultaneously press down both
buttons for three (3) seconds. To deactivate this mode, simultaneously press
down both buttons again for three (3) seconds. If the number of programmed
hours is increased to more than 23, the AUTOMATIC mode will immediately be
deactivated (if it was activated). The AUTOMATIC mode icon lights on or off as
applicable.
If you do not press down any button for five (5) seconds, you exit the
programming mode and return to the NIGHT mode, the programming of the NIGHT
mode is re-initialized and the AUTOMATIC mode becomes effective (if it was
activated). After 24 hours, the thermostat returns to the NIGHT mode
automatically.
Then, the night programming is re-initialized and another 24 hours cycle
starts. Even if the thermostat is in AUTOMATIC mode, you can switch from DAY
mode to NIGHT mode at your discretion, it will not impact the 24 hours cycle
or the automatic return of the NIGHT mode.
N.B. Activation of the OFF mode deactivates the AUTOMATIC mode.
When power is restored (after a power failure for example), the AUTOMATIC mode
is deactivated. If it was activated before the power down, the AUTOMATIC mode
icon blinks. Then, the thermostat will be in DAY mode. The blinking will cease
as soon as you press a button.
PRECISE ELECTRONIC CONTROL
A chrono-proportional electronic thermostat controls this unit with a high
degree of accuracy in order to minimize temperature differences and increase
your comfort level. It allows a very stable temperature and ensures uniform
comfort. It also keeps the casing at a low temperature, making it more secure.
The chrono-proportional electronic thermostat entirely regulates the unit by
increasing or decreasing the heating cycle percentage according to the
selected temperature. Please note that the unit becomes warmer if the heating
demand is higher and that it remains mildly warm when the demand is lower.
N.B. If the unit is set on high or if it is not functioning at all, the
temperature gauge of the thermostat sensor cannot take a precise reading.
However, the reading becomes extremely precise once the heating level has
stabilized. Therefore, uniform convection increases the precision of the
thermostat.
In order to obtain a precise and optimal ambient temperature reading, the unit
must operate on a regular basis, i.e. without significant temperature
variation for at least an hour. (This amount of time increases if a
temperature change of more than 4 degrees is requested. Add approximately 15
minutes for every degree above 4).
ANTIFREEZE PROTECTION
In order to protect your home against freezing and limit energy consumption
during long absences, put the thermostat on ANTIFREEZE mode. To enter this
mode, lower the day temperature to between 3°C and 5°C. A snowflake icon ( )
is displayed. This icon indicates that the economic and secure ANTIFREEZE mode
is on.
THE “NO HEAT” MODE
To turn the heat off, you must lower the day temperature to less than 3°C. The
inscription “OFF” is displayed (note that there is still electrical current to
the unit, meaning that there is a risk of electrical shock).
WITH AN ELECTRONIC WALL THERMOSTAT
Prefer an electronic wall thermostat equipped with a proportional tension
variation that maintains a precise temperature, thus increasing your comfort
level.
MAINTENANCE
N.B. In order for the warranty to be valid, the unit must be cleaned
regularly.
Cut off power supply at circuit breaker/fuse before cleaning the unit. Use a
soft rag for dusting. When cleaning, use only a damp rag and non-abrasive dish
soap. If you use a cleaning product, always wipe the product off properly to
avoid the discoloration of the unit. Do not use abrasive or chemical cleaners
because they may damage the finishing. If the unit is used in a very dusty
location, use a vacuum brush to remove dust and other foreign objects from the
grilles. Note that cigarette smoke could yellow the discharge grille and that
the best way to prevent it is to clean the unit on a regular basis.
Do not use cleaning products identified with these symbols:
N.B. Note that there is an electrical current linked to the unit even if the
thermostat is set off. This means that there is a risk of electric shock as
long as the unit is energized.

CONDITIONS, EXCLUSIONS, AND DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
This warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all other representations and
warranties (except title), expressed or implied, and Stelpro expressly
disclaims and excludes any implied warranty of merchantability or implied
warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.
Stelpro’s liability with respect to products is limited as provided above.
Stelpro shall not be subject to any other obligations or liabilities
whatsoever, whether based on contract, tort or other theories of law, with
respect to goods or services furnished by it, or any undertakings, acts, or
omissions relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Stelpro expressly disclaims any liability for property or personal injury
damages, penalties, special or punitive damages, damages for lost profits,
loss of use of equipment, cost of capital, cost of substitute products,
facilities, or services, shutdowns, slowdowns, or for other types of economic
loss or for claims of a dealer’s customers or any third party for such
damages. Stelpro specifically disclaims all consequential, incidental, and
contingent damages whatsoever.
This warranty does not cover any damages or failures resulting from 1) a
faulty installation or improper storage; 2) an abusive or abnormal use, lack
of maintenance, improper maintenance (other than that prescribed by Stelpro),
or use other than that for which the unit was designed; 3) a natural disaster
or an event out of Stelpro’s control, including, but not limited to,
hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, terrorist attacks, wars, overvoltage,
flooding, water damages, etc. This warranty does not cover any accidental or
intentional losses or damages, nor does it cover damages caused by the
negligence of the user or owner of the product. Moreover, it does not cover
the cost of disconnection, transport, and installation.
The warranty is limited to the repair or the replacement of the unit or the
refund of its purchase price, at the discretion of Stelpro. Any parts
replaced or repaired within the warranty period with the written authorization
of Stelpro will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty
period. This warranty will be considered null and void and Stelpro will have
the right to refuse any claims if products have been altered without the
written authorization of Stelpro and if the nameplate numbers have been
removed or modified. This warranty does not cover scratches, dents, corrosion,
or discoloration caused by excessive heat, chemical cleaning products, and
abrasive agents. It does not cover any damage that occurred during the
shipping.
Some states and provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages and some of them do not allow limitations
on how long an implied warranty lasts, so these exclusions or limitations may
not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may
have other rights which vary from state to state or from province to province.
