Troubleshooting

Problem Solution(s)
Thermostat is hot. Under normal operation, the thermostat housing can reach a

temperature between 35 °C (95 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F).
Displayed temperature is wrong.| Remediate if any the following conditions exists:
• The thermostat is exposed to air draft.
• The sticker on the thermostat’s screen has not been removed.
• The thermostat is located near or above a heat source such as a light dimmer.
Display disappears and reappears after a few minutes.| The thermal protection device on the heater has temporarily opened.
This can happen if the heater is obstructed by furniture or curtain and has overheated, or if the heater’s thermal protection device is too sensitive.
