The rocker switches allow you to choose between 3 possible heating levels:

second stage: 1250 W
third stage: 2000 W (both switches on)
You can use the thermostat (2) to set a constant room temperature. The unit will switch on as soon as the air temperature falls below the set value.
Once the set temperature is reached, the unit switches off. If you want a higher temperature, turn the knob of the thermostat clockwise, if you want a lower temperature, turn it counter-clockwise.
Overheat protection switches off the appliance in the event of overheating, e.g. when covering air inlets and outlets. Switch off the power by pulling out the plug. Allow the appliance to cool down (min. 30 minutes).
Check that the air inlets and outlets are clear; clean if necessary. Put the appliance back into operation.
