...about the Cadet Energy Plus heater

The Cadet Energy Plus Heater provides comfort to a room by using an efficient, variable speed fan to circulate the warm air, and an intelligent thermostat to deliver precise temperature control.

Your heater is designed to save energy and run at a low speed once the desired room temperature is reached. This is normal operation that reduces on/off cycles and improves overall performance and comfort.

Your heater also has a cool down feature that may run the fan for up to 10 minutes after switching to STOP HEATING/NO FAN mode. This is typical. The air coming out of the heater may feel cool, but it’s actually residual heat moving into the room.

...some installation facts

•Install vertically only. The recommended height is 24 inches (61 cm) from the floor to the bottom of the wall can.

•The heater must not be installed in the floor or ceiling, even if you are replacing an existing heater that was installed in either of these locations.

•Installation on an inside wall is recommended.

...a wall thermostat may not be used

Your Energy Plus heater is equipped with a unique built-in thermostat that both regulates the heat output and provides precise tem- perature control. If replacing a heater controlled by an existing wall thermostat, remove wall thermostat from the heater circuit and cover the hole with a faceplate.

TO REMOVE AN EXISTING WALL THERMOSTAT FROM HEATER CIRCUIT

1.Make sure power is off at the main disconnect panel.

2.Remove wall thermostat mounting screws.

3.Pull the thermostat away from the wall and count the wires.

4.A. If you count 2 black supply wires and 2 white supply wires in the box, disconnect thermostat and connect the 2 black wires together with a wire connector (not included). Connect the 2 white wires together with another wire connector (not included). Connect all ground wires together.

B. If you have 1 black supply wire and 1 white supply wire, disconnect thermostat and connect the black and white wires together with a wire connector (not included). Connect all ground wires together.

C. If you have more than 2 black or 2 white wires, please consult a qualified electrician.

5.If you have a metal junction box, it must be grounded (use a grounding screw or clip).

Fault Codes

About the Manual Reset Temperature Limit Control

The heater is protected by a temperature-limiting control. The manual reset temperature limit control is designed to open the heater cir- cuit and stop the electrical current flow when excessive operating temperatures are detected. The problem must be assessed (typically the heater is blocked or needs cleaning) and the limit must be reset to resume operation.

Resetting the Manual Reset Limit Control

Resetting the Manual Reset Temperature Limit Control

If the manual reset limit control has opened the heater circuit due to excessive operating tempera- tures, the heater will not work until the manual reset limit button is pressed.

The “manual reset limit button” is the red button located on the upper left side of your heater, behind the grill louvers located just above the digital temperature display.

After allowing the unit to cool for at least 10 minutes and resolving the problem causing the limit to trip (typically the heater is blocked or needs cleaning); use a narrow object such as a ball-point pen to access the manual reset button through the upper-left center section of the heater grill. Press FIRMLY and be sure to listen and feel for a click, indicating it has been reset.

MAINTAINING YOUR HEATER

Maintenance As Needed, or every six months minimum.

WARNING! Before removing grill, turn the electrical power off at the main disconnect panel (circuit breaker or fuse box). Lock or tag the main disconnect panel door to prevent someone from accidentally turning the power on while you are working on the heater. Failure to do so could result in serious electrical shock, burns, or possible death.

WARNING: Any other service not detailed in this Owner’s Guide should be performed by an authorized service repre- sentative.
