7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your VASNER Konvi heater, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Heater does not turn on | No power supply Thermostat set too low Overheat protection activated | Check if the plug is securely in the outlet and the outlet is functional. Increase the thermostat setting. Unplug the heater, let it cool for 30 minutes, then plug it back in. Ensure it is not covered. |
| Insufficient heat output | Thermostat set too low Room size too large for heater wattage Poor room insulation | Increase the thermostat setting. Refer to the wattage guide (Figure 7.1) to ensure appropriate heater size for your room. Improve room insulation if possible. |
| Unusual odors | New unit burning off manufacturing residues Dust accumulation | This is normal for the first few uses; ensure good ventilation. Clean the heater as described in the Maintenance section. |
