For example, you might have switches for 1100W (two elements) and 2200W (all four elements).
3. Adjust Thermostat (if applicable): If your model includes a thermostat knob, turn it clockwise to increase the desired room temperature. The heater will cycle on and off to maintain the set temperature.
4. Power Off: To turn off the heater, set all control switches to the 'OFF' position and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.

Note: A slight odor or smoke may be present during the first few minutes of operation. This is normal and will dissipate quickly.
