Troubleshooting

If your heater is not operating correctly, please refer to the following common issues and solutions:

• Heater does not turn on:
  • Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet.
  • Check if the household circuit breaker has tripped.

  • Check if the child lock is activated. Deactivate it by pressing and holding the child lock button for 3 seconds.
• Heater stops working unexpectedly:
  • The overheat protection may have activated. Unplug the heater, allow it to cool for 30 minutes, then plug it back in. Ensure air intake and outlet grilles are not blocked.
  • The tip-over switch may have activated. Ensure the heater is on a stable surface.
• No heat, fan is running:
  • Ensure the heater is not in 'FAN' mode. Select a heating mode (HI, LO, ECO, MAX).
  • Check the set temperature. If the room temperature is higher than the set temperature, the heater will not produce heat. Adjust the set temperature higher.
