Starting the Heater
- Ensure the heater is properly installed and connected to power.
- Press the power button on the LCD switch or remote control to turn on the unit.
- The ceramic igniter will initiate the combustion process, and hot air will begin to flow.
Adjusting Temperature and Settings
- Use the LCD switch to adjust the desired temperature between 32-104°F (0-40°C).
- The remote control allows for pre-heating from a distance of up to 98 feet, preventing frost and warming the interior before entry.
- The unit features a timer function and constant temperature control for consistent heating.
- Overheat protection is integrated, activating at temperatures ≥518°F.

Shutting Down the Heater
Press the power button on the LCD switch or remote control to turn off the unit. Allow the heater to complete its cool-down cycle before disconnecting power or moving.
Maintenance
- Regularly check the fuel filter and clean or replace as needed to ensure optimal fuel flow.
- Inspect the air intake and exhaust pipes for any blockages or damage. Clear any debris.
- Clean the exterior of the heater with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Periodically check electrical connections for tightness and signs of corrosion.
- Ensure the heat insulation shield on the exhaust pipe is intact and functioning correctly.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Heater does not start | No power, low fuel, clogged fuel line, faulty igniter. | Check power connection, refill fuel tank, inspect fuel line, consult service if igniter issue. |
| Low heat output | Clogged air filter, restricted air flow, incorrect temperature setting. | Clean air filter, ensure clear air paths, adjust temperature setting. |
| Excessive smoke | Poor fuel quality, incorrect fuel-air mixture, clogged exhaust. | Use clean diesel fuel, check air intake/exhaust for blockages. |
| Unusual noise | Loose components, fan obstruction. | Inspect for loose parts, clear any obstructions from the fan. |
