Adjusting Air Flow Direction 
The vertical louvers may be adjusted to move the air 
flow more to the right or to the left.   
Use a screw driver or similar object to bend each 
louver to the desired position. 
Do not bend repeatedly (no more than 5 times) or else 
the louver will break. 
The horizontal louvers (which determines the vertical 
air flow direction) are fixed and cannot be adjusted. 
     CAUTION 
 
 Do not adjust the air flow 
louvers while warm air is 
flowing. 
Adding Water to the Humidifier 
     CAUTION 
 
Do not remove the bottom 
trim panel or the humidifier 
tray while warm air is 
flowing.  Wait 5 minutes after 
turning the unit off.

Warm air is humidified when it passes over the water 
in the tray. 
To fill the tray, remove the bottom panel by pushing on 
both sides and pulling it toward you.  Pull the tray out 
and fill with water.  Do not exceed the fill line.  Push 
the tray back in and attach the bottom panel.  Do not 
operate the appliance unless the humidifier tray is 
installed. 
During operation a small amount of condensation is 
produced in the flue system and drains into the 
humidifier tray. 
 
This function allows a minimum room temperature to be pre-set, between 
38ºF and 78ºF (in 2ºF increments).  This temperature should be set below 
the room temperature setting.  The default setting is 60ºF.  Once the Set 
back function is selected the appliance will start heating whenever the 
room temperature falls below the selected temperature, regardless of timer 
or manual settings. 
Follow these steps to set and operate the Set back feature: 
1.  Make sure the heater is turned OFF. 
2.  Press the “Set back” button.  The light above the button will come on.   
3.  Press the up and down buttons to set the minimum temperature. 
When the “Set back” indicator is on, frost protection is operating, and will 
always prevent the room temperature from falling below the pre-set 
minimum temperature (as long as electric power and gas is supplied). 
To turn this feature off, press the “Set back” button. 
The unit will retain its ON or OFF setting after a power failure. (Default 
setting at the factory is on.)
