Hi Just got my heater and the manual is horrible. How do you get the ambient temp to display? What are the codes after holding down?

Turn heater on and let it run for a minute to produce heat. Then touch the set Button&gt; It will display the temp. &gt; the heater is set at and flash. Use the up and down buttons to set desired temp. Then touch the set button to lock it in. This heater does not constantly display temp, the panel will go off, but the heater is still on the auto setting. I do not like this heater as much as my higher end Comfort ZONE Heater, but for the price it does OK. There should be no codes, sometimes if you set the timer the 1hr looks like a code, if you want to use the timer, follow the instructions, they didn,t to to bad regarding that feature... Hope this Helped !

Your question is very vague but here goes, The Man Control works like this, when you first turn the unit on you set it to high to heat the room to the temp youlike in the room then you rotate it counter clockwise to get the temp you want it well turn off most of the time at about a quarter of the way on, but your supposeto set it at what temp like when you back it down! Hope that works!

The heater control is not intended to bea thermostat that will keep an area temperature no lower than a setting. It keeps the heater no colder than a setting so my heater came on briefly when the temperature was 25F. It didn't significantly heat the area. I would not trust this heater to keep an area from going below freezing, The outsidetemperature plays a major role in the temperature that this or similar heaters heat an area. By experement you could find a setting that would keep an area at 40F but if the outside temp. took a dive the inside temp will also go down but not as much.If you need to freeze protect an area plug your heater into a Farm Innovators TC-3. Find one on Amazon. It kicks on at 35F The heater control is not intended to bea thermostat that will keep an area temperature no lower than a setting.

Hi Randy - I unfortunately returned this heater soon after buying it. It had an issue with temperature control - it would heat up really nice and then switch to cold air. I could not get it off of cold air no matter what I tried. I never received feedback as to why, I was just refunded (I asked for replacement). I'll be buying a different heater shortly.

Hi Willa,depress the knob counterclockwise to IGN and when the heater lights then turn to one of the 3 settings; IGN if you want heater to be able to easily light the next time, LO if you want medium heat, and HI if you want the full capacity of the heater. Works well for us.Hope that helps, Fondly, Richard

Good question! Let me know if you find one. This would be an excellent heater if the manufacturer did not use thermocouples that they know are defective. Why do I say that? Because nearly EVERY review that I have read States the same problem. Now I have a heater sitting out in my garage that will not light! I recommend that any person thinking of purchasing this heater buy a Mr Heater instead. They work! If World Marketing would send me a new thermocouple (that works), I would install it.

I now like the machine but the settings/temps process is mysterious. In brief, be sure it is in the mode you want; like standard and not eco or fan. I turn it on and up to where it starts, then back it down. I set its reading to four or five degrees higher than I actually intend. This way it cycles on and off at night and keeps the (bed)room at the desired temperature. This advice may not help. In which case persist; just fool with the thing until you win. Or call LeLonghi and good luck with that.

I've never tried to calibrate the temperature and there's no temp register. Turn the dial, and if the room is cold, the heater turns on until a higher temp is reached. If that's not high enough, turn it up another notch. Every time the temp drops, the heater automatically turns on again. It might work for your RV, but efficiency depends on the size of space you're trying to heat. I'm very satisfied with the heater but I'm just using it in my bathroom at this point. When our weather gets colder I plan to try it in the living room. Hope this is helpful.

I found that the unit is totally unreliable, the heater will not hold its temp,I seen up to an 8 degree variation and lost 2 clutches..I stopped using it..good luck!

There is not a temperature that shows on the heater. When it feels to warm I just turn mine down. I have been very satisfied with that. It works well and does not cost a lot to use.

The thermostat know has 10 indicated settings plus the on and off settings. The instruction manual says the following: Set the thermostat knob by turning clockwise to where you want it and allow the heater to warm up the room. When the desired comfort level is reached, lower the thermostat slowly until you hear the unit click off. Heater will now automatically maintain the desired comfort level. I paraphrased a little bit. In other words, once the desired temp. has been reached the heater cycles on and off. Works fine. There are no specific numbers on the heater knob. You just have to find what's comfortable for you.

Mine remembers the last used temp. I don't change that much. I altered one of the presets slightly for my favorite temp, although don't recall that I made it the startup default. But it pops up to that temp everytime I turn it on. Just checked it again for you simply altering it on the fly, turned off, and it popped right back to the new (last set) temp. Fine unit; don't know what I did without it.

Where do you live? Has it now turned warmer there? One of the last times I used my heater, about a month ago, it only ran for about 15 minutes and then turned itself off. I happen to have a couple small thermometers in my bedroom, so I noticed the temp was warmer than the 68 setting I had the unit turned onto. I did use it a couple times after that in the bathroom which is on a very shady side of the house and the heater worked like normal. So I think it's just smart enough to know when it's not needed. This is just a guess on my part.

On the both remote control or on the side of the heater unit there are triangle shaped markers under "temp setting" that point upward or downward, you press on them and each time you do you will hear a beep and see the lit up digital number change. For example if it is at 68 and you press the upward pointing triangle once it would show 69 degrees. I believe it will only go upward to a maximum of 80. Hope this helps you figure it out : )

The top button is your answer, sounds like it might be faulty. I'm sure you've already tried to just take it out and unplug it and let it sit an hour or so then 1) put it back in the water for 20-30 minutes, 2) plug it in and set the temp. I love mine - and 78 works for my Beta but it will cycle through the choices just fine. I like the way it blinks at a different temp to show actual water temperature.

Hi Erin, the unit measures the temperature of the surfaces it 'sees'. If you cannot actually see the heater, I suggest you take comparative readings of a surface that will warm when the heater is on and cool when it is off. This will give you a base for future readings to determine whether the heater is working or not. I hope this is of assistance. Cheers, Ken

My heater did not have a remote. The heater is factory set at 120 degrees F. For normal residential use this is satisfactory for our use. Heater can be programmed upward to 135-140 degrees by changing a few switches internally.
