Troubleshooting

Heater not turning on

Check that the thermostat is plugged into a working socket and that the heater is securely plugged into the thermostat. Verify the set temperature is below the current room temperature.

Heater not turning off

Ensure the set temperature is higher than the current room temperature. Check for obstructions around the thermostat's temperature sensor.
