CERAMIC TECHNOLOGY
- Ceramic heaters generate heat by passing electricity through heating wires embedded in ceramic plates.
- In the Honeywell Heat Genius TM Ceramic Heater, air is drawn into the back of the heater by two fans,
through the ceramic elements and out the front of the heater to gently introduce warm air into the room. - This type of heating technology provides consistent, even heating.
- For best results, place heater on the floor and allow heater to run for 5-10 minutes to reach maximum
heat output.
SET UP
- The Honeywell HeatGeniusTM Ceramic Heater requires no assembly. Simply unpack heater and save all
packaging materials for off-season storage. - Place the heater on a firm, level, open surface, free from obstructions and at least 3 feet (0.9m) away
from any wall or combustible material. - DO NOT use on an unstable surface such as bedding or deep carpeting.

HEAT SETTINGS
FLOOR AREA – (LOW HEAT)
This setting uses the lower level heating element only to provide a comfortable, gentle heat to warm up the
floor area in front of the heater.
PERSONAL – (MODERATE HEAT)
This setting uses a moderate heat level to warm you personally wherever you may be relaxing (reading,watching TV, etc.). The LO option provides a soothing heat level, while the HI option slightly increases heat output, allowing you to adjust to your desired comfort level.
ROOM – (MODERATE-HIGH HEAT)
Best for whole room heating, use this setting to bring warmth to cooler, drafty rooms. The LO option provides a moderate heat level, while the HI option uses maximum heat output to create a warmer environment.
THERMOSTAT – (MODERATE-HIGH HEAT)
To set the Thermostat, press the Thermostat Control Buttons to choose your Desired Temperature. The Desired Temperature will flash five times and then the Current Temperature in the room will display as a steady number. The Thermostat can operate on either HI or LO heat levels to achieve Desired Temperature by pressing the button under Room.
NOTE: If the Current Temperature is higher than your Desired Temperature, the heater will go into cool down
mode and then shut-off until the room temperature falls below this setting or until the Desired Temperature
is changed.
HEAT PHASE™ TIMER

The timer starts at high heat and steps down 4 different heat levels until it shuts off – over a 2 hour period. This feature is ideal for setting a comfortable, relaxing environment. (Fig. 2) The timer can also be toggled to start at whichever level desired.
QUIET MODE
The new Quiet Mode features uses a low heat setting and fan speed to produce a gentle “white noise” and soothing warmth. (Fig. 3)
