Machine is working normally
This is completely normal.
The machine will run very slowly when in idle mode to keep air flowing over the thermostat so it can constantly regulate the temperature of the air.
There is no safety concern.
If the noise is intrusive, switching the machine off at the wall will stop the noise, or altering the position of the product in the room might make the noise less audible.

Paper test
The fan has a strong, smooth airflow when switched on. The airflow should be strong to lift a sheet of newspaper past 45 degrees.

Hold a newspaper approximately 2 meters (6' 6'') away from the product with the airflow control dial turned to maximum.
Does the newspaper lift beyond 45 degrees?
The heating elements turn on one at a time and so this is to be expected when the machine first turns on.
Run the heater for 1 minute at the highest temperature setting.

Retry machine at 32°F/0°C
On first use, the heater will default to a temperature 1°C/33°F higher than the current room temperature.
Thereafter, the heater will remember the last target temperature set.
The heater will not operate unless the target temperature is above the room temperature.
Please retry the machine at temperature setting 37°C/99°F.

The heater will not operate unless the target temperature is above the room temperature, or the target temperature is set to 32°F/ 0°C for cooling.
Please retry the machine at temperature setting 32°F/ 0°C.

The digital display will show the new speed; after 3 seconds it will change back to the target temperature.

Next step
How to tilt
Carefully hold the base and top of the loop amplifier. Tilt forward or backwards for the required airflow angle.

Next step
Heating modes
For heating in a single spot, select a low flow of air.
For heating a whole room, select a high flow of air. For best results turn on the oscillation control.

Next step
Cool air
Press the blue thermostat control button to change the target temperature to 0°C. The power button light will change from red to blue. To adjust the airflow speed, use the airflow speed control.
To return to Heating mode, press the red thermostat control button until the digital display shows the desired target temperature. The power button light will change from blue to red.

Next step

Ensure that the machine is placed on a stable solid surface. Turn the machine on using the ON/OFF button on the machine.
NB: On first use, the heater will default to a temperature 1°C higher than the current room temperature. Thereafter, the heater will remember the last target temperature set.
Next step
Temperature setting
Select the desired room temperature. Pressing red increases the target temperature, blue decreases it.

Next step
Replace the remote control battery
