Sunbeam’s Total Safety System  
Safety auto shut off  
Thermal back-up fuse  
Your Sunbeam Oscillating Digital Ceramic  
Heater is equipped with a safety system  
that detects any abnormally high  
temperatures within the heater and  
automatically shuts it off to prevent  
overheating. This first stage of the safety  
system requires the user to manually reset  
the heater for it to resume operation.  
In addition to this automatic cut off, your  
heater contains a thermal back-up fuse to  
provide additional back-up protection. If  
the heater is in an overheat situation, the  
back-up fuse will open, stopping the power  
flow to the ceramic heating discs and fan.  
This fuse cannot be reset, so in the event  
that the back-up fuse is activated, the  
heater will need to be replaced.  
For instructions on how to reset your  
heater, see page 8.
