How does the dial work in conjunction with the ComforTemp switch?
1392970
Dear Mad: According to Page 4 No. 4 of the instructions they don't work in conjunction. "The thermostat operates according to room air temperature, rather than radiator temperature. Turning it counter-clockwise to smaller numbers would decrease the temperature; clockwise to greater numbers would increase the temperature." Page 4 No. 5 states "With both switches on and the COMFORTEMP button depressed the appliance is automatically set to reach and maintain the suggested & preset ideal energy-saving temperature."

It has worked for me so far, but the dial knob is not very efficient. On a daily basis, I heat two pet bed warmers that require from 7-9 minutes of heating. I haven't been able to figure out how the automatic settings work (eg for beef, potatoes, etc.), so I have to turn the dial for a long time - maybe 20 seconds - to get it to the time setting I need. Also, the dial doesn't function that well; often I turn and turn and it doesn't register on the timer. The heating works just fine, and then there's the melting problem - the top of the unit has sunken about an inch over the heating element, but it hasn't sunk any further since I first noticed the problem six months ago.

You don't. I just know my dial pretty well. It starts at low frequencies all the way counter clockwise and then you turn the dial clockwise and go up in frequency. It will tune in pretty accurate.

It should come on if you have the pin pressed all the way in. If the pin is in all the way it "trips" the timer to come on and go off. If electricity goes off you will need to reset the timer to the correct time just like the clocks in your home

The on-off is incorporated into the speed dial. Turn it and it clicks "on" and turn it further the speed will go up. Turn it the other direction and the speed will reduce and turned further will switch off.

There are a number of reasons the time clock dial does not spin. Try turning the dial counter clockwise by hand and see if you encounter any resistance. Make sure the feed to the clock is under the proper screw and is tightened down. A reversal of the neutral and hot leg will allow you to operate the clock switch and get the same results you are getting but the clock motor will not operate when the switch is off. Listen to the motor drive of the clock. Any noise? Touch it. Is it warm? Is the dial on the clock loose? Not being able to physically see your installation, these are the only suggestions I can think of in your situation. There are a number of reasons the time clock dial does not spin.

the on and off switch is part of the dial. Steam can also be used at lower temperatures. I'm very satisfied with this iron.

The instructions should help you. In the beginning, my switch was not automatically turning on. After a while, it started to do so. Remember, the switch determines the CHANGE in humidity. So the switch gauges what it feels is normal and then turns on according to the increase from normal to current conditions. in your case, it is important to not only set your sensitivity to high but also the humidistat to 20

Just going from memory, the white is neutral, and you will need a neutral in order for the timer to function properly. The other three allow the switch to work in a 1 or 2 switch environment, for example, as the only switch in the room, or as one of two switches.

Yes, it does function that way. It's not too finicky either, there's a very good range of travel in the switch before it engages to click into the on position.

You turn it on by plugging it in, if it sits too long just pick it up and tilt it. Dial is on the front panel, just turn to desired setting.

Yes, there are three control dials.One for timer function-when you press the fan button as a manual override how will it run at minimum (it will continue to run if it senses humidity after you manually turn it on).One for sensitivity-how sensitive is it to kick on from a change in humidity (this can be disabled in air cycle mode)One for max humidity level-always turn on if humidity exceeds a set level (though it may need to see a rapid increase as well) (this can be disabled)Air cycle mode has the switch cycle on and off using the manual timer setting as an interval and will only run if you initially switch the fan on. (will not sense humidity in the mode-probably not useful to your question) Yes, there are three control dials.One for timer function-when you press the fan button as a manual override how will it run at minimum (it will continue to run if it senses humidity after you manually turn it on).One for sensitivity-how sensitive is it to kick on from a change in humidity (this can be disabled in air cycle mode)One for max humidity level-always turn on if humidity exceeds a set level (though it may need to see a rapid increase as well) (this can be disabled)Air cycle mode has the switch cycle on and off using the manual timer setting as an interval... » Read More Yes, there are three control dials.One for timer function-when you press the fan button as a manual override how will it run at minimum (it will continue to run if it senses humidity after you manually turn it on).One for sensitivity-how sensitive is it to kick on from a change in humidity (this can be disabled in air cycle mode)One for max humidity level-always turn on if humidity exceeds a set level (though it may need to see a rapid increase as well) (this can be disabled)Air cycle mode has the switch cycle on and off using the manual timer setting as an interval and will only run if you initially switch the fan on.

There is a dial numbered from 1-10 to control the temp. I bought two... one worked and the other didn't. The working one works very well.

It automatically shuts off if it becomes too warm, so you could. And with ComforTemp it keeps it between 68-70 degrees. I personally feel more secure turning appliances off if I'm gonna be gone for an extended time though.

Hi Alana, I have tried to adjust mine and have found no matter which setting I put it on they all do the same thing. In other words the makers of this machine led people to believe we have a choice. this is the conclusion I came up with. It has an off and on button that works period. I use mine often as it does feel great on my tired and sore feet.

It works as a 3 way stitch. Both can be use to turn the light on or off at any time. As with any 3 way switch the positions of the toggle will change based on the one previously used. ie traditional on/off positions do not apply.

The dial is lighted, you can turn the light o or off as you wish and the button is handy.Only problem is in tuning the channels in, but you can see the frequencies via the lighted dial that you can't tune in.
