Frequently Asked Questions - TurboForce HHF550B HONEYWELL

How to turn on the Honeywell TurboForce HHF550B heater?

Plug in the appliance, then turn the thermostat to the desired setting. Press the On/Off button to turn on the fan. Select the heat level (low or high) using the switch.

What to do if the heater does not turn on?

First check that the appliance is plugged in and the socket works. Make sure the thermostat is not in the 'Off' position (turned fully left). If the problem persists, check the fuse or contact customer service.

How to use the oscillation function?

Oscillation is usually activated by pressing the Oscillation button on the control panel. You can deactivate oscillation by pressing this button again.

The heater makes an abnormal noise: what to do?

A slight fan noise is normal. If the noise is loud or unusual, stop the appliance and check that no objects are obstructing. Clean the air inlet grille. If the noise persists, contact customer service.

How to clean the filter of the TurboForce HHF550B?

Unplug the appliance. Remove the filter (usually at the back) and wash it with warm soapy water. Dry it completely before replacing. Never use the heater without the filter.

What is the maximum heating power?

The Honeywell TurboForce HHF550B has a maximum power of 1500 watts, suitable for heating rooms up to about 20 m².

The heater turns off by itself: why?

This may be due to overheating. The appliance has a protection that turns it off automatically if it gets too hot. Make sure the grilles are not blocked and the appliance is on a stable surface. If it happens again, let it cool down before turning it back on.

Can I use this heater in a bathroom?

Yes, the HHF550B is designed for indoor use, but it must be placed at least 1 meter away from any water source. Never immerse it in water or use it directly near a bathtub or shower.

How to adjust the thermostat?

Turn the thermostat knob clockwise to increase the desired temperature. When the room reaches that temperature, the appliance stops automatically, then restarts when the temperature drops.

Where can I find the full manual?

You can download the manual in PDF format for free at notice-facile.com by searching for the model Honeywell TurboForce HHF550B. The manual is available in several languages.

The Honeywell TurboForce® Heater Fan 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.

BE SURE THE HEATER IS NOT IN A POSITION WHERE IT MAY BE TRIPPED OVER BY CHILDREN OR PETS.

MOVING THE HEATER

This heater is equipped with a recessed carrying handle for your convenience. Turn off the heater. Allow it to cool for ten minutes. Unplug heater and move.

OPERATION

NOTE: The Honeywell TurboForce® Heater requires no assembly.

NOTE: Never leave an operating unit unattended Model HHF550 Series – Manual TurboForce® Heater Operation

With the Power Knob in the OFF (○) position, plug the heater into a polarized 120V outlet. DO NOT FORCE THE POLARIZED PLUG INTO THE OUTLET; it will only fit one way.

The Power Knob is equipped with three (3) settings: (Fig. 1) Fan Only (✗), Low (✗ and High ( )✗ The Low (✗) heat setting uses 750 watts of power and the High (✗) heat setting uses 1500 watts of power. The Fan only (✗) setting uses very low power and does not provide heat. You can select the proper setting to accommodate your comfort level with the Power Knob. When you choose any setting the red Power Light will come on. The Low (✗) heat setting does not require as much electricity to operate, it is more energy efficient and may be a better option if you are concerned about the amperage draw on a circuit when the heater is on the High setting. Use the Fan only setting for optimal comfort level year round.

NOTE: Controls/features will vary slightly by model

The TurboForce® Heater is also equipped with both a pivoting head and oscillation to provide heat flow how and where you want it most.

3 WAY PIVOT (Fig. 2) – the head of the heater can be adjusted up at 3 different angles - 15°, 30°, 45° - to provide more focused heat flow within the room.

• The 15^ pivot angle – allows the heat to flow more directly at a seated level.
• The 30^ pivot angle – provides heat flow at a standing level.
• The 45^ pivot angle – directs heat flow towards the ceiling. This angle is ideal to help generate whole room heat circulation.

NOTE: The Low (§) setting does not require as much electricity to operate. It is more energy efficient and may be a better option if you are concerned about saving energy.

To use the Fan only (no heat), press the Fan button Ⓤ.

To set the thermostat, continue to press the Heat Level button (☐) until Auto is illuminated. There are 4 pre-set comfort settings from which to choose: 65°, 70°, 75°, 80°. Continue to press the Heat Level button to select your desired room temperature setting. The heater will operate at HIGH heat in order to reach this desired temperature.

NOTE: If the Current Temperature is higher than your Desired Temperature, the heater will be off until the room temperature falls below your desired temperature.
