not glow bright red like other heaters
The power to the heater has been shut off
The desired room temperature set on the thermostat has
been reached
The area directly in front of the heater is not being heated,
but the room generally is being heated

The Mode Selector Dial (5) has been turned to the OFF
position but the fan is still running
