This heater has several safety devices .. any one of which will set off the alert .. there is a tilt switch.. if the unit starts to fall over or is on a tilt then that will stop its operation ... if the fan quits working or if the air flow is blocked either in the back air intake or the front exhaust then that will trip an over temperature alarm .. then there is a beam of light that goes in front of the heater .. it is aimed from the upper left corner to the bottom right corner .. if anything blocks that light or if the light is misaligned then that will trip the alert and shut off the machine .. make sure nothing is blocking that light or its sensor .. make sure it hasn't been bumped out of alignment ..
