Owner’
s Guide
The TVH 600 features Vornado’s signature Vortex Technology to provide
efficient circulation of heat throughout the entire room. The TVH
600 works by creating a tornado-like beam of air that
projects across the room until reaching a barrier, returning
around the perimeter of the room to be recirculated. This
results in an even temperature throughout the room and
surrounds you in a “blanket of warmth.” This is unlike most
space heaters, that heat the space directly in front of the unit
and provide limited to no circulation - allowing the heat to
simply rise to the ceiling.
The TVH 600 incorporates multiple safety devices and systems. These features include:
Durable Construction
Designed of metal and plastic to be cool to the touch.
Tight Grill Spirals
Resists curious fingers.
Automatic Tip-Over Protection
Heater automatically shuts off if it is tipped over.
Automatic Safety Shut-Off System
The TVH 600 has a multi-level safety shut-off system designed to prevent overheating.
Overheating may occur if the inlet or outlet is blocked, a foreign object prevents the blade
from turning, or the appliance tips over. If this happens, the safety shut-off system will cut
power to the heat element and you will need to manually reset the unit. This shut-off system
also has a back-up one-shot fuse for added protection. (See Resetting the Unit below)
Ideal Exit Air Temperature
Approximately 120° F; warm enough to heat an entire room and is the temperature of the
exit air in most central forced air heating systems.
Wide Base
To maximize stability
Grounded Heavy-Duty Power Cord
3 prongs make for a more secure wall connection.
Illuminated Indicator Light
A visible reminder that the heater is on.
Non-Glowing, Thermostatically Controlled Heating Element
Even on HIGH, the heat element does not glow. Non-glowing heating elements are safer
and longer lasting.
Resetting the Unit
1. Unplug the unit.
2. Remove any obstructions.
3. Wait 5-10 minutes.
4. Plug in heater and press the POWER button. The unit should now function normally.
If the safety shut-off system repeatedly shuts off your heater, or if it will not reset after following
the above procedure, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISASSEMBLE THE UNIT. Call Vornado Consumer
Service Department toll free at 1-800-234-0604.
