Watts, when a comfortable room temperature is reached. The heat
output isshown by the two neon indicators on the frontgrille:

Alternatively the heater can be operated via external wall switches,
fitted during installation,which as well as turning the heater on and off
can also override the thermostat, acting as a ‘Boost’ switch.
