FIRST USE ONLY:

1.  Put batteries into Remote. The "Room" temperature is 

displayed at all times.  (Use 3 AAA Alkaline batteries 
only, do not mix batteries)

2.  Plug unit into outlet.  The first time the unit is plugged

in,  it will beep every two seconds until it is synced with
the remote. To sync unit with remote follow the below
steps:

Unlock remote. (This must be done before each use of 
the remote) To Unlock remote, hold down the mode 
button for 2 seconds until the lock symbol disappears 
on the screen. Once the remote is unlocked, press the
mode button again and the unit will quickly beep 5 
times telling the user the signal was received. DO NOT 
SYNC more than 1 unit at once.  A hazardous situation 
may occur.

Note: If the batteries are running low on power, a low 
battery indicator will appear on the remote.  Low batteries
will affect transmission distance and the screen contrast.
We recommend replacing batteries immediately.

Note:  The transmission distance for this remote is 30 ft,
do not use outside of 30 ft area of appliance.  Remote
must be used in same room as appliance.

Note:  Galileo can be used in either Fahrenheit or Celsius.
To change the reading on the remote, flip the remote over
and push the button located on the left hand side with a
ball point pen tip.  This switch will change the reading from
F to C and vice versa.

MANUAL OPERATION WITH REMOTE

1. Press Mode button on the remote. "Low" illuminates on

remote screen indicating mode.  The power light on the
unit will turn on. The unit turns on and operates in
"Low" mode. The units "Low" light will illuminate. In this
mode, the unit will continuously run at its low wattage.

2.  Press Mode button on remote a second time. The 

remote screen will now display "High" (1500 Watts).  
The unit’s "High" light will illuminate and the unit will run 
in this mode.  In this mode the unit will continuously run
at 1500 Watts.

Note:  While using the remote, the backlight function will
turn on when any button is pushed and will turn off after 
10 seconds of non-use.

Note:  Do not cover remote while in use, this may affect
the accuracy of the temperature reading.

Note:  Do not place remote under lamps as the radiant
heat from the lamp may affect the accuracy of the 
thermostat

Note:  Because heat rises, and the Galileo remote senses
temperature, Bionaire recommends that you do not locate
the Galileo remote higher than 4ft from the ground.  By
locating the Galileo more than 4 ft from the ground, you will
get a less accurate temperature reading than under normal
circumstances.

THERMOSTAT OPERATION WITH REMOTE

displays “Auto” and “low”.  The “Set’ temperature is 
displayed next to the "Room" temp.  The “Auto’  light

maintain the “Set” temperature. The default room temp
= 72ºF.  In this mode the unit will run to maintain the
“Set” temperature.
