Electric heater adjustment

[Jeff Miller]

There is an allen-wrench adjustable set-screw in the original
thermostat. Don't go too far or you can overheat the heater. If it is
the vertical one in the galley, turn it over so that the thermostat
is at the bottom for longer cycles.

Cleaning/vacuuming the heater and blower when it's out will help, the
blower draws air over the thermostat bulb and needs decent airflow.
