  If your Vornadobaby Heater fails to power off, first check if the unit is locked. If the lock icon is lit, hold down on the icon for 3 seconds until the light turns off. If the unit is unlocked and still does not power off, unplug the unit and contact consumer service. Also, ensure the unit is set to High Heat and the thermostat is set to the highest temperature setting.
