Was using my 2017 r-pod 179 as an extra bedroom over the holidays using a 30 AMP female to a 15 AMP RV Cord Adapter. The electric seemed to work fine, but I could not set the thermostat on my heater above 32 degrees. The temperature was actually quite comfortable with the thermostat at 20 degrees. Although I had removed the batteries for winter storage, I don't understand why I could not set the thermostat above 32 degrees?

What happened is that your thermostat is set for Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. Hold the up and down arrows down and it should switch. 20C=68F and 32C=89.6F.

Yep.
Press and release the + and - buttons at the same time. That will change you back to F.

Sounds like the solution I need. The thermostat had been operating on Fahrenheit before I used the cord adapter, I just wasn't sure how it got changed to Celsius. Probably an easy mistake to make when pushing those buttons. Thanks for your prompt response.
