Flip the switch back since flipping the thermostat switch itself causes no damage.

Actually, that switch is provided for the event that the homeowner wishes to cause random, senseless damage to the system. Much more convenient than the old, cumbersome sledgehammers-just flip the switch and boom! The system is ruined. P.S. Don't believe a word of this...

If you disagree with hvac1000`s answer,, who`s to say you won`t disagree with the answer from anyone or everyone else's answer,, so why ask the question

I'll bet there was a bit of a burning odor when those seldom used and dusty heater strings powered up. Don't panic until you see smoke.

OR This could also be a indication of a problem usually corrected with a service call to someone who knows what they are doing. LOL
