Yes you can. It's called education. People are generally not idiots. Make it easy for them to learn how to do something right and the overwhelming majority will do that thing right. It's when you leave them to figure out something they have no domain knowledge in on their own that causes problems.

Operating a radiator should not require education or domain knowledge. Its only affordances are "turn up" and "turn down," and neither of those should lead to a failure mode other than touching hot metal and singing yourself.
