BIONAIRE BLP3340 - Manual

ECO-SMART™ TECHNOLOGY
ECO-SMART™ is a technology that allows this portable heater
to heat an area more efficiently through a continuous cycling
of wattages. Although no physical change is noticeable, when
the heater runs in ECO-SMART™ mode it consumes less energy
over a long period of time. To activate the Eco-Smart™ cycle
depress the Eco-Smart™ button. The Eco-Smart™ cycle can be
deactivated by depressing the Eco-Smart™ button. Once
deactivated, the heater will run continuously at 1500 watts.
PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure the heater is OFF before plugging the heater
into the outlet.
2. Place the heater on a firm, level surface.
3. Avoid overloading your circuit by not using other high
wattage appliances in the same outlet. At 1500 Watts,
this unit draws 12.5 Amps.
4. Make sure unit and plug is free of moisture and debris
before plugging into an electrical outlet.
