WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should al-
ways be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and
injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this heater.
2. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or
near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left op-
erating and unattended.
3. Do not use outdoors.
4. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry
areas and similar indoor locations. Never locate heater where
it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
5. Ground fault circuit protection is required if heater is used in
damp areas such as basements or garages. This is not suit-
able for use in wet or very humid locations.
6. To disconnect heater, turn controls off, then remove plug
from outlet. Always unplug heater when not in use.
7. Connect to properly grounded outlets only.
8. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation
or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or
fire, or damage the heater.
9. Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other
use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons.
10. Check heater voltage and amperage on back of heater to
make sure it agrees with the electric service supplied.
11. Do not operate heater without stand.
12. When heater is to be wall or ceiling mounted, the anchoring
provisions must be of sufficient strength to support the total
weight of the heater plus the weight of the mounting provi-
sions. Failure to properly secure the supporting members of
the building structure could allow the heater to fall.
13. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let
bare skin touch hot surfaces. Use handles when moving this
heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture,
pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet
(0.9 m) from the front of the heater and keep away from the
sides and rear.
14. A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not
use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids
are used or stored.
15. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or
after the heater malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged
in any manner. Discard heater, or return to authorized serv-
ice facility for examination and/or repair.
16. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with
throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route cord
under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away from traf-
fic area and where it will not be tripped over.
17. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust
in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed,
where openings may become blocked.
18. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.
Never use with an extension cord or re-locatable power tap
(outlet/power strip).
19. Check heater cord and plug connections. Faulty wall outlet
connections or loose plugs can cause the outlet or plug to
overheat. Be sure the plug fits tight in the outlet. Heaters
draw more current than small appliances, therefore over-
heating of the outlet may occur even if it has not occurred
with the use of other appliances. If plug outlet or faceplate is
HOT, discontinue use and have qualified electrician
check/replace the faulty outlet.
