WARNING
Use of this heater in coastal salt-air regions can result in corrosion of the aluminum body and reflector, and premature
failure of the heat lamp. Corrosion and failure resulting from use in coastal areas is not covered by warranty.
1. The heater is designed for wall or post mounting and must be installed at a minimum height above the floor. See section 9.2 for details.
2. Ensure that clearances from the heater meet or exceed the minimum required clearances in section 9.5, pg. 8: Above; to the Floor;
to a Side wall; and to combustible materials.
3a. Models CIR 150-1 I and CIR 150-1 O must plug in to a properly grounded 120 V outlet controlled by a timer switch. Ensure the
electrical outlet is readily accessible to be able to disconnect the heater when needed.
3b. Models CIR 200-2 must be connected to a properly grounded 240 V copper wire circuit controlled by a timer switch.
3c. Model CIR 400-2 O must be connected to two (2) independent grounded 240 V copper wire circuits controlled by a timer switch.
4. The heater should never be placed nor mounted directly under a wall electrical outlet.
5. A minimum distance of 3 ft (36 inches) [90 cm] must be maintained between the front grille and flammable items (e.g. curtains),
walls and other structures.
6. Do not allow an electrical cord to pass in front of the heater or to touch any hot surface.
7. Since the appliance radiates heat, no obstruction or object such as furniture should be placed between the heater and the person
being heated.
8. Do not use heater on a soft surface, like a bed, where air openings may become blocked.
9. A heater has hot surfaces and potentially arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable
vapors or liquids are used or stored.
