1. WARNING: Risk of fire. Do not use as a
residential or household heater.
2. Do not use outdoors.
3. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms,
laundry areas, and similar indoor locations.
4. CAUTION: Do not operate without stand
attached.
5. Heater must be kept clear of all obstructions:
3 foot minimum clearance from front, 6 inch
minimum clearance from back and top, and 12
inch minimum clearance from sides. See Figure
3.
6. Always plug the heater directly into a 240 volt
wall receptacle. Never use an extension cord.
The Hot One may sit on a floor surface or be mounted to the wall using the universal stand provided. If mounted on the
wall, maintain 6 inch minimum clearance from the top of the unit to the ceiling. The Hot One is not recommended for
ceiling mount. Recommended for elevations under 7500 feet.
This heater is for use on 240 volts. The cord has a 20 amp or 30 amp plug as shown in Figure 1. No adapter is available for these blade
configurations, and none should be used. The RCP requires a 240 volt grounded receptacle. When properly installed, it provides a
ground connection through the cord to the heater to protect the operator from electric shock. Do not use an extension cord, power strip
or any kind of adapter.
