OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Use this Heater only as described in this manual. Any other use
not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electrical
shock, or injury to persons.
2. Make certain that the power source conforms to the electrical re-
quirements of the Heater.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any Heater is used by or
near children or invalids and whenever the Heater is left op-
erating unattended.
4. The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounded plug
that must be inserted into a matching receptacle. Under no cir-
cumstances should the ground prong be cut off the plug. Where
a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be replaced
with a properly grounded three-prong receptacle installed in ac-
cordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all appli-
cable local codes and ordinances. This work must be done by a
qualified electrician, using copper wires only.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE A THREE-PRONG ADAPTER. IM-
PROPER CONNECTION MAY CAUSE THIS RISK OF ELEC-
TROCUTION. USE OF SUCH ADAPTERS IS NOT PERMITTED
IN CANADA.
5. Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords because the ex-
tension cord may overheat and cause a risk of fire. If they must be
used, minimize the risk of overheating by ensuring that they are
UL listed, a minimum No. 14 AWG, rated not less than 1875 watts.
Never use a single extension cord to operate more than one Heater.

Heater malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
Return Heater to authorized service facility for examination, electrical
or mechanical adjustment or repair.

unplug Heater when not in use.
WARNING:

SOLE MEANS OF DISCONNECTING POWER WHEN SERVICING
OR MOVING THE HEATER. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
8. Do not insert or allow fingers or foreign objects to enter any venti-
lation or exhaust opening as it may cause an electric shock or fire,
or damage the Heater. Do not block or tamper with the Heater in
any manner while it is in operation.
9. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any
manner. Do not place on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings
may become blocked.
10.Always place the Heater on a stable, flat, level surface when operating, to
avoid the chance of the Heater overturning. Locate the Power Cord so
the Heater or other objects are not resting on it. Do not run Power Cord
