use your heater outdoors. Do not use near sinks, swimming pools, or
other damp areas such as flooded basements, garages, etc. or any place
where the heater could come in contact with water.

will not be tripped over.
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.
10.
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.
11.
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.
12.
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.
13.
Avoid the use of an extension cord because the extension cord may
overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an
extension cord, the cord shall be No. 14 AWG minimum size and rated
not less than 1875 watts. When using an extension cord, you must fully
insert the plug into the extension cord. Do not use the extension cord if
the plug can be properly connected.
14.
This heater draws 12.5 amps during operation. To prevent overloading a
circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that already has other
appliances working.
15.
It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose fit
between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and
distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or
worn outlet.
16.
The output of this heater may vary and its temperature may become
intense enough to burn exposed skin. Use of this is not recommended
for persons with reduced sensitivity to heat or an inability to react to
avoid burns.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
•
Plug cord into any 120 Volt 60Hz. outlets.
•
CONNECTION: This heater is for use on 120 Volt A.C. only. If this
appliance is equipped with a three pronged grounded cord set an
adapter is available for connecting three blade grounding type
plugs to two slot receptacles. The adapter’s green grounding plug
or metal grounding strip must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. Failure to make a
proper grounding connection will defeat this safety feature. An
adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is
available.
•
Check periodically for secure plug/outlet fit. If the plug does not
fit snugly into the outlet or if the plug becomes very hot, the
outlet may need to be replaced. Check with a qualified electrician
to replace outlet.
