CAUTION 

 
When using electrical appliances, basic preparations should always be followed to reduce 
the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following: 
 

 

Read all instructions before using the heater. 

 

This heater is hot when in use.  To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot 
surfaces.  Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, 
clothes and curtains at least 39” (1000mm) from the front of the heater and keep 
them away from the sides and rear. 

 

Do not touch any part of the heater while it is turned on or for 30 minutes after it is 
turned off. 

 

Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or 
invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended. 

 

Do not operate any heater after the heater malfunctions, or has been dropped or 
damaged in any manner.  Return heater to an authorised service facility for 
examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair. 

 

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; for example pool or spa. 

 

The heater is fitted with an electrical connection box and should be connected as a 
fixed installation by a licensed electrical professional in accordance with the relevant 
electrical code. 

 

The heater is required to be fitted with an “ON/OFF” isolation switch and can also be 
controlled via thermostat, timer or dimmer type control.  A wall switch should be 
installed on fixed wire installations.  The heater should also be connected via an 
R.C.D. (Residual Current Device). 

 

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. 

 

To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. 

 

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. 

 

Use this heater only as described in the manual.  Any other use not recommended 
by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 

 

Save these instructions.
