This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is intended
to fit a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, consult a qualified electrician. Do not connect the heater to extension
cords, surge protectors, timers, direct breakers, or an outlet with other appliances connected
to the same outlet.
Risk of fire, overheat, malfunction, property damage, injury, or even
death may result if not adhered to!
11.
Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
12.
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter ventilation or exhaust openings, as this may cause an electric shock
or fire, or damage the heater.
13.
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.
14.
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.
15.
Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock, injury to persons or other damage to property.
16.
This heater must be plugged into a 120V, 15 amp (or more) circuit of its own. Nothing else can be plugged
into the same circuit. If unsure if you home meets this specification, consult a certified electrician prior to
use.
Risk of fire, overheat, malfunction, property damage, injury, or even death may result if not
adhered to!
17.
To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is plugged into the same outlet or into
another outlet wired into the same circuit.
18.
It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug or cord that becomes hot to the
touch or becomes distorted in shape may be a result of a worn electrical outlet. Worn outlets or receptacles
should be replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging heater into a worn outlet/receptacle may
result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
19.
Ensure the heater is on a stable, secure surface to eliminate the potential of tipping over.
20.
Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or
relocatable power tap (outlet /power strip).
21.
Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into appropriate receptacle. Please remember that receptacles also
deteriorate due to aging and continuous use: check periodically for signs of overheating or deformations
evidenced by the plug. Do not use the receptacle and CALL your electrician.
22.
Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable has been damaged in any way during transportation.
23.
Make sure that no pieces of polystyrene or other packaging material have been left between elements of the
appliance. It may be necessary to pass over the appliance with a vacuum cleaner.
24.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.
