Patent pending Safer Sensor™ information
This product is equipped with a Safer Sensor; an advanced safety device
that helps prevent heaters from being accidently covered or blocked
causing a potentially unsafe condition.
The Safer Sensor detects if an object is too close to the front of the heater
potentially obstructing the air outlet. If blocked, the control panel will flash
“E5” icon and the heater will be turned off. Once the object has been
moved and after the user presses the power button, “E5” will disappear
and the unit will be back on the previous setting with the heat on.
This product is equipped with a Safer Plug
®
, which is an advanced safety
device that helps detect electrical fires caused from faulty outlets.
Overloading of outlets, adapters and surge protectors may cause
overheating, damage, and increased risk of fires. The Safer Plug
continuously monitors the temperature in the plug and outlet and will turn
off the heater to prevent unsafe outlet overheating.
If the Safer Plug cuts the power due to unsafe conditions it will show an
“ Er ” message on the screen. If this occurs the Safer Plug has prevented
a potentially unsafe condition.
To reset the device if this occurs, first allow the plug to cool down. Once
the plug has cooled down, unplug the device and wait 5 seconds, then
plug back in and continue to use normally.
If the Safer Plug continues to activate, your outlet may be faulty. Check
your heater cord and plug connections. Faulty wall outlet connections or
loose plugs can cause the outlet or plug to overheat. Be sure the plug fits
tight in the outlet. Heaters draw more current than small appliances.
Overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not occurred with the
use of other appliances. During use check frequently to determine if your
plug outlet or faceplate is HOT! If so, discontinue use of the heater and
have a qualified electrician check and/or replace the faulty outlet(s).
