PREPARATION
Place the heater on a firm, level surface and plug into a grounded 120 V, 60 Hz power outlet and turn on
the power switch on the rear of the unit . Only operate heater in upright position .
Insert two AAA batteries into the remote control before using (batteries not included) . *(Not all products
will include a remote control .)
Please note that infrared heaters do not heat like a traditional space heater . You should not expect infrared
heaters to blow hot air like a traditional space heater . Infrared heaters heat objects not air . Infrared heaters
are intended to supplement an already heated, insulated room . Square footage specifications assume a
single enclosed room not an entire home . Infrared heaters do not heat through walls, floors, and are
not intended to replace a main heat source . Infrared heat can take at least 24 hours to warm a room but
operate much more efficiently to maintain the desired temperature . Infrared heaters will not work well in
uninsulated unheated spaces like screened in porches, RV’s, garages, unheated basements, etc .
