Care, Maintenance, and Storage
Before care or maintenance is applied, always unplug the cord from the receptacle. The cabinet
housing can be wiped down with water and a damp cloth or with furniture polish. The heater has a
washable filter. The filter should be cleaned regularly to provide for maximum performance. Once
the filter is removed, run warm water through and over the filter to remove dirt and dust. Shake all
water residue from the filter and replace it back in the heater. (Note: A mild soap can be applied to
assist in removing dirt and dust from the filter)
If the heater is not to be used for an extended period of time, it can be stored away. Make sure the
power is turned off and the cord is unplugged from the receptacle. Wrap the cord around the
handle on the rear of the portable heater. Cover the heater to prevent dust from accumulating on
the heater. You may want to repack it back in its original carton. Always store the heater in a dry
and dust free environment.
(Note: You may want to clean the filter prior to storing the heater away so that it is ready for
operation the next time it is put in use.)
