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 .
