WarNiNG:

Procedures and techniques if not carefully followed will result in damage to the 
equipment and will expose the user to the risk of serious injury, illness or death. 
This electric fireplace heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord features a three-prong 
plug as shown at “A” in illustration below. An adapter, as shown at “C”, is available 
for connecting a three-prong grounded type plug to a two-slotted wall receptacle. 
The green grounding plug extending from the adapter must be connected to a 
permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not 
be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available. 
A 15 AMP circuit is required to operate this heater. If the breaker trips when the 
heater is used then you may need to move the heater to another location or unplug 
other appliances that are on the same circuit. If you require an extension cord use 
one that is rated at 1875 watts.
