IMPORTANT

INSTRUCTIONS

1-  Read all instructions before installing or using this heater.
2-  This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let 
 

bare skin touch hot surfaces. Keep combustible materials, 

 

like furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and 

 

curtains at least 36 in. (915 mm) from the front of the heater.

3-  Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by 
 

or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left

 

operating and unattended.

4-  Do not operate any heater after it malfunctions. Disconnect
 

power at service panel and have heater inspected by a 

 

reputable electrician before reusing.

5-  Do not use outdoors.
6-  Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any 
 

ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric 

 

shock or fi re, or damage the heater.

7-  Do not block air intakes or exhaust in any way whatsoever. 
8-  This heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. 
 

Do not use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or fl ammable 

 

liquids are used or stored.

use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fi re, 

 

electric shock, or injury.

10-  Models up to 6000W maximum and 240V maximum:
 

These heaters include a visual alarm to warn that parts of 

 

the heater are getting excessively hot. If the light turns on, 

 

immediately turn the heater off and inspect for any objects 

 

on or adjacent to the heater that may have blocked the 

 

airfl ow or otherwise caused high temperatures to have
