Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should al-
ways be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and
injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the heater.
2. The heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let
bare skin touch hot surfaces. The trim around the heater
outlet becomes hot during heater operation. Keep com-
bustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, pa-
pers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 ft (0.9 m) from the
front of the unit and keep them away from the sides and
rear.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by
or near children or invalids and whenever the unit is left
operating and unattended.
4. Do not operate any heater after it malfunctions. Discon-
nect power at the service panel and have the heater in-
spected by a reputable electrician before reusing.
5. Do not use outdoors.
6. To disconnect the unit, turn the controls off, and then
switch off at main power supply panel.
7. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any venti-
lation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric
shock or fire, or damage to the heater.
8. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intake or ex-
haust in any manner.
9. All electrical heaters have hot and arcing or sparking parts
inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or flam-
mable liquids are used or stored.
10. Do not modify this heater. Use it only as described in this
manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufac-
turer may cause fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, do not store or use
gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of
the heater.
CAUTION:
High temperature, risk of fire, keep electrical
cords, drapery, furnishings, and other combustibles at least
3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the heater.
!
NOTE:
It is extremely important to read all information la-
bels. Care must be taken to ensure that the heater is rated
the same voltage as the electrical supply wires. Failure to
do so could result in unsafe heater operation as well as
damage to the unit. If replacing an existing heater, check
the labels of the old heater to ensure the voltage of the new
heater is compatible.
!
NOTE:
Care must be taken to prevent undue strain on all
wiring or heating element assembly, when removing and
re-assembling heating element assembly.
CAUTION:
For field rewiring to 120V all leads must be se-
cured under wire clamps.
!
NOTE:
Air and grille temperatures conform to CSA & UL
regulations but may discolour certain materials, particularly
those materials incorporating clear vinyl. Materials should
be checked prior to installation to determine if discoloura-
tion or distortion would occur in the vicinity of 60° C (140°
F)

under sink or other frequently used work area as air tempera-
ture may be uncomfortably warm. Also, if carpeting is on floor,
mount unit so bottom of grille is level or above the top of the
carpet pile.

room for the grille frame, the frame may be removed by re-
moving grille frame from heater (screw “A”), remove frame
and re-insert grille.
