OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT NOTICE: This heater is a major electrical appli-
ance and requires adequate electrical power. The outlet to
which this heater is connected must be a 120 volt (AC) circuit
protected by a 15 or 20 amp fuse or circuit breaker. No other
major electrical appliance should be operated in the same circuit
as the heater.
Care must be given in locating and using the heater to avoid
blocking the heater in any way to allow air to flow freely through
the heater. Keeping the heater clean will also improve the effi-
ciency and prevent overheating - see Maintenance Instructions.
1. Your heater is provided with a Pilot Light (ON/OFF) switch
and a temperature control thermostat.
2. To operate your heater simply:
a. Plug heater power supply cord into 120 volt outlet (see
warning 1).
b. Push on/off switch to on position. NOTE: The Pilot Light
(ON/OFF) switch will illuminate when in the ON position.
c. Rotate thermostat knob in a clockwise direction until it
stops.
3. Allow the heater to operate normally until the room tempera-
ture is comfortable to you. Then simply rotate the knob coun-
terclockwise until an audible click is heard. The thermostat
will automatically cycle the heater on and off as needed to
maintain the desired room temperature.
NOTE:
You may notice a new smell coming from your heater
during initial use. Operate the heater on its highest setting for at
least one hour to minimize the new smell. You may also notice it
does not heat up immediately. Because of the special tubular
element design, it takes a few minutes before you can feel the
warmth through the cabinet.
1.
The heater plug must fit tightly into outlet. A loose fitting or
worn outlet may allow for the plug connection to heat, dam-
age to the plug and/or outlet and may cause a fire. If outlet
is loose or worn, discontinue using heater until the outlet
can be replaced.
2.

Drapes, And Other Furnishings Away From Heater. Do not
allow curtains or other furnishing to contact heater.

heater at all times.
3. To reduce the risk of fire, do not store or use gasoline or
other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of the
heater.
