SPECIFICATIONS
Read all instructions before using this heater.
1.
Make certain that the power source conforms to the
electrical requirements of the heater
2.
Unplug power cord before installing or servicing.
WARNING: DO NOT DEPEND UPON A THERMOSTAT OR
OTHER
SWITCH
AS
THE
SOLE
MEANS
OF
DISCONNECTING
POWER
WHEN
INSTALLING
OR
SERVICING THE HEATER. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE HEATER.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN FATAL ELECTRIC
SHOCK.
3.
NEVER
leave the heater unattended for extended periods,
while it is in operation.
4.
Power
cord
is
equipped
with
a
three-wire
bonding
(grounding) type plug that must be inserted into a matching
receptacle.
Under no circumstances should the bonding
prong be cut off plug. Where a two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it must be replaced with a properly bonded
(grounded) three-prong receptacle installed in accordance
with the National Electric Code (NEC) and all applicable
local codes and ordinances. This work must be done only
by
a
qualified
electrician,
using
copper
wire
only.
WARNING: USE OF A THREE-PRONG TO TWO-PRONG
ADAPTER
IS
NOT
RECOMMENDED.
Improper
connection may create the risk of electrocution. Use of
such adapters is not permitted in Canada. This applies
to Model CH-2212-1C.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
5.
All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
6.
This heater can be used for 120V, single phase (Model CH-
2212-1C), or 240V,single phase (Model CH-6424-1C). These
units are supplied with 3-wire cordsets for portability.
To
reduce the risk of electric shock, the heater must be
securely and adequately bonded (grounded)!
This can be
accomplished by either: 1) Inserting the plug directly into a
properly
installed
and
bonded
3-prong
bonding
type
receptacle.
2) Permanently wiring the unit with a bonded,
metal raceway system.
3) Using a separate bonding wire
connected to the bare metal of the heater.
4) Using other
suitable means. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in
the cord is the bonding (grounding) wire.
WARNING:
Never connect the green (or green and yellow)
wire to a live terminal!
7.
Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords.
If they
must be used, minimize the risk of overheating by ensuring
that they are UL Listed and are of the proper gauge and
length, and that they have 3-prong bonding (grounding) type
plugs. Use 3-pole receptacles that accept the 3-prong plugs.
Never use a single extension cord to operate more than one
heater.
8.
Do not insert fingers or foreign objects into the heater. Do not
block or tamper with the heater while it is in operation. Do not
touch heater while it is in operation or just after it has been
turned off, as some parts may be hot enough to cause injury.
