CAUTION:
• If possible, ALWAYS unplug this firebox when not in use.
• DO NOT operate any firebox with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions.

firebox inspected by a reputable electrician before reusing.
• Any repairs to this unit should be carried out by appropriately qualified service personnel.
• Under no circumstances should this unit be modified. Parts having to be removed for servicing must be replaced prior to
operating this unit again.
• DO NOT use outdoors.
• This unit is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations. NEVER place heater where it may
fall into a bathtub or other water container.
• To disconnect this unit, turn all controls to the OFF position, then remove plug from outlet.
• ONLY connect to properly grounded outlets.
• This appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, with the current CSA C22.1
Canadian Electrical Code or, for USA installations, follow the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA NO.70.
• To prevent a possible fire, DO NOT block any air intakes or exhaust in any manner. DO NOT use on soft surfaces, like a
bed, where opening may become blocked.
• ALWAYS plug this unit directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. NEVER use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap
(outlet/power strip).
• This heater includes an automatic protection system that will shut off the unit to prevent overheating. If the unit is at risk of
overheating, the front panel will display "E1" and a thermal cut out will shut off the heater to prevent damage or risk of fire.
• DO NOT slide firebox on top of wood to avoid scratching wood surface.
• DO NOT place any objects on top of firebox and top air intake vents as this will cause the unit to overheat and can cause a
fire.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
• A 15-amp, 120-volt, 60 Hz circuit with a properly grounded
outlet is required. Preferably, the fireplace will be on
a dedicated circuit as other appliances on the same
circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse
to blow when the heater is in operation. The unit comes
standard with 6-ft. three-wire cord, exiting from the rear
of the fireplace. DO NOT exceed the current rating of
the current tap. ALWAYS plug this unit directly into a wall
outlet/receptacle. NEVER use with an extension cord or
relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).
• This firebox is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as
shown below. See illustration for grounding instruction. An
adapter as shown at C is available for connecting three-
blade grounding type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The
green grounding lug 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.
