9. To disconnect the appliance, turn controls to off, wait for heater to cool down and shut off, and then
remove plug from outlet.
10. Connect to properly polarized outlets only. This product requires a three prong outlet with ground.
11. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter into ventilation opening as this may cause an electric
shock, fire or damage the appliance.
12. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft
surfaces, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.
13. The heater has hot parts and sparking parts inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or
flammable liquids are used or stored.
14. Use this appliance only as described in this manual. Any use not recommended by the manufacturer
may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
15. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet receptacle. Do not use an extension cord.
16. To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is plugged into the same
outlet on the same circuit.
17. It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug or cord which becomes
hot to the touch or becomes distorted in shape may be a result of a worn electrical outlet (receptacle).
Worn outlets or receptacles should be replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging this heater
into a worn outlet (receptacle) may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
18. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into an appropriate receptacle. Please remember that
receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and continuous use: check outlet and cord periodically for
signs of overheating or deformations of the plug. If any overheating or deformation is present,
immediately discontinue using the receptacle and contact a qualified electrician.
19. CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot of receptacle and insert
completely.
20. Do not cover the appliance while it is functioning in order to avoid overheating and/or risk of fire.
21. Do not place the heater near a bed because objects such as pillows or blankets can fall off the bed
and be ignited by the heater.
