same electrical circuit as another high energy use product,
such as a vacuum cleaner, blender, variable speed fan or
circular saw is not advised. Do not use this heater with a timer
designed to automatically turn the unit on or off, as this may
accidentally disable the heater’s thermal cutout safety feature.

plug fits tight in the outlet. Check frequently during use to
make sure plug and outlet are not hot. If so, discontinue using
heater and have outlet replaced by a qualified electrician.
