WARNING
Serious injury or death could occur if the portable
heater is not properly grounded. Your heater is
powered by electricity and may cause electric shock or
electrocution if not used properly.

attempted by unqualified persons.
• Installation of this unit, including all electrical connections, must
comply with all local, state and national codes.
• This product must be grounded. Connect to a GFCI circuit breaker
when available. If the unit should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. Do not ground to a gas supply line.
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electrocution. Check with a qualified electrician
or service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the system is
properly grounded.
• Always be certain the unit is receiving proper voltage. Specified on
the model plate of the heater. Use only a three-prong, grounded outlet
and extension cord.
• Keep all connections dry and install the heater so that it is not directly
exposed to water spray, rain, dripping water or wind.
• Any electrical wiring or repairs performed on this heater should be
done by Authorized Service Personnel in accordance with National
and Local electrical codes.

WARNING
Serious injury could occur from touching exposed metal
parts. These areas can remain hot for some time after
the heater is turned off.
• Never allow any part of your body or other materials to make contact
with any exposed metal parts on the heater.
