IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons or property, including the following:
-
Read all instructions before using this heater.
-
This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Use handles when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least 3′ (0.9 m) from the front and top of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear. Keep the rear grille away from walls or drapes so as not to block the air intake.
-
Extreme caution and supervision is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or pets, and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.
-
Always unplug heater when not in use.
-
Do not operate heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions, or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Discard heater or return to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.
-
Do not use outdoors.
-
This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor locations. Never locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
-
Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it will
not be tripped over. -
To disconnect the heater, turn control to OFF, then remove the plug from the outlet.
-
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage to the heater.
-
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. -
A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it
in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or
stored. -
Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric
shock, injury to persons, or other damage to property. Ensure the heater is on a stable, secure surface to eliminate the potential of tipping it over. To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is plugged into the same outlet (receptacle) or into another outlet (receptacle) wired into the same circuit. -
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. Worn outlets or receptacles should be replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging heater into a worn outlet/receptacle may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
-
Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).
-
Check your heater cord and plug connections. A loose fitting outlet can cause the plug to overheat or cause a fire. Be sure 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.
-
Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances, overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not occurred with the other appliances.
-
Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable has been damaged in any way during transportation.
-
Make sure that no pieces of polystyrene or other packaging material have been left between elements of the appliance. It may be necessary to clean the appliance.
-
Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
-
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE
SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
DANGER-HIGH TEMPERATURES MAY BE GENERATED UNDER CERTAIN ABNORMAL CONDITION. DO
NOT PARTIALLY OR FULLY COVER OR OBSTRUCT THE FRONT OF THIS HEATER. FOR
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
