INSTALLATION WARNING:  To reduce risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons, observe the following:

• 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.
• Do not use this heater in an RV, boat or during any application where battery power is converted to AC power.
• Place this product at least 3 feet away on all sides from electrical outlets, furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, curtains and other objects that may cause or catch on fire. 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.
• To prevent a possible fire, do not place the heater on soft surfaces, like a bed, where air intakes or exhaust can be blocked in any manner.
• No part of this product (the appliance, power cord, plug, packaging, etc.) should be placed near furnaces, fireplaces, stoves or other high temperature heat sources.
• Do not use on an uneven or unstable surface.
• Do not use this product on an elevated surface such as a shelf or desktop. Use only while placed on the floor. Operate only in the upright position.
• This appliance, power supply, power cord and plug cannot come into contact with water. Do not use this product on wet surfaces. Do not use this product in a bathtub or shower or position where it may fall into a bathtub, shower, laundry, swimming pool or other water container. Do not use in a window, outdoors, or exposed to weather or elements.

• Do not modify the product with any aftermarket accessory.

SAFE USE WARNING:  To reduce risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons, observe the following:

• Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
• Extreme caution is required at all times a heater is in operation. Always unplug heater when not in use. Vornado does not recommend unattended and unsupervised use of this heater.
• This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use handles when moving this heater.
• Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).
• Do not use this heater on a surge-protected unit or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupted (GFCI) outlet.
• Before plugging power cord into electrical outlet, be sure that all electrical information on the rating label, including voltage, is compatible with your outlet’s power supply.
• To reduce likelihood of circuit overload, fire and electric shock, do not operate with a solid state speed device, such as a dimmer control switch. 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.
• Use of this appliance on the same electrical circuit as another high energy use product, such as a vacuum cleaner, blender, variable speed fan or circular saw is not advised.
• Risk of fire. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Discard heater, or return to a Vornado authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.
• Do not sit or stand on product.
• Never use the cord as a handle or otherwise yank, strain or stretch the power cord.
• 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 the heater.
• 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.
• Never ignore the signs of an electrical problem, such as: warm outlet coverplates, sparks when plugging in or operating, lights flickering/dimming during operation. Immediately turn off and unplug the appliance if any such problems are noticed. Contact a qualified electrician to investigate possible causes before operating the appliance again.
• Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances, overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not occurred with the other appliances.
• Before moving, repositioning, servicing, cleaning and when not in use, use the product controls to turn off the power and then unplug. To disconnect from outlet, grasp and pull only the plug. Also, power off and unplug if the product will be left unattended for an extended period of time or during electrical storms.
• This product’s power cord is equipped with a three-prong, grounded plug that must be inserted into a grounded receptacle. Connect to properly grounded outlets only.
• This heater is for use with 120 volt electrical outlets. The cord has a plug as shown at A in Figure 68.1, below. An adapter as shown at C is available for connecting three-blade groundingtype 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.

If your heater suddenly stops working:

• This heater is equipped with a thermal cutout safety feature designed to automatically shut off when overheating is detected. See the “RESET HEATER” instructions in this guide to determine how to check and reset the heater.
• If the heater and other electrical products suddenly stop working at the same time, your home circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped due to an overload of power. Consider only running your heater on the “low” setting, only running one heater at once and unplugging all other electrical products while running the heater, and/or hiring an electrician to install an additional circuit to your home’s electrical system.

SERVICING WARNING:  To reduce risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons, observe the following:

   • Note: Do not use gasoline, thinners, solvents or other chemicals for cleaning.
   • Note: Do not modify Sensa with any aftermarket accessory.
   • Tip: You should periodically blow out Sensa with pressurized air to keep heat element and motor clear of dust, hair and debris that can build up inside the heater as it moves air during use. This also eliminates unwanted odors caused by accumulation of these particles inside the unit.

Always unplug Sensa before starting any part of the cleaning process.
