   Arrange the cord away from traffic areas to avoid a tripping hazard.

8. To disconnect the heater, turn controls to OFF, then remove the plug from outlet.

9. 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.

10. Connect to properly grounded outlets only.

11. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust openings in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings may become blocked. Use the heater on flat, dry surfaces only.

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. Worn outlets or receptacles should be replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging this heater into a worn outlet may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.

18. Make sure the plug is fully inserted into an appropriate receptacle. Be mindful that receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and continuous use.
