• 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, or injury to persons.
• ALWAYS plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. NEVER use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).
• 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.
• NEVER use this heater in bathrooms, laundry rooms, or any other location where the heater could fall into a bathtub or pool, become damp, or come in contact with water.
• AVOID FIRE! Regularly inspect all air vents to make sure they are free from dust, lint, or another blockage. Unplug the unit and clean with a vacuum ONLY. DO NOT rinse or get wet.
• NEVER hang this unit on a wall directly below an electrical outlet.
• NEVER permanently install in a recessed area of the wall. This may result in blocked air flow, overheating, or fire.
• ALWAYS mount to wall bracket before use. When setting on the floor, or other surface, you need to install the metal stand brackets to use.
• NEVER use a wall mount bracket from another manufacturer.
• For residential use only! NOT for commercial use! Any commercial or public use of this heater voids all warranties and could cause injury.
• This product is not intended to be a primary heat source. It is for supplemental heat only.

• Place the heater near a wall outlet so an extension cord is not needed. If an extension cord is needed, the gauge of the cord must be at least 14AWG, and the rating must be at least 1875 Watts.
• NEVER use a smaller gauge cord with a lower rating. Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
• ONLY use this heater on a 120V AC 15-Amp grounded circuit. NEVER overload the circuit. If this heater trips the circuit breaker, unplug all other appliances on the same circuit before the next use. Avoid plugging other appliances into the same circuit as this heater.
• NEVER plug this heater into an outlet that is old, cracked, or has any loose wires or connections. Plugging this heater into a faulty outlet could result in electric arcing within the outlet that could cause the outlet to overheat or catch fire.
• ALWAYS check your heater cord and plug connections with each use!

1. MAKE SURE the plug fits tight in the outlet! Faulty wall outlet connections or loose plugs can cause the outlet to overheat.
2. Heaters draw more current than small appliances. Overheating may occur even if it has not occurred with the use of other appliances.
3. During use check frequently to see if the plug outlet or face plate is HOT!
4. If the outlet or face plate is HOT, discontinue use immediately and have a qualified electrician inspect and/or replace the faulty outlets.

The power cord supplied with the heater has three prongs: two flat blades (live and neutral) and one round pin (ground). If a 3-slot receptacle is not available, an adapter MUST be used. The adapter MUST be properly grounded to the outlet box (see figure at right). [NOTE: Adapter NOT INCLUDED.]
