Once the heater is restored to an upright position, the heater will reset. To continue operation, press the power button on the control panel or remote control.
Overheat Safety Feature
This heater is equipped with an overheat safety feature. When the heater’s internal components reach a certain temperature that could cause overheating and possible fire, the heater will automatically shut off.
WARNING: It is normal for the power cord to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose fit between the outlet and the plug may cause overheating of the plug. If this occurs, try inserting the plug into a different outlet. Contact a qualified electrician to inspect the original outlet for damage.
This heater is equipped with an ALCI plug. Ensure you check the ALCI safety feature every time you use your machine. The purpose of this test is to make sure the safety device is working.

Operation Notes:
Please remember that with any type of heating process there are many variables; size of the room, how well the room is insulated, how many doors/windows, how much bare concrete (which acts as a heat sink with any type of heating), the opening and closing of an exterior door, etc. Therefore, heating performance will vary in every environment.
Heating will vary based on how open your floor plan is and the sizes of the rooms involved.
Rooms with little insulation will not retain the heat as efficiently and may result in your heater running longer or more often.
It may take longer to heat a room with vaulted or cathedral ceilings initially. Once the room has reached the desired temperature it will cycle on and off accordingly.
This heater may be used in a basement or garage if it is finished with drywall and carpet.
This heater cannot be moved while it is running. If moving heater, it must first be turned to the off position and then moved once the fan has completely turned off.
You may run heater and another appliance at the same time if they are not on the same electrical circuit.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Disconnect power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury. First turn the main power switch to the “OFF” position, wait for the fan to stop blowing to ensure the inside of the heater has been properly cooled. Then remove the electrical plug from the wall outlet.

1. Turn the POWER OFF.
