NOTE
A 13amp, 230VAC circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred but not essential in all cases. A
dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows on a regular
basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current
rating of the circuit breaker.
WARNING
Ensure the power cord is not installed so that it is pinched or against a sharp edge and ensure that the
power cord is stored or secured to avoid tripping or snagging to reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock or
injury to persons.
Construction and electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable
