To use the block heater:
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Unwrap the electrical cord
and plug it in. It uses a

grounded outlet. You can use a
heavy-duty extension cord
(rated for at least 15 amps)
connected to a properly
grounded outlet.
Ask a dealer in the area how long
you should keep the heater
plugged in.
Be sure to unplug and restow the
cord before starting the engine.
Otherwise, it may be damaged by
moving engine parts.
