3. The heater cord requires an
adaptor/extension cord, which is
available from your dealer. Plug
this adaptor/extension cord into
the heater's electrical cord.
4. Plug the adaptor/extension cord
into a normal, grounded 220-volt
AC outlet.
5. Before starting the engine, be
sure to unplug and store the
adaptor/extension cord, and
place the heater's electrical cord
as it was before to keep it away
from moving engine parts. If you
do not it could be damaged.
The length of time the heater should
remain plugged in depends on
several factors. Ask a dealer in the
area where you will be parking the
vehicle for the best advice on this.
