Use & Operation

7. Turn On Heating Units

Plug each heating unit into the included timers, then plug
included timers into outlets. Select the appropriate time
setting on the timer by pressing the "on" button to cycle
through the time options after the timer is plugged in.
We recommend using the 8 hour setting for large
loads and the 4 hour setting for small to medium loads.
Always use the included thermometer to confirm that
temperature reaches lethal levels (see step 6).

that if the unit is knocked over (possibly blocking the
vents) it turns off for safety. When the heating unit is

Safety Note: Each heating unit draws 1500 watts of electrical power. Each
heating unit should be plugged into separate circuits, using the included
extension cord if necessary.
