the manufacturer deems no further responsibility for this product.
• The following instructions must be followed to in order to avoid personal injuries or
property damages, and potentially fatal electric shocks.
1.This product must be installed and connected by a certified electrician, according to
the electrical and building codes effective in your region.
2.Protect the heating unit with the appropriate circuit breaker or fuse, in accordance
with electrical specifications found on the heater's nameplate.
3.Make sure the supply line voltage is consistent with that indicated on the unit's

Recommended heating capacity :
1.25 W/cubic foot (0.03 m³).
This heating capacity corresponds to 10 W/square foot (0.09 m²) based on a standard
ceiling height of 8 feet (2.44 m). The recommended capacity is usually sufficient for
normal heating needs. Please note that the insulation quality of walls and windows
are some of the factors that influence heat losses, which modify the required capacity
to heat a room. To heat a large room and to increase your comfort, it is
recommended to install several units instead of one. For example, 2 X 1000 W rather
than 1 X 2000 W.
7.If the unit capacity is insufficient for the size of the room, it will be in operation
continuously, and may become defective earlier and turn yellow.
8.Respect distances and positions indicated in the installation section. If the installer or
the user modifies the unit, he will be held responsible for any damage resulting from
this modification, and the CETL certification could be void.
9.This unit must not come into contact with any water source and must be protected
from splashes. Do not use it if any part has been immersed.
