Troubleshooting - Magnavox MVH-2000 Manual

PREPARATION
Place the heater on a firm, level surface and plug into a grounded 120 V, 60 Hz power outlet and turn on
the power switch on the rear of the unit . Only operate heater in upright position .
Insert two AAA batteries into the remote control before using (batteries not included) .
Please note that infrared heaters do not heat like a traditional space heater . You should not expect
infrared heaters to blow hot air like a traditional space heater . Infrared heaters heat objects not air .
Infrared heaters are intended to supplement an already heated, insulated room . Square footage specifi-
cations assume a single enclosed room not an entire home . Infrared heaters do not heat through walls,
floors, and are not intended to replace a main heat source . Infrared heat can take at least 24 hours to
warm a room but operate much more efficiently to maintain the desired temperature . Infrared heaters
will not work well in uninsulated unheated spaces like screened in porches, RV's, garages, unheated
basements, etc .
