GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

basic precautions should always be followed
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to person,
1. Read all instructions before using Heater.
2. Use this Heater only as described in this manual. Any
other use not recommended by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons.
3. Make certain that the power source conforms to the
electrical requirements of the Heater.
4. Extreme caution is necessary when any Heater
is used by or near children or invalids and when-
ever the Heater is left operating unattended.
5. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the out-
let, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this
safety feature.
6. Where possible, avoid the use of extension cords be-
cause the extension cord may overheat and cause a
risk of fire. If they must be used, minimize the risk of
overheating by ensuring that they are UL listed, a
minimum No. 14 AWG, rated not less than 1875 watts.
Never use a single extension cord to operate more
than one Heater.
7. Do not operate any Heater with a damaged cord or
plug or after the Heater malfunctions, has been dropped
or damaged in any manner. Return Heater to autho-
rized service facility for examination, electrical or me-
chanical adjustment or repair.
8. Unplug power cord before servicing or moving the
Heater. Always unplug Heater when not in use.
WARNING: DO NOT DEPEND ON THE ON/OFF
SWITCH AS THE SOLE MEANS OF DISCONNECT-
ING POWER WHEN SERVICING OR MOVING THE
HEATER. ALWAYS UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
