such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least 3' (0.9 m) from the
front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.

whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.

dropped or damaged in any manner. Return heater to authorized service facility for
examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

locations. Never locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.

items. Arrange cord away from high-traffic areas where it can be tripped over.
9. CAUTION: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of shock,this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized
outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to alter this safety feature. Doing so
could result in an electric shock hazard.
10. This heater draws 12.5 A during operation. To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug
the heater into a circuit that already has other appliances working.
11. CAUTION: It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose fit
between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and distortion
of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.
12. To disconnect the heater, first turn controls to the OFF position, then remove plug from
outlet. Never pull by the cord.
13. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may
cause an electric shock or fire, or damage the heater.

soft surface, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.
15. A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in the areas where
gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
16. Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
17. CAUTION: Avoid the use of an extension cord because the extension cord may
overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an extension cord,
the cord shall be No. 14 AWG minimum size and rated not less than 1875 W.
18. The output of this heater may vary and its temperature may become intense enough
to burn exposed skin. Use of this heater is not recommended for persons with reduced
