PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When using electrical appliances, basic
precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, including
the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this heater.
2. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use handles
when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and
curtains at least 3 feet (0.9m) from the heater.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children, pets or invalids and whenever the
heater is left operating unattended.
4. Use your heater only in dry environments. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and
similar indoor locations. Never locate the heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container. Do not
use your heater outdoors. Do not use near sinks, swimming pools or other damp areas such as flooded basements,
garages, etc. or anyplace where the heater could come in contact with water.
5. A heater has hot and arcing parts inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are
used or stored.
6. To disconnect heater, first turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet. Always unplug the heater when
not in use.
7. Always unplug heater by removing the plug end from the outlet when not in use. Never unplug by pulling on
the cord as this can damage the power cord.
8. 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 authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical
adjustment or repair.
9. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable
power strip.
10. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Arrange
cord away from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
11. It is normal for the plug to feel warm to 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. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an
electrical shock or fire, or damage the heater.
13. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a
bed, where openings may become blocked.
14. Do not operate heater with any safeguards removed.
15. 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.
16. This heater draws 12.5 amps during operation. To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug the heater into a
circuit that already has other appliances working.
17. Do not use outdoors.

ZONE HEATING SAVES!
The concept of Zone Heating is simple. Use High Efficiency heaters to heat the rooms you use most, during the
times you use these areas and turn back the thermostat to your central heating system. To achieve the
maximum benefit it is important to understand your heater and where best to locate it.
Please follow these suggestions:
1. Close doors to areas you do not wish to heat.
2. Locate a three prong outlet along an interior wall if possible. Position the heater so that the warm air
can blow unobstructed across the room towards the exterior walls.
3. Check your windows and doors for the infiltration of cold air and insulate as needed to avoid heat
loss. Rapid heat loss will minimize the effectiveness of your Infrared heater as it would any
conventional type heater.
4. Keep the area around the heater free of obstructions to insure maximum airflow. Keep electrical
cords, drapery, furniture, and other combustibles 3 feet (0.9 M) away from the front of the heater
and away from the sides.
5. Avoid locating your heater in high traffic areas or in direct sunlight.
6. Avoid locating your heater near your central heating thermostat.
LOCATING YOUR ELECTRIC FIREPLACE
Your new freestanding electric fireplace may be installed virtually anywhere in your home. However,
when choosing a location for your new electric fireplace, ensure that the general instructions are
followed. For best results, install the electric fireplace out of direct sunlight.
NOTE: This appliance comes equipped with an overheat protection safety device. Should the
appliance begin to overheat for any reason, it will automatically turn all heater functions of
the appliance off. The appliance will have to be reset prior to continuing use. To reset the
over-heatprotection safety device, turn all controls off and unplug the appliance. Wait 15
minutes, plug the appliance back in and turn on. If the appliance continuously overheats,
please call our customer service department.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER
WARNING: Before servicing this heater be sure to unplug heater from wall outlet. Do
not only turn off heater from the main “ON/OFF” switch, be sure to unplug this heater.
Note: The power cord has a polarized plug (with one blade wider than the other) that will only fit in a
polarized outlet one way. If it does not insert easily try reversing the plug. If it still does not fit contact your
electrician to replace your outlet. DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
A 15 AMP, 120 Volt, 60Hz circuit
with a properly grounded outlet is
required. Preferably, the heater
will be on a dedicated circuit.
Other appliances on the same
circuit may cause the circuit
breaker to trip or the fuse to blow
when the heater is in operation.
The unit comes standard with a 6'
(1828mm) long three wire cord
exiting from the rear of the
fireplace.
WARNING: Electrical
outlet wiring must comply with
local building codes and all
other applicable regulations to
reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock and injury.
WARNING: Do not use this
fireplace if any part of it has been
under water. Immediately call a
qualified service technician to
inspect the fireplace and replace
any part of the electrical system if
necessary.
