Grounding Instructions
This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as shown at (A) in gure 1.
An adaptor as shown at (C) is available for connecting three-blade grounding-type
plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding lug extending from the adaptor
must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
The adaptor should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.
NOTE: Adaptors are NOT
for use in Canada.
DANGER
A 15 Amp, 120 Volt, 60 Hz circuit with a properly grounded outlet is required.
Preferably, the replace will be on a dedicated circuit as 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 ft. (1.8 m) long, three-wire cord,
exiting the right side of the replace. Always plug the unit into a wall outlet/receptacle.
An extension cord or re-locatable power tap, (outlet/power strip), should never be
used.
Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other
applicable regulations to reduce the risk of re, electrical shock and injury
to persons.
Do not use this replace if any part of it has been under water. Immediately
call a qualied service technician to inspect the replace and replace any part
of the electrical system which has been under water.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Always turn the heater OFF and unplug the power cord from the outlet before cleaning. Use a vacuum
or duster to remove dust and dirt from the heater and vent areas. To maintain the nish, clean with a
soft, slightly damp cloth and buff with a dry cloth. Never use abrasive cleansers, liquid sprays, or any
cleaner that could scratch the surface.
Never drag the unit across a oor. The added stress from dragging the unit may cause the legs to
break.
Glass Information (some models)
1. Under no circumstances should this product be operated with broken glass.
2. Do not strike or slam the glass.
3. Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the glass.
4. This product uses tempered glass. Replacement of the glass supplied by the manufacturer
should be done by a qualied service person.
Light Bulb Inspection and Replacement
The ame effect is created by two 40-Watt light bulbs with an E-12 (small) socket base. Use only this
type of light bulb. If the ame effect does not work, the bulbs may have come loose or been damaged
during shipping.
Light bulbs become very hot during use. Allow at least 10 minutes for the bulbs to cool
before touching.
WARNING: Do not exceed 40 watts per bulb. Use of higher rated
bulbs may result in a re, causing property damage or personal injury.
Maintenance of Motors
Always disconnect the appliance from the main power supply and allow it to cool before any
servicing operation.
The motors used on the fan heater and ame effect are pre-lubricated for extended bearing life and
require no further lubrication. However, periodic cleaning/vacuuming of the appliance around the air
intake and exhaust, as well as the fan heater is recommended. For heavy or continuous use, periodic
cleaning must be done more frequently. If the heater blows alternating cold and warm air, check the
fan for free movement and for debris restricting air ow. If the fan does not move freely, the unit must
be turned off and the fan replaced immediately in order to prevent further damage to the unit.

10
Disconnect power before servicing.
Any electrical re-wiring of this appliance must be done by a qualied electrician.
This wiring must be done in accordance with local codes and/or in Canada with
the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code, and for US installations, the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70.
If repairing or replacing any electrical component or wiring, the original
wire routing, color coding and securing locations must be followed.
DANGER
Any electrical repairs or rewiring of this unit should be carried out by a licensed electrician in
accordance with national and local codes.
