GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• This product is equipped with a cord that has an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a
plug as shown.
• A 15 Amp, 120 Volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred,
but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if,
after installation, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows on a
regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances
on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.
WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other
applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
