When using electrical appliances,
basic precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of re,
electric shock, and injury to persons,
including the following:
①Read all instructions before using
the Compact Stove.
②The heater is hot when in use.
To avoid burns, do not let bare skin
touch hot surfaces. The trim around
the heater outlet becomes hot during
heater operation. Keep combustible
materials, such as furniture, pillows,
bedding, papers, clothes, and
curtains at least 3 feet (0.9m) from
the front of the unit.
CAUTION: High Temperature.
Keep electrical cords, drapery, and
other furnishings at least 3 feet
(0.9m) from the front of the heater
and away from the side and rear.
③Extreme caution is necessary
when any heater is used by or
near children or invalids and
whenever the unit is left operating
and unattended.
④Always unplug the Compact
Stove when not in use.
⑤Do not operate any unit with a
damaged cord or plug, or if the heater
has malfunctioned, or if the Compact
Stove has been dropped or damaged
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
in any manner. Return heater
to authorized service facility for
examination, electrical or mechanical
adjustment, or repair.
⑥Do not use outdoors.
⑦The Compact Stove is not
intended for use in bathrooms,
laundry areas and similar indoor
locations. Never locate heater where
it may fall into a bathtub or other
water container.
⑧Do not run the cord under
carpeting. Do not cover cord with
throw rugs, runners, or the like.
Arrange cord away from trafc area
and where it will not be tripped over.
⑨To disconnect the unit, turn the
controls off, then remove the plug
from the outlet.
⑩Do not insert or allow foreign
objects to enter any ventilation or
exhaust opening as this may cause
an electric shock or re, or damage to
the heater.
⑪ To prevent a possible re, do
not block air intake or exhaust in any
manner. Do not use on soft surfaces,
like a bed, where openings may
become blocked.
⑫All electrical heaters have hot
and arcing or sparking parts inside.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use in areas where gasoline,
paint, or ammable liquids are used
or stored or where the unit will be
exposed to ammable vapors.
⑬Do not modify the Compact
Stove. Use it only as described in
this manual. Any other use not
recommended by the manufacturer
may cause re, electric shock or
injury to persons.
⑭To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this appliance has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will t in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does
not t fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not t, contact
a qualied electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way. Avoid the use of an
extension cord. Plug the cord directly
into an appropriate wall receptacle.
⑮Do not burn wood or other
materials in the Compact Stove.
⑯Do not strike the clear door
panel.
⑰ Always use a certied electrician
should new circuits or outlets be
required.
⑱Always use properly grounded,
fused and polarized outlets.
⑲Disconnect all power supply
before performing any cleaning,
maintenance or relocation of the unit.
⑳When transporting or storing the
unit and cord, keep in a dry place,
free from excessive vibration and
store so as to avoid damage.

Quick Reference Guide
① Prior to the rst use of
the Compact Stove verify the
following:
• Are the circuit breakers for
the unit on?
• Are the light bulbs in your
Compact Stove loose? (To
check, follow the instructions
for replacing the light bulbs
under the Maintenance
section of this manual)
②The heater on your Compact
Stove may emit a slight, harmless
odor when rst used. This odor is
a normal condition caused by the
initial heating of internal heater
parts and will not occur again.
Compact Stove Installation
!NOTE: 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
fuses blow 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: Ensure the
power cord is not installed so
that it is pinched or against a
sharp edge and ensure that
the power cord is stored or
secured to avoid tripping or
snagging to reduce the risk of
re, electric shock or injury to
persons.
Construction and electrical
wiring must comply with local
building codes and other
applicable regulations to
reduce the risk of re, electric
shock and injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your
own new outlets or circuits. To
reduce the risk of re, electric
shock or injury to persons,
always use a licensed
electrician.
① Make sure the unit’s 3-Position
switch is switched OFF (refer to
operating instruction section).
② Plug the unit directly into a 15
