When using electrical appliances,
basic precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock, and injury to
persons, including the following:
①Read all instructions before
using the 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 3FT
(.9m) from the front of the heater
and away from the side and rear.
③ Extreme caution is necessary
when any heater is used by or
near children or invalids and
whenever the unit is left operating
and unattended.
④ Always unplug the Stove when
not in use.
⑤ Do not operate any unit with
a damaged cord or plug, or if the
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
heater has malfunctioned, or if
the Stove has been dropped or
damaged in any manner. Return
heater to authorized service
facility for examination, electrical
or mechanical adjustment, or
repair.
⑥ Do not use outdoors.
⑦ The 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

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
soft surfaces, like a bed, where
openings may become blocked.
⑫All electrical heaters have hot
and arching or sparking parts
inside. 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 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.
⑭ To 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.
⑮ Do not burn wood or other
materials in the Stove.
⑯Do not strike the clear door
panel.
⑰ Always use a certied
electrician should new circuits or
outlets be required.
⑱ Always use properly
grounded, fused and polarized
outlets.
⑲ Disconnect all power supply
before performing any cleaning,
maintenance or relocation of the
unit.
⑳ When transporting or storing
the unit and cord, keep in a
dry place, free from excessive
vibration and store so as to avoid
damage.
