!NOTE: A 15amp, 120 volt
alternating current (VAC) 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 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: 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
outlet 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.
