Important Safety Instructions (Cont.)
• Plug: It is normal for the plug to feel warm; however, a loose fit between the AC
outlet and plug may cause overheating and distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified
electrician to replace a loose outlet.
• After use: Switch off and unplug the heater from the power outlet when it is not in
use and before cleaning, servicing, moving or storing it. To disconnect, switch off the
heater, then remove the plug from the outlet. Grip the plug, do not pull the cord.
• Safety switch: Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device
(safety switch), we recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating
current not exceeding 30mA, to provide additional safety protection when using
electrical appliances. See your electrician for professional advice.
