to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using this heater.
2. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not
continually let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided,
use handle when moving this heater. Keep combustible
materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers,
clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the
front of the heater and keep them away from the sides
and rear.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used
by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater
is left operating and unattended.
4. Always unplug heater when not in use.
5. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug
or after the heater malfunctions, 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. This heater is rated at 1500W, 120 VAC. It is not to be
used in wet or moist locations, such as bathrooms and
laundry areas. Never locate heater where it may fall into
a bathtub or other water container. Avoid the use of
extension cord because the extension cord may
overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, If an
extension cord must be used, it must be 14 gauge or
larger and rated no less than 1875 watts.
8. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with
throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange cord away from
traffic area where it will not be tripped over.
9. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of shock, this plug is
intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the
plug does not fit securely in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.
10. This heater draws 12.5 amps during operation when in
the high setting. To prevent overloading a circuit, do not
plug the heater into a circuit that already has other
appliances working.
11. It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch;
however, a loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle)
and plug may cause overheating and distortion of the
plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or
worn outlet.
12. To disconnect the heater, first turn controls to the OFF
position, then grip the plug and pull it from the wall
outlet. Never pull by the cord.
13. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any
ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an
electric shock or fire, or damage the heater.
14. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or
exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like
a bed, where openings may become blocked.
15. A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do
not use it in the areas where gasoline, paint, or
flammable liquids are used or stored.
16. Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any
other use not recommended by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
17. The output of this heater may vary and its temperature
may become intense enough to burn exposed skin. Use
of this heater is not recommended for persons with
reduced sensitivity to heat or an inability to react to
avoid burns.
