SAFETY INFORMATION & WARNINGS
When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions must
be followed in order to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock
and/or injury to persons or property. Be sure to read all
instructions before using this appliance and observe the following
safety tips:
•This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin
touch the hot surface. Always use the 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.
•Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near
children or invalids, and whenever the heater is left operating and
unattended.
•Always unplug the heater when not in use.
•Do not operate the heater with a damaged cord or plug, if the heater
malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner. If
you have any of these issues, immediately contact customer support
at [email protected].
•Do not use the heater outdoors.
•This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas or
similar humid indoor locations. Never use the heater where it may fall
into water (such as near a bathtub) or any other liquid.
•Do not run the power cord under carpeting. Do not cover the cord
with throw rugs, runners or similar items. Arrange the cord away from
high-traffic areas where it can be tripped over.
•CAUTION: This appliance has a polarized plug (with one blade wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit in a polarized outlet only. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, either the plug needs to be reversed, or it is an incorrect
plug. If the plug still does not fit in the receptacle, there may be an
issue with the cord or the outlet. Do not attempt to circumvent this
safety feature—contact customer support immediately at
[e-mail].
•This heater draws 12.5 A during operation. To prevent overloading a
circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that is already powering
other appliances.

•CAUTION: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 damage/distortion to the plug. Contact a
qualified electrician to replace a loose or worn outlet.
•To disconnect the heater, first turn the dial to the OFF position, then
remove the plug from the outlet. Never pull the plug by the cord.
•No object should be inserted into any part of the heater at any time.
•To prevent a possible fire, do not block any air intakes or exhaust in
any manner (if applicable). Do not use this heater on soft surfaces, like
a bed, where openings may become blocked (if applicable).
•A heater has hot and arcing parts inside. Do not use it in the areas
where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
•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.
•CAUTION:Avoid the use of an extension cord because the extension
cord may overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use
an extension cord, the cord must be No. 14 AWG minimum size and
rated not less than 1875 W.
•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 quickly enough to avoid burns.
•Before using the unit, check if the voltage indicated corresponds with
the outlet you intent to use (120V).
