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. If provided, always use handles 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. Ensure a minimum clearance of 5.5
inches (14 cm) from both sides and rear of heater to adjacent walls. Keep the
rear grille away from walls or drapes so as not to block the air intake.
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. To disconnect, grip plug and pull
from wall outlet. Never yank on cord.
To disconnect the heater, turn controls to LOW, then remove the plug from
outlet.
Do not operate the heater with a damaged cord or plug, if the heater
malfunctions, or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return
heater to an authorized service facility for examination, electrical or
mechanical adjustment, or repair.
Do not use the heater outdoors.
This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar
humid indoor locations. Never put a heater where it may fall into a bathtub
or other water container.
Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners
or similar items. Do not route cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange
cord away from high-traffic areas where it can be tripped over. Route the
cord so that it will not be walked on or pinched by furniture.
Connect to properly grounded outlets only. Check heater voltage and
amperage on the back of the heater to make sure it agrees with the electric
service supplied.
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust
opening as this may case an electric shock, fire, or damage to the heater.

A Name You Can Trust
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.
Use this heater only as describe in this manual. Any other use not
recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury
to persons.
This heater draws 20 Amps during operation. Be sure to use a dedicated
250VAC, 30A circuit for the heater.
Caution: it is normal for the plug and cord to feel warm to the touch. A plug
or cord which becomes hot to the touch or becomes distorted in shape may
be a result of a worn electrical outlet. Worn outlets or receptacles should be
replaced prior to further use of the heater. Plugging the heater into a warm
outlet/receptacle may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
Ensure the heater is on a stable, secure floor surface to eliminate the
potential of tipping it over.
Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into the appropriate receptacle. Please
remember that receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and continuous
use: check periodically for signs of overheating or deformations evidenced
by the plug. Should this occur, do not use the receptacle. Call your
electrician.
Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable has been damaged in
any way during transportation.
Make sure that no pieces of polystyrene or other packaging material have
been left between one element of the appliance and another. It may be
necessary to clean the appliance with a vacuum cleaner.
When switching on the appliance for the first time, you may notice a slight
odor which is normal with new electrical appliances. Allow odor to dissipate
by running appliance at full power for about ten minutes. Make sure that the
room in which the appliance is located is well ventilated during this
operation.
This heater draws 20 Amps during operation. To prevent overloading a
circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that already has other appliances
working.
Do not run in locations when the heater will be left unattended for long
periods of time.
Do not use attachments or filters. They are not recommended.
Always plug the heater directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with
an extension cord or portable power tap (outlet/power strip).
A heater has hot, arcing and sparking parts inside. Do not use it in areas
where gasoline, paint or flammable liquids are used or stored.

IMPORTANT!
This heater must be installed on the floor only.
Prior to operating the heater, ensure the electrical receptacle is of the
configuration and capacity appropriate for the heater. This heater uses 250
volts. The cord has a plug as shown below. No adapter is available for this blade
configuration, and none should be used. The type of receptacle is a 250 volt
rounding receptacle (NEMA 6-30R). When properly installed, it provides a
ground connection through the cord to the heater to protect the operator from
electric shock.

control knob clockwise all the way to HIGH.
To decrease the heat output, turn the knob counterclockwise.
Once the room reaches the desired temperature, slowly turn the thermostat
control knob counterclockwise until you hear a “click.” This sets the heater
to cycle ON/OFF to maintain the desired heating temperature for energy
efficiency.
