CAUTION
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! - WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED
TO REDUCE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, AND INJURY TO PERSONS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING
1. Read all instructions before using this appliance.
2. When heater is in use, keep away from air output grill
to avoid burns. Keep unit at least 3 feet away from
combustable materials such as furniture, pillows,
bedding, paper, clothing and curtains.
3. Extreme caution should be taken when using any
appliance around children, elderly, or disabled persons;
or whenever the heater is operating unattended.
4. Always unplug the heater when not in use.
5. Do not use outdoors.
6. This heater is not intended for use near water. Never
locate appliance where it may fall into a bathtub or
other water container.
7. To disconnect the appliance, turn controls to off, then
remove the plug from the outlet.
8. Connect to properly grounded outlets only.
9 . Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any
ventilation opening as this may cause an electric shock,
fire, or damage to the appliance.
10. 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.
11. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint,
or flammable liquids are used or stored.
12. Use this appliance only as described in this manual.
Any use not recommended by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
13. To prevent an overload and blown fuses, be sure that
no other appliance is plugged into the same outlet
(receptacle) or into another outlet (receptacle) wired into
the same circuit. (See exception for iHeater Mini point #20)
14. It is normal for the heater’s 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 (receptacle). Worn outlets or receptacles
should be replaced prior to use of the heater. Plugging
this heater into a worn outlet (receptacle) may result in
overheating of the power cord or fire.
15. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into an appropriate
receptacle. Please remember that receptacles also
deteriorate due to aging and continuous use; check
periodically for signs of overheating or deformations
of the plug. If any overheating or deformations are
present, immediately discontinue using the receptacle
and contact a qualified electrician.
16. Caution: to prevent electric shock, match wide blade
of plug to wide slot of receptacle and insert completely.
17. Do not cover the appliance while it is functioning in order
to avoid overheating or risk of fire.
18. Do not place the heater near a bed because objects such
as pillows or blankets can fall off the bed and be ignited
by the heater.
19. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.
Never use with an extension cord or power strip, except
when using the iHeater Mini docking station.
20. The iHeater Mini contains an external outlet with a 500
watt maximum to use for items such as a lamp. Do not
use for items that require more than 500 watts such as
a vacuum cleaner.
21. Do not operate heater with a damaged cord or plug,
after the heater has malfunctioned, or if the heater has
been dropped or damaged in any manner. Discard heater
or return to an authorized service facility for examination
and/or repair.
22. Do not run the cord under carpeting. Do not cover
cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings.
Do not route cord under furniture or appliances.
Arrange cord away from traffic areas and where it
will not be tripped over.
23. Check your heater cord and plug connections.
a) Faulty wall outlet connections or loose plugs can cause
the outlet or plug to overheat. Be sure the plug fits
tight into the outlet.
b) Heaters draw more current than small appliances.
Overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has
not occurred with the use of other appliances.
c) During use, check frequently to determine if your plug,
outlet, or faceplate is hot. If it is, discontinue use of the
heater and have a qualified electrician check and/or re-
place faulty outlets.
24. Do not block air intake or place unit behind drapes
or behind furniture.

QUICK-START GUIDE
iHeater Mini IH-101-B
MAIN FEATURES AND CONTROL PANEL
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR IHEATER
iHeater is NOT intended to replace your furnace,
nor is it intended to be a sole source of heat. Your
iHeater is intended to be a supplemental source of
heat. The goal of the iHeater is to cause your furnace
to cycle less often.
i.e. If your furnace is cycling (turning on) every 10 minutes (6 times per
hour), the goal of the iHeater is to cause your furnace to cycle less.
If your furnace cycles only 3 times per hour, then your home heating
bill will be reduced. Note: every home is different, results will vary.
iHeater is not an instant heat source. iHeater will warm
up the elements in your room, wall to wall, ceiling to
floor. This will take some time, based on the size of the
room and ceiling height. Once the elements are heated,
a steady heat will remain.
QUICK-START GUIDE
1. When using the iHeater Mini without the docking station adapter, press the unit firmly into the wall
outlet until it is mounted flush against the wall.
2. Press the ON/OFF switch at the top of the heater to the ON ( I ) position.
3. Press the fan SPEED button to high (HH) or low (LL) depending on room size.
4. Press the temperature UP/DOWN buttons to set the target room temperature.

Thank you for purchasing your iHeater Mini. We hope that you are satisfied
with this energy efficient heating system. To get the best use out of your
iHeater, please take the time to read this guide BEFORE you start to use it.
If iHeater is on, it is saving you money! For best results,
iHeater should remain on at all times. With the built-in
thermostat, iHeater will cycle only when necessary.
It is most effective when left on at all times.
iHeater Mini uses approximately 6-7 amps while it is in
the warming process. Once the heating element has
reached its peak, the unit will use 5-6 amps based on
the setting. iHeater works best when mounted directly
into a power outlet on the wall, or the docking station
adapter is plugged directly into a power outlet. It is
not intended to be run through an extension cord.
ON/OFF POWER SWITCH – Turns the power to
on ( I ) or off (O). Switch located on the top of the unit.
FAN SPEED BUTTON – Use to select low (LL) or
high (HH) speed. (Use low for small rooms and high
for larger rooms.)
TIMER BUTTON – Use to set timer to automatically
turn off Mini within the timer range of 1-9 hours.
TEMPERATURE ADJUST UP & DOWN – Use the
Temperature Adjust buttons to raise and lower
the temperature and to set the target temperature
for the room.
CONTROL PANEL AND TEMPERATURE DISPLAY –
To display temperature, timer and speed settings.
HOT AIR OUTLET – This is the only part of the unit
that will be warm to the touch while the unit is running.
DO NOT TOUCH the hot air outlet while the heater is on.
AIR INTAKE LOCATIONS – Make sure this is never blocked.
ADDITIONAL OUTLETS – The additional outlets
provided on both sides of the heater are to use
with items that require 500 watts or less, such as
lamps and laptop computers. Do not use for items
that require more than 500 watts to operate.
DOCKING STATION ADAPTER – Use when you do
not want to mount the unit directly into a wall socket.
Stands on flat surfaces.
