12. 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.
13. The heater has hot parts and sparking parts inside. Do not use in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable
liquids are used or stored.
14. 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.
15. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet receptacle. Do not use an extension cord.
16. To prevent overload and blown fuses, do not plug another appliance into the same outlet on the same circuit.
17. 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 further use of the heater. Plugging this heater into a worn outlet (receptacle)
may result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
18. 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 outlet and cord periodically for signs of overheating or
deformations of the plug. If any overheating or deformation is present, immediately discontinue using the receptacle
and contact a qualified electrician.
19. CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot of receptacle and insert completely.
20. Do not cover the appliance while it is functioning in order to avoid overheating and/or risk of fire.
21. 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.
22. 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 in
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!
d) If so, discontinue use of the heater and have a qualified electrician check and/or replace faulty outlet(s).
23. Do not locate against walls or behind drapes or furniture.
24. Be certain to clean the outer air filter in the rear of the heater periodically by vacuuming it and/or washing it to
remove dust particles. Be certain to dry the filter completely prior to reinserting it into its position on the heater and
prior to re-starting the heater.
