use handles when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows,
bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet(0.9m) from the front of the heater and
keep them away from the sides and rear. In order to avoid overheating, DO NOT partially or fully

NEVER locate the heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other watercontainer.
➢DO NOT run cord under carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar
coverings. Arrange the cord away from the traffic area so that it will not be tippedover.
➢To disconnect the heater, turn the controls off, then remove the plug from the outlet.
➢ALWAYS plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. NEVER use an extension cord or
relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip). Connect to properly grounded outlets ONLY.
➢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 theheater.
➢To prevent a possible fire, DO NOT block air intakes or exhaust. DO NOT use soft surfaces,
like a bed, where openings may become blocked. DO NOT rinse or get wet
➢A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. DO NOT use it in areas where
gasoline 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.
➢Replacement of the lamps should be done only while the heater is disconnected from the
supply circuit.
➢This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,

2
sensory or capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
➢Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with theappliance.
➢CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this
appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or
connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by theutility.
➢NEVER permanently install in a recessed area of the wall. This may result in blocked air
flow, overheating, or fire.

➢Avoid plugging other appliances into the same circuit as this heater.
ALWAYS check your heater cord and plug connections with each use!
➢MAKE SURE the plug fits tightly in the outlet! Faulty wall outlet connections or loose plugs can
cause the outlet to overheat.
➢Heaters draw more current than small appliances. Overheating may occur even if it has not
occurred with the use of other appliances.
➢During use check frequently to see if the plug outlet or faceplate is HOT!
➢If the outlet or faceplate is HOT, discontinue use immediately and have a qualified electrician
inspect and/or replace the faulty outlets.
