INTRODUCTION
Your TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor is a robust and weatherproof heater, ideal for
both indoor and outdoor use. Requiring no time to heat up, it provides comfortable
heat instantly.
That’s because the TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor’s carbon infrared lamp
produces instant radiant heat. Unlike conventional convection heating, the
TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor doesn’t heat the air. Rather, it transfers radiant
heat from the TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor lamp to an object, just like the
warmth of the sun heating a rock, or the feeling of sunshine on your face.
INDOORS
Used indoors, your TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor will only warm you and objects
in the room, such as carpets or furniture. It won’t heat and dry out the air.
OUTDOORS
In an outdoor environment, the surrounding air is constantly moving. This makes
convection heating impractical because once the air is heated, it just blows away
– leaving you without the warmth you desire. But the TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor
enables you to target outdoor areas, warming only the people and objects in the
heater’s path, for maximum warmth and maximum efficiency.
WARNING
This heater is for use on 120 volts.
The cord has a plug as shown at A
in Figure 61 .1. An adapter as shown
at C is available for connecting three-
blade grounding-type plugs to two-
slot receptacles.The green grounding
lug extending from the adapter
must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box. The adapter should not
be used if a three-slot grounded
receptacle is available.

• The TIVA™Heater Indoor/Outdoor is protected from rain sprays. Do not direct
water at the heater, e.g. splashing or from a garden hose.
• Do not operate any heater after it malfunctions. Disconnect power at service
panel and have heater inspected by a reputable electrician before reusing.
• 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 the heater.
• To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner.
