WARNING – TO REDUCE THE
RISK OF FIRE:
1) Do not place any objects such as furniture, papers, clothes,
and curtains closer than 3 feet(0.9 m) to the front of the
heater and keep them away from the sides and rear when
the heater is plugged in.
2) 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.
3) Always unplug heater when not in use.
4) Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.
Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap
(outlet/power strip).
5) Check your heater cord and plug connections. A loose
fitting outlet can cause the plug to overheat or cause a fire.
Be sure plug fits tight in the outlet. Check frequently during
use to make sure plug and outlet are not hot. If so,
discontinue using heater and have outlet replaced by a
qualified electrician.
Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances,
overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not occurred
with the other appliances.
DO NOT REMOVE THIS TAG!
AVERTISSEMENT – POUR
DIMINUER LE DANGER
D'INCENDIE :
1) Quand le chauffage est en marche, ne placer aucun objet,
tels que des meubles, du papier, des vêtements et des rideaux
à une distance inférieure à 90 cm de la face avant du chauffage
et les éloigner des faces latérales et arrière.
2) Ne pas placer le chauffage près de la literie, car les objets tels
que les coussins ou draps peuvent tomber du lit et être
enflammés par le chauffage.
3) Toujours débrancher le chauffage quand il n’est pas utilisé.
4) Toujours brancher le chauffage directement à une prise
murale. Ne jamais utiliser une rallonge, prise ou multiprise
électrique non fixe.
5) Vérifier votre cordon du chauffage et les prises enfichables. Un
branchement lâche de la prise de courant murale peut provoquer
une surchauffe ou un risque d’incendie. Assurez-vous que le
connecteur tient bien fermement dans la prise de courant murale.
Vérifier fréquemment pendant le fonctionnement que la fiche du
cordon et que la prise de courant ne soient pas chaud. Si c’est
le cas, cesser d’utiliser le chauffage et faites remplacer la prise
de courant par un électricien qualifié.
Note: Les chauffages consomment plus de courant que les petits
appareils électriques, la surchauffe de la prise de courant murale
peut survenir même si elle ne s’est pas produite avec l’utilisation
d’autres appareils.
