- A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not
use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are
used or stored.
- Do not use this heater in an RV, boat or during any application
where battery power is converted to AC power.
- Place this product at least 3 feet away on all sides from,
electrical outlets, furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes,
curtains and other objects that may cause or catch on fire.
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.
- To prevent a possible fire, do not place the heater on soft
surfaces, like a bed, where air intakes or exhaust can be
blocked in anymanner.
- No part of this product (the appliance, power cord, plug,
packaging, etc.) should be placed near furnaces, fireplaces,
stoves or other high temperature heat sources. Do not use in a
window, on an uneven or unstable surface, or nearwater.
- Do not use this product on an elevated surface such as shelf
or desktop. Use only while placed on the floor. Operate only in
the upright position.

English
come into contact with water. Do not use this product on wet
surfaces. Do not use this product in a bathtub or shower or
position product where it may fall into a bathtub, laundry,
swimming pool or other water container. Do not use this
product outdoors or expose it to weather orelements.
- Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw
rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route under furniture
or appliances. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it

doors. Place appliance near an easily accessible outlet so the
product can be unplugged quickly during an emergency.
- Do not modify the product with any aftermarket accessory.
SAFE USE WARNING — To reduce risk of fire, electrical shock
and injury to persons, observe the following:
- 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.
- Extreme caution is required at all times a heater is in operation.
Always unplug heater when not in use. Vornado does not
recommend unattended and unsupervised use of this heater.
- This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare
skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use handles when moving
thisheater.
- Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.
Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power
tap (outlet/power strip). Do not use this heater on a surge-
protected unit or Ground Fault Circuit Interrupted (GFCI)
outlet.
- Before plugging power cord into electrical outlet, be sure that
all electrical information on the rating label, including voltage,
is compatible with your outlet’s power supply.
- WARNING: To reduce likelihood of circuit overload, fire and
electric shock, do not operate with a solid state speed device,
such as a dimmer control switch. Use of this appliance on the
same electrical circuit as another high energy use product,
such as a vacuum cleaner, blender, variable speed fan or
circular saw is not advised. Do not use this heater with a timer
designed to automatically turn the unit on or off, as this may
accidentally disable the heater’s thermal cutout safety feature.
- Risk of fire. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord
or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been dropped or
damaged in any manner. Discard heater, or return to a Vornado
authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.
- Never use the cord as a handle or otherwise yank, strain or
stretch the power cord.
- While the product is plugged in, 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.
- 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.
- Never ignore the signs of an electrical problem, such as: warm
outlet coverplates, sparks when plugging in or operating, lights
flickering/dimming during operation. Immediately turn off
and unplug the appliance if any such problems are noticed.
Contact a qualified electrician to investigate possible causes

6English
before operating the applianceagain.
- Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances,
overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not occurred
with the other appliances.
- This product’s power cord is equipped with a three-prong,
grounded plug that must be inserted into a grounded
receptacle. Connect to properly grounded outlets only.
- This heater is for use with 120 volt electrical outlets. Connect
to properly grounded outlets only. The cord has a plug as
shown at A in Figure 68.1, below. 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.
- Before moving, repositioning, servicing, cleaning and when
not in use, use the product controls to turn off the power
and then unplug. To disconnect from outlet, grasp and pull
only the plug. Also, power off and unplug if the product will
be left unattended for an extended period of time or during
electricalstorms.
- If your heater suddenly stops working:
• This heater is equipped with a thermal cutout safety feature
designed to automatically shut off when overheating is
detected. See the “RESET HEATER” instructions in this guide
to determine how to check and reset the heater.
• If the heater and other electrical products suddenly stop
working at the same time, your home circuit breaker
or fuse may have tripped due to an overload of power.
Consider only running your heater on the “low” setting,
only running one heater at once and unplugging all
other electrical products while running the heater, and/or
hiring an electrician to install an additional circuit to your
home’selectrical system.
SERVICING WARNING — To reduce risk of fire, electrical shock
and injury to persons, observe the following:
- Clean your product regularly, only as is instructed in this
manual. Prior to cleaning, turn off the power on your product
and unplug. Do not use gasoline, thinners, solvents, ammonias
or other chemicals for cleaning. Refer to the CLEANING
instructions provided.

Keeping Tempa Clean
Cleaning the Grille
1. Power Tempa Off and unplug.
2. Use the brush attachment on your household
vacuum cleaner to vacuum any accumulated
dust on the unit or wipe down the entire
surface with a soft, dry cloth.
Note: Do not use gasoline, thinners, solvents or
other chemicals for cleaning.
Note: Do not modify Tempa with any aftermarket
accessory.
You should periodically blow out Tempa
with pressurized air to keep heat element
and motor clear of dust, hair and debris that
can build up inside the heater as it moves air
during use. This also eliminates unwanted
odors caused by accumulation of these
particles inside the unit.
Always unplug Tempa before starting any part of the cleaning process.
Because Tempa moves a substantial amount of air, it will need regular cleaning. Cleaning the outside
of the heater is recommended on a weekly basis.

Tips
• During the off-season or after extended
periods of non-use, you may choose to store
Tempa. To ensure long life of the product, it
is recommended to store Tempa by following
these instructions:
• Always set Power switch to Off and unplug
Tempa before cleaning.
• After unplugging unit, wrap cord neatly inside
the Power Cord Storage.
• Thoroughly clean Tempa. Use the brush
attachment on your household vacuum
cleaner to vacuum any accumulated dust on
Tempa or wipe down the entire surface with a
soft, dry cloth.
• Cover, or place Tempa back into retail carton
if available. This will prevent Tempa from
accumulating dust over time.
• Store Tempa in a cool and dry location.
• The motor is permanently lubricated and
requires no oiling. Do not use gasoline, thinners,
solvents or other chemicals for cleaning.
Resetting Your Vornado Heater

2. Remove any obstructions and wait 5 –10
minutes, allowing Tempa to cool down.

shuts off Tempa or if it will not reset, DO
NOT ATTEMPT TO DISASSEMBLE Tempa.
