IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

① Read all instructions before using this heater.

② This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. The trim around the heater outlet becomes hot during heater operation.

WARNING: High tempera-

tures may be generated under

certain abnormal conditions. Do not partially or fully cover or obstruct the front of this heater.

③ Extreme caution is necessary

when any heater is used by or

near children or invalids and

whenever the unit is left operating

and unattended.

④ Always unplug the heater when

not in use.

⑤ Do not operate any heater with

a damaged cord or plug, or if the heater has malfunctioned, or if it

has been dropped or damaged

in any manner. Return heater to authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

⑥ Do not use outdoors. ⑦ Never locate this heater where

it may fall into a bathtub or other

water container. ⑧ Do not run cord under

carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange cord away from trafc

area and where it will not be

tripped over. ⑨ To disconnect heater, turn

controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.

⑩ Do not insert or allow foreign

objects to enter any ventilation

or exhaust opening as this may

cause an electric shock or re, or damage the heater.

⑪ To prevent a possible re, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner.

⑫ All electrical heaters have hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use in areas where

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

⑭ To reduce the risk of electric shock, this heater has a polarized

plug (one blade is wider than

the other). This plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/ receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).

⑮ Do not burn wood or other

materials in the replace.

⑯ Do not strike the front glass. ⑰ Always use a certied

electrician should new circuits or outlets be required.

⑱ Always use properly grounded,

fused and polarized outlets.

⑲ Disconnect all power supply

before performing any cleaning, maintenance or relocation of the heater.

⑳ When transporting or storing

the heater and cord, keep in a dry place, free from excessive

vibration and store so as to avoid

damage.

WARNING: Remote control contains a small battery. Keep away from children. If

swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.

WARNING: Do not install

battery backwards, charge, put in re or mix with used or other

battery types - may explode or

leak causing injury.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of

re, do not store or use gasoline or other ammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of the heater.

WARNING: Ensure the power cord is not installed so that it is pinched or against a sharp edge and ensure that the power cord is stored or secured to avoid tripping or snagging to reduce the risk of re, electric shock or injury to persons.

WARNING: Construction and electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of re, electric shock and injury to persons.
