Read all instructions before using this heater.
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. Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front
of the heater and keep them away
from the sides and rear.
Extreme caution is neces- sary when any heater is used by
or near children or invalids and
whenever the unit is left operating
and unattended.
Always unplug the heater when
not in use.
Do not operate any heater
after it malfunctions. Disconnect power at the service panel and have the heater inspected by a reputable electrician before reus­ing.
Do not operate any unit with
a damaged cord or plug, or if the heater has malfunctioned, or if the electric replace has been
dropped or damaged in any man-
ner, contact Dimplex Technical
Service at 1-888-346-7539.

use in bathrooms, laundry ar­eas and similar indoor locations. Never locate this heater where
it may fall into a bathtub or other
water container. Do not run cord under carpet-
ing. 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.
To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.
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.

This unit may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). The 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.
Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/ power strip).
Do not burn wood or other
materials in the Fireplace.
