SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners or the like. Arrange the cord away from heavily trafficked areas, where it will not be tripped over.

• Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or a relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).

• To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like bed, where opening may become blocked.

• There is a resettable cutout switch inside the heater. Should the heater overheat, the cutout will turn the fireplace heater off. To reset the cutout switch unplug the unit and wait 5 minutes before plugging it back in. Caution: If you need to continuously reset the cutout, unplug the unit and call Technical Support.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• This product is equipped with a cord that has an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

• This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as shown.

• A 15 Amp, 120 Volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred,

but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows on a regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.

WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other

applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
