Please read all instructions before using
this heater.
This heater is designed to provide supplemental heat in
small areas such as offices and may be used as an under
desk heater. However, care must be taken to avoid blocking heater or covering it with anything that could allow it to
build up heat – See warnings.
NOTE: Traces of smoke or odor when unit is initiated indicates that small amounts of oil leaked on heating coil during manufacturing. It will evaporate quickly and should not
re-occur. Make sure the appliance location is well ventilated during operation.
When using electrical appliances, please follow these
basic precautions to reduce risk of fire, electrical shock,
and injury or property damage:
1. Read all instructions prior to using heater.
2. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let
bare skin touch hot surfaces.
3. Keep combustible materials such as furniture, pillows,
bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet
away from front of heater and keep them away from the
sides and rear.
4. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by
or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left
operating and unattended.
5. Always turn heater off at switch and unplug heater from
outlet when not in use.
6. 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
authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.
7. Do not use this heater outdoors.
8. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry
areas and similar indoor locations. Never locate heater
where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
9. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with
throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route
cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away
from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
10. Some models are provided with a three blade grounded
plug(see Figure 3). If provided with a grounded plug,
always connect to a properly grounded outlet only.
11. 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.
12. Check heater cord and plug connections. Faulty wall outlet
connections or loose plugs can cause the outlet or plug to
overheat. Be sure the plug fits tight in the outlet. Heaters
draw more current than small appliances, therefore
overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not
occurred with the use of other appliances. If plug outlet or
faceplate is HOT, discontinue use and have qualified
electrician check/replace the faulty outlet.
13. Always plug heater directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.
Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap
(outlet/power strip).
14. If this heater is to be used in damp areas such as
basements or garages, a ground fault circuit must be
provided.
15. Do not make holes in the heater. Damage to internal
electrical components or electric shock hazards may occur
and this will void your warranty.
16. 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.
17. This heater is provided with a safety thermal limit control
which will automatically shut off the heater in the event of
overheating. Should the thermal limit activate a red alarm
light located on the front panel near the ON-OFF switch will
illuminate to indicate that the heater has overheated and
cycled off on this safety device. To reset, switch the heater
off and unplug for approximately 15 minutes. Plug in and
turn on switch to resume normal operation. Should the unit
overheat and activate the limit, the cause of the overheating
should be determined before further operation. The heater
can only be used in the vertical position or tilted back
slightly when used with built in stand.
18. To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug
from outlet.

OPERATING & GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Heaters are provided with flexible cord with a
grounded 2 blade plug (as shown at A in
Figure 3) and built-in ON/OFF switch. This
heater is for use at 120 V AC only.
2. An adapter as shown at C in Figure 3 is
available for connecting three-blade
grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles.
The green grounding plug 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.
3. Occasionally a new heater will emit a slight
“new smell” odor during initial use. This smell
should dissipate within the first hour of use.

heaters are not to be used for an extended
period of time, cord should be coiled and tied
to prevent damage and heater should be
stored in a safe location.
