least 3 feet (0.9m) from the front
of the heater and keep them

any heater is used by or near children
or invalids and whenever the heater
is left operating and unattended.

4. Always unplug heater when not in use.

use in bathrooms, laundry areas
and similar indoor locations.
Never locate 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 similar coverings. Do not
route cord under furniture or appliances.
Arrange cord away from traffic 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 fire, or damage the heater.

11. To prevent a possible fire, do not block

air intakes or exhaust in any manner.
Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed,
where openings may become blocked.

12. 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.

13. Use this heater only as described

in this manual. Any other use not

14. Always plug heaters directly

into a wall outlet/receptacle.
Never use with an extension cord
or relocatable power strip.

15. Place heater on a hard, stable, level surface

before operating to avoid tipping.
The Tip Over Shutoff Switch may
prevent operation if the heater
is placed on a soft surface.

16. This appliance has a polarized plug

(one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not change the plug in any way.
Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
