IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety 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 the appliance.

2. To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance
directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

3. The heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, DO NOT let
bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use handles
when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials,
such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and
curtains at least 3 ft (0.9 m) from the front of the heater
and keep them away from the sides and rear.

4. DO NOT run cord under carpeting. DO NOT cover
cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange
cord away from traffic area and where it will not be
tripped over.

5. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms,
laundry areas and similar indoor location. NEVER
locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or
other water container.

6. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is
used by, or near children or invalids, and whenever
the heater is left operating and unattended.

7. Always unplug the heater when not in use.

8. When unplugging, be sure to pull by the plug and
not the cord.

9. 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.

10. DO NOT operate heater with a damaged cord or
plug, or after the heater malfunctions, has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to manufacturer for examination, electrical
or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

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. Use appliance only for intended household use as
described in this manual. Any other use not
recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons. The use of
attachments not recommended or sold by the
manufacturer may cause hazards.

13. DO NOT use outdoors.

14. 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.

15. To disconnect heater, turn controls to OFF, then
remove plug from outlet.

16. Avoid the use of an extension cord because the
extension cord may overheat and cause a risk of
fire. However, if you have to use an extension cord,
the cord shall be No. 14 AWG minimum size and
rated not less than 1875 watts.

17. If the heater will not operate, see specific instructions
on Auto Safety Shut-off.

serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed
by qualified personnel only.

19. Discontinue use if plug or outlet is hot. It is
recommended that the outlet be replaced if plug or
outlet is hot to touch.

20. CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to
inadvertent resetting of the thermal cutout, this appliance
must not be supplied through an external switching
device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is
regularly switched on and off by the utility.

21. WARNING: In order to avoid overheating, do not
cover the heater.

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 in 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 to
install the proper outlet.

SAFETY FEATURE IN ANY WAY.
