Heater Operation Safety

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be

followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using this heater. 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.

• This machine shall be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The machine is

provided with two three-conductor cords with three-contact grounding type attachment plugs to fit the proper grounding type receptacles. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect this wire to other than the grounding pin of the attachment plug.

• Connect to properly grounded outlets only. The 120volt power source must be wired and have 15 or 20

amp circuit breaker to safely handle the rated amperage of the unit. Examine the electric outlet before connecting your E-TES SD. A Loose fitting or damaged outlet can cause the power cord to overheat. Do not use a loose fitting or damaged outlet. If necessary, have an electrician repair the outlet before connecting your E-TES SD to prevent cord or outlet damage.

• This machine is for use on two separate nominal 120-volt

15 amp circuits and the power cords have grounding plugs that resembles the plug illustrated in the sketch shown to the right. Make sure that the machine is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this machine.

• Use no more than one 50 ft. 12 gauge extension cord

(100’ total cord length) per circuit when operating this heater. Any extension cord used with this heater must be 12 gauge or 10 gauge three-conductor cords with three-contact grounding type attachment plugs to fit the proper grounding type receptacles.

• The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupting (GFCI) protected cords supplied with the E-TES SD provide additional

safety when operating the E-TES SD on wet surfaces. Keep cord connections off wet floors. Protect cord connections from damp surfaces and water sources. Always use the GFCI cords to reduce the risk of electrical shock. Test operation of GFCI before each use. (See Page 40) Do not use outdoors. Do not use in standing water.

• 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.

• 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 damaged cord or heater, or return to authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.

heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

•

Always turn Heater OFF and keep air mover running for 5 minutes to

cool heater before turning air mover OFF. If air flow is turned off and the unit is not cooled properly the

heater box and front grill may get very hot, creating a burn hazard or damaging the unit.

• Restriction of the air flow from the heater snout may cause E-TES SD to overheat and shutoff.

• Adequate air flow must be maintained across heating elements for proper, safe operation. Do not disable

airflow sensor or other safety switches, doing so may result in damage to heater and will void warranty.

• Do not direct the outlet air flow towards objects which may be damaged by heat.

• Remove Feet or carpet clamps from snout of air mover before placing air mover into E-TES SD Electric

Thermal Exchanger to prevent damage to air seal gasket.

•
