Ordinary heaters provide only localized heat. Heat immediately rises to the ceiling, resulting in cold and hot spots in the room. Vornado’s unique Vortex Action delivers continuous, uniform heat surrounding everyone in the room in a warm, comfortable temperature.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS HEATER. SAVE THESE INTRUCTIONS.

Please visually inspect all internal and external components before connecting to electric current. If any damage is found, DO NOT USE THIS UNIT and contact Vornado Air LLC at 1-800-234-0604.

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.

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

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

Always unplug heater when not in use.

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.

Do not use outdoors.

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.

Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs,

4 5

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.

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

Connect to properly grounded outlets only.

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.

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.

Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip). Operate this heater only in its upright position.

Do not operate this heater on an elevated surface such as a shelf or desktop. Use only while placed on the ﬂoor.

This heater is equipped with a thermal safety shut-off system, designed to turn off the heater when an internal overheating condition is detected (see How To Use “RESETTING YOUR VORNADO HEATER,” to determine how to check and reset the heater).

Do not operate this product with any electronic speed-control device on the same circuit.

Do not use heater to dry human or animal hair/fur or articles of clothing.

This heater operates with an infrared remote control. Interference between this remote and other remote-control-operated electrical appliances in your home is possible.

This product is equipped with a 3-prong plug, with a grounding pin as a safety feature. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to connect to properly grounded outlets only. This plug will ﬁt into a grounded outlet only one way. Do not alter the plug. Do not attempt to defeat this safety purpose of the grounding plug. This product must be grounded. If the product malfunctions, grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The 3-prong plug must be inserted into a

grounded outlet that has been properly installed in accordance with all electric codes and ordinances. If you are in doubt as to whether or not an outlet is properly grounded, contact a qualiﬁed electrician.

This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as shown at A in Figure 65.1. An adapter as shown at C is available for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding lug 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.

HOW TO USE

Using your Vornado Heater is easy. Just follow these simple steps.

Position your heater so the vortex beam of warm air is directed across the room unobstructed. Position it in a location that is representative of the room temperature. Avoid areas of temperature extremes such as cold drafts and heat registers. Please refer to IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS at the beginning of this owner’s guide.

Plug into a standard grounded wall outlet.

Press the POWER button.

ONE-KNOB OPERATION

This innovative user interface is sophisticated yet simple. Press the knob to “wake-up” or turn on the screen on the base unit, rotate the One-Knob control unit until the desired mode you want to adjust is displayed. Press the button to accept this mode, then, rotate the knob left or right to select desired setting. The unit is then set, or you may press the One-Knob again to adjust another mode, and continue to adjust additional settings in the same manor.

REMOTE CONTROL

5. Fully control the Heater remotely with the Remote, no more getting up to adjust the temperature. You can turn the unit ON and OFF, switch the mode from FAN ONLY, to LOW HEAT or HIGH HEAT, adjust the desired set temperature up or down, and set the automatic-off timer. As you adjust the remote, the base unit will “beep” to indicate that it has received your signal.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Your heater has no user serviceable parts. Do not disassemble the unit – it will void your warranty. If service is required, return your heater to Vornado (see Warranty section).

The motor is permanently lubricated and requires no oiling.

Because your heater moves a substantial amount of air, it will require regular cleaning. Be sure to unplug the unit prior to any cleaning activity.

Use a vacuum cleaner with the brush attachment to clean any accumulated dust on the front grill and the side air inlets. During the off-season or extended periods of non-use, store your heater. Unplug the unit and bundle the cord. Save the plastic bag the heater was shipped in so you can cover the unit and minimize settling dust.
