Ordinary Tower Heater
Without Adequate Heat Circulation
With Signature V-Flow™ Heat Circulation
Vornado SRTH
Ordinary heaters provide only localized heat. Heat immediately
rises to the ceiling, resulting in cold and hot spots in the room.
Vornado’s unique V-Flow Action delivers continuous, uniform
heat, surrounding everyone in the room in a warm, comfortable
temperature without the need for oscillation.

How To Use
Positioning Your Vornado Heater
Position your heater so the V-Flow distribution 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 (see IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS for safe placement
on page 4).
Placement near a wall or corner
Please position at least 6” away
from walls or other large surfaces.
Doing so will ensure your Small
Room Tower Heater has adequate
room to intake air, providing
optimum performance.
Directing the airflow
Unlike any other tower heater,
this product creates a wide
span of airflow called V-Flow™
Circulation eliminating the need
for oscillation. The Vornado logo
indicates the center point of the
V-Flow™ airstream, and can be
used as a reference point for
positioning the product in the
room.

Resetting Your Vornado Heater
Your Vornado Heater has a multi-level safety shut-off system designed

3. Wait 5–10 minutes, allowing the unit to cool down.
4. Plug in the unit and place in desired position.

or if it will not reset after following the above procedure, DO NOT

Services Department toll-free at 1-800-234-0604.
