IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, some basic safety precautions should be observed to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons. Specifically:
1. Read all instructions carefully before using the appliance.
2. This appliance gets very hot when in use. To prevent burns, do not touch hot surfaces with
bare skin. Use handles when moving the heater. Keep flammable materials such as furniture,
pillows, bedding, paper, clothing and curtains at least 3 feet (90 cm) from the front and top
of heater, and also avoid contact with the sides and back.
3. It can be very dangerous to leave the appliance unattended while in operation when children
or disabled persons are present.
4. Always disconnect the plug from the power outlet when the appliance is not in use.
5.
Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after faulty operation, or when it has
been damaged in any way. Return the heater to the nearest authorized service facility for examina-
tion, adjustment of the electrical or mechanical parts, or for any repairs.
6. Do not use the appliance outdoors.
7. Do not use the heater in bathrooms, laundry rooms, or similar indoor areas. Never position
the heater where it could fall into a bathtub or other water container.
8. Do not run power cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or
similar items. Keep the cord away from passageways where it could be tripped over.
9. To disconnect the appliance, turn controls to off, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
10.Do not insert or allow foreign objects to get into the air intake or outlet vents, as this may
cause electric shock, fire, or damage to the appliance.
11. To prevent the risk of fire, do not obstruct the air intakes or exhaust in any way. Do not place
the appliance on soft surfaces, such as a bed, where openings could be obstructed.
12.The internal parts of the appliance can get very hot or produce sparks during operation.
Therefore, do not use the heater in rooms where gasoline, varnish, or other flammable
liquids are used or stored.
13. Use the appliance only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
14. To prevent current overload and blown fuses, make sure that no other appliance is plugged
into the same outlet or into another outlet on the same circuit.
15. It is normal for the plug and cord of the heater to feel warm to the touch during normal ope-
ration. However, an excessively hot or deformed plug or cord is not normal and may be the
result of a defective electrical outlet. Defective outlets must be replaced before using the
appliance. Repeated use of defective outlets may cause the cord to overheat, with the risk of
causing a fire.
16.We do not recommend using extension cords, which can overheat and increase the risk of fire.
However, an extension cord with 14 AWG gauge or larger and rating of no less than 1875 W
may be used if necessary, but should not be shared with other electrical appliances.
17. Make sure that the power cord plug is fully inserted into the outlet. Wall outlets may deterio-
rate with time, so check the plug periodically for signs of overheating or deformation, in
which case stop using the outlet and have it repaired.
18. Check that neither the appliance nor the power cord has been damaged during shipping.
19.The first time the heater is turned on, run it at maximum power for at least 2 hours. During
this time, ventilate the room well to eliminate the odor of “newness” emitted by the
appliance. It is normal for the appliance to make “creaking” sounds the first time it is tur-
ned on.
20.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, make sure the wide prong of the plug is inserted in the wide slot
of the outlet. Do not open the appliance. No user-serviceable parts inside.
21. Do not cover the appliance while in operation, which could cause overheating and the risk of fire.
