Quick Reference Guide
① Prior to the rst use of the
replace verify the following:
• Are the circuit breakers for the
unit on?
• Are the light bulbs in your
replace loose? (To check, follow
the instructions for replacing the
light bulbs under the Maintenance
section of this manual.)
② The heater on your replace
may emit a slight, harmless odor
when rst used. This odor is a
normal condition caused by the
initial heating of internal heater
parts and will not occur again.
③ The information regarding the
model of your replace can be
found on the rating plate located
on the top of the unit.
!
NOTE 1: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt
circuit is required. A dedicated
circuit is preferred but not
essential in all cases. A
dedicated circuit will be
required if, after installation,
the circuit breaker trips or fuse
blows on a regular basis when
the heater is operating.
Additional appliances on the
same circuit may exceed the
current rating of the circuit
breaker.
WARNING: Ensure the power
cord is not installed so that it
is pinched or against a sharp
edge and ensure that the
power cord is stored or
secured to avoid tripping or
snagging to reduce the risk
of re, electric shock or injury
to persons.
Construction and electrical
outlet wiring must comply with
local building codes and other
applicable regulations to
reduce the risk of re, electric
shock and injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your
own new outlets or circuits. To
reduce the risk of re, electric
shock or injury to persons,
always use a licensed
electrician.
