IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
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:
1. Read all instructions before using this heater.
2. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns,
do not continually let bare skin touch hot
surfaces. If provided, use handle 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.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is
used by or near children or invalids and whenever
the heater is left operating and unattended.
4. Always unplug heater when not in use.
5. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord
or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been
dropped or damaged in any manner.
6. Do not use outdoors.
7. This heater is rated at 1500W, 120 VAC. It is
intended for use on tabletops or desktops and
floors. It is not to be used in wet or moist
locations, such as bathrooms and laundry areas.
If an extension cord must be used, it must be 14
gauge or larger and rated no less than 1875
watts.
8. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover
cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like.
Arrange cord away from traffic area where it will
not be tripped over.
9. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in
a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit
securely in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.
10. This heater draws 12.5 amps during operation
when in the high setting. To prevent overloading
a circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that
already has other appliances working.
11. It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch;
however, a loose fit between the AC outlet
(receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and
distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified
electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.
12. To disconnect the heater, first turn controls to the
OFF position, then grip the plug and pull it from
the wall outlet. Never pull by the cord.
13. 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.
14. 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.
15. A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts
inside. Do not use it in the areas where gasoline,
paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
16. 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.
17. The output of this heater may vary and its
temperature may become intense enough to burn
exposed skin. Use of this heater is not
recommended for persons with reduced
sensitivity to heat or an inability to react to avoid
burns.
