4. To obtain a desirable
temperature, there is an area
indicated on the Temperature
Control Knob known as the
“Comfortable Zone.” You
can adjust the knob to select a
temperature within this range.
5. Anti-Freeze Setting
This setting keeps the
temperature of the
surrounding area above
freezing to prevent pipes
from breaking. To do this,
simply plug in the heater and
turn the Temperature Control
Knob to the “Snowflake”
position. The heater will
automatically turn on when
the ambient temperature
drops below 41°F.
6. Overheat Safety Protection
The heater comes equipped
with overheat safety
protection, so it can detect if
it is overheating and will
automatically shut off. When
the unit temperature falls
again, power will be resumed.
To avoid overheating and
potential risk of fire, DO
NOT cover the heater.
¾ The heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot
surface. Use handles when moving this heater.
Keep combustible materials, such as drapery and other furnishings, at least 3
feet [0.9m] from the front of the heater and away from the sides and rear.
¾ Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or
invalids, or when the heater is left operating or unattended.

other water container.
