Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
•This heater becomes hot during use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use handles when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least 3 feet (90cm) away from the front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.
•Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left unattended.
•Always unplug the heater when not in use.
•Do not use outdoors.
•Do not run the cord of the heater under carpeting. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs, runners or other floor coverings. Arrange the cord away from traffic areas where it will not be tripped over.
•Do not locate the heater immediately below a socket outlet.
•Do not use this heater in the immediate surrounds of a bath, shower, laundry area or swimming pool.
•Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust openings as this may cause electric shock or fire, or damage to the heater.
•To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, such as beds, where opening may become blocked.
•A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in areas where petrol, paint or flammable liquids are used or stored.
•To prevent overheating, do not cover the heater.
•When turned on for the first time, your new heater will emit a slight odour for up to 8 hours. This is due to the initial heating of the materials used. It is safe, not detrimental to the performance of the heater and will not reoccur. Sunbeam advises that the heater be placed in a well ventilated area during this period.
