Note: Follow all national and local electrical codes.

Note: This heater must be electrically wired and grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C2.1 as appropriate.

All wiring must be done by a qualified electrician. Use appropriate wire to meet local and national codes for rated power consumption.

CAUTION

Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.

WARNING

Shock Risk

Fire Risk

Improperly protected power cords could cause electrical shock or fire.

•Do not pinch the cord or lay against a sharp object.

•Do not cover the cord with carpeting, throw rugs or runners.

•Secure and arrange cord to avoid a tripping hazard.

•Do not coil cord.

WARNING

Shock Risk

Improperly grounded outlets could cause electrical shock.

•Always use properly grounded, fused and polarized outlets.

•Always used ground fault protection where required by electrical code.

CAUTION

Disconnect remote controls during your extended absence. This will prevent accidental operation of the heater.

A. 120VAC Wall Outlet Installation

•The heater is wired from factory with a polarized plug.

•For ease of electrical hook up, you may wish to install the heater near an existing outlet. 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 trips or fuse blows on a regular basis when the heater is operated. Additional appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.

•Before plugging heater into wall outlet, make sure all control switches are in the “OFF” position. To access the controls, lift up on the lower grille panel and rotate it forward.

•If the power cord is not being used, go to Step B below. If the cord does not reach the outlet, a No. 16-AWG minimum wire size extension cord rated for a minimum of 1875 watts may be used. Use minimum length and do not coil cord.

B. 120VAC Hardwire Installation

•Turn off circuit breaker.

•Access knockout.

•Remove the access cover plate.

•Disconnect the power cord from the terminal block.

•Remove the knockout and install the cable clamp (not provided) into the hole.

•Feed 8 in. of service wire through the cable clamp and secure.

•Connect the black wire from the service to the L1 terminal.

•Connect the white wire from the service to the N terminal.

•Connect the green (ground) from the service to the GND terminal.

•Optional wall switch wiring is to be done at this time.

•Replace access cover plate.
