plug periodically for signs of overhea- ting or deformation. If the outlet has deteriorated, stop using it and have it repaired.
21.Check that neither the appliance nor the power cord have been damaged during shipping.
22.Make sure that no styrofoam or other packing materials remain in the applian- ce.
23.The first time the appliance is used, run it at the maximum power for at least two hours. During this time, ven- tilate the room thoroughly to eliminate the “new” smell released by the appliance. It is completely normal for
the appliance to emit “creaking” sounds the first time it is run.
24.CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, make sure the wide prong of the plug is inserted in the wide slot of the outlet.
25.Do not place the heater near a bed because objects such as pillows or blankets can fall off the bed and be ignited by the heater.
26.Extreme caution is necessary whenever the heater is left operating unattended.
27.Do not open the appliance. No user- serviceable parts inside.
