GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

1.Read all instructions before using Heater.

2.Use this Heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons.

3.Make certain that the power source conforms to the electrical require- ments of the Heater.

4.Extreme caution is necessary when any Heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the Heater is left operating unat- tended.

5.The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounded plug that must be inserted into a matching receptacle. Under no circumstances should the ground prong be cut off the plug. Where a two-prong wall recep- tacle is encountered, it must be replaced with a properly grounded three- prong receptacle installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes and ordinances. This work must be done by a qualified electrician, using copper wires only.

DO NOT USE A THREE-PRONG ADAPTER. IMPROPER CONNEC- TION MAY CAUSE THIS RISK OF ELECTROCUTION. USE OF SUCH ADAPTERS IS NOT PERMITTED IN CANADA.
