Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication

2.Wipe the exterior surfaces of the heater occasionally with a slightly moist cloth (not dripping wet).

Dry the case thoroughly with a soft dry cloth before operating the heater.

WARNING! Do not allow water to run into the interior of the heater as this could create a fire or electric shock hazard.

WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY: Do not use a different type of light bulb or one with output greater than 40 watts to prevent fire.

Troubleshooting

If the heater does not operate:

a.Make sure that the heater is plugged in.

b.Ensure that the outlet used is powered and that the circuit breaker is not tripped.

c.Eliminate the use of an extension cord, if possible. Otherwise, use an extension cord with less length or greater size

(a lower AWG # indicates increased size).

d.Check for any obstruction in the heater’s vents. If an obstruction is found, unplug the

heater and wait for it to cool completely. Then, carefully remove the obstruction.

If the above remedies do not solve the problem, take the heater to a qualified service technician for diagnosis and repair.
