When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

1.Read all instructions before using this heater.

Keep combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.

3.Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.

properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.

10.This heater draws 12.5 amps during operation. To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that already has other appliances working.

11.It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.

12.To disconnect the heater, first turn off the product, then grip the plug and pull it from the wall outlet. Never pull by the cord.

13.Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage the heater.

14.To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.

15.A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in the areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.

16.Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock,

or injury to persons.

17.Avoid the use of an extension cord because the extension cord may overheat and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an extension cord, the cord shall be No. 14 AWG minimum size and rated not less than 1875 watts. The extension cord shall be a three wire cord with a grounding-type cord and plug connector.
