When using electrical appliances, basic safety 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 the appliance.

2. To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance

directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

3. The heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, DO

NOT let bare skin touch hot surfaces. If provided, use

handles when moving this heater. Keep combustible

materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers,

clothes, and curtains at least 3 ft (0.9 m) from the

front of the heater and keep them away from the

sides and rear.

4. DO NOT run cord under carpeting. DO NOT cover

cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange

cord away from traffic area and where it will not be

tripped over.

5. This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms,

laundry areas and similar indoor location. NEVER

locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or

other water container.

6. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is

used by, or near children or invalids, and whenever

the heater is left operating and unattended.

7. Always unplug the heater when not in use.

8. When unplugging, be sure to pull by the plug and

not the cord.

9. 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.

10. DO NOT operate heater with a damaged cord or

plug, or after the heater malfunctions, has been

dropped or damaged in any manner. Return

or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

DO NOT use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or

flammable liquids are used or stored.

12. Use appliance only for intended household use as

described in this manual. Any other use not

recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire,

electric shock, or injury to persons. The use of

attachments not recommended or sold by the

manufacturer may cause hazards.

13. DO NOT use outdoors.

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. To disconnect heater, turn controls to OFF, then

remove plug from outlet.
