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 120 V 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 locations.  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.

it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used 

or stored.

in any manner. DO NOT use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where 

openings may become blocked.
