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

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.

Your heater is equipped with a technologically advanced 1Touch

TM

electronic thermostat. You can set the heater to run continuously in
manual mode or set the 1Touch

TM

Thermostat to your desired temperature

setting. The 1Touch

TM

thermostat will automatically turn the heater ON or

OFF depending on the preset comfort level. The comfort level ranges
between 60º and 80º Fahrenheit. 
Manual Mode Instructions:
1.  Plug the heater into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
2.  To start the unit, push the MODE/OFF button once for the HIGH

only the LOW or HIGH power light will be lit.

TM

To  take advantage of the 1Touch

TM

Thermostat continue to press the

MODE/OFF button until the desired temperature is set in either the HIGH

or LOW setting. When ambient temperature rises above the set

temperature, the heater will stop. When the ambient temperature drops

below the set temperature, the heater will turn on automatically.
Note: When the 1Touch

TM

thermostat is set, either the HIGH or LOW power

light, and the set temperature light will remain lit during operation.

(See Fig. 1 and 2)
Note: It is normal for the heater to cycle ON and OFF as it maintains the

preset temperature. To prevent the unit from cycling, you need to raise

the thermostat setting.

previous temperature setting after the unit has been turned off. However,

if the unit is unplugged, the 1Touch

TM

thermostat will be reset and will no

longer remember the previous temperature setting.
Note: This unit is equipped with a thermister located on the power cord.

This thermister is never to be tampered with in any way. It is responsible

for reading temperatures and adjusting the thermostat accordingly. It will

be most accurate when placed away from any heat source.
