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 the engine.
②
The heater is hot when in use.
To avoid burns, do not let bare skin
touch hot surfaces. The trim around
the heater outlet becomes hot dur-
ing heater operation.
DANGER:
High temperatures
may be generated under certain ab-
normal conditions. Do not partially
of fully cover the front of this heater.
③
Extreme caution is necessary
when any heater is used by or near
children or invalids and whenever
the unit is left operating and unat-
tended.
④ Always unplug the engine
when not in use.
⑤ Do not operate any unit with
a damaged cord or plug, or if
the engine has been dropped or
damaged in any manner. Contact
Dimplex Technical Service at
1-888-346-7539.
⑥ Do not use outdoors.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
⑦ Never locate unit where it may
fall into a bathtub or other water
container.
⑧ To disconnect the unit, turn
the controls off, then remove the
plug from the outlet or disconnect
power at the service panel.
⑨ Always use properly grounded,
fused and polarized outlets.
⑩
Do not insert or allow foreign
objects to enter any ventilation or
exhaust opening as this may cause
an electric shock or re, or damage
to the heater.
⑪
To prevent a possible re, do not
block air intake or exhaust in any
manner. Do not use on soft surfac-
es, like a bed, where openings may
become blocked.
⑫
All electrical heaters have hot
and arching or sparking parts inside.
Do not use in areas where gasoline,
paint, or ammable liquids are used
or stored or where the unit will be
exposed to ammable vapors.
⑬ Do not modify the engine.
Use it only as described in this
manual. Any other use not recom-
mended by the manufacturer may
cause re, electric shock or injury
to persons.

Always plug heaters directly into a
wall outlet/receptacle. Never use
with an extension cord or relocat-
able power tap (outlet/power strip).
⑮ Do not burn wood or other
materials in the engine.
⑯ Always use a certied electri-
cian should new circuits or outlets
be required.

types - may explode or leak caus-
ing injury.
!NOTE: Changes or modica-
tions not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compli-
ance could void user's authority to

Installation
The Optimyst Pro is supplied
in an assembled state and is
designed to be permanently in-
stalled. The unit comes ready for
hardwire installation.
WARNING: Construction and
electrical outlet wiring must
comply with local building
codes and other applicable
regulations to reduce the risk
of re, electric shock and injury
to persons.
WARNING: To reduce the
risk of re, do not store or use
gasoline or other ammable
vapors or liquids in the vicinity
of the heater.
!NOTE: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt cir-
cuit is required. A dedicated circuit
is preferred but not essential in all
cases. A dedicated circuit will be
required if, after installation, the
circuit breaker trips or the fuse
blows on a regular basis when the
heater is operating. Additional ap-
pliances on the same circuit may
exceed the current rating of the
circuit breaker.
WARNING: Failure to install
the replace as instructed
below may result in damage
to the equipment and or may
expose the user to the risk of
re, serious injury, illness or
death.
WARNING: Do not attempt to
wire your own new outlets or
circuits. To reduce the risk of
re, electric shock or injury to
persons, always use a li-
censed electrician.
WARNING: Ensure that the
On/Off switch is set to the Off
position (refer to Operation
section) and that the circuit
on which the replace is to be
installed has the power cut off
at the service panel until instal-
lation is complete.
!NOTE: Please read all instruc-
tions before installing.
1. For rough in framing, the
opening should follow the
recommended dimensions
