GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• This product is equipped with a cord that has an

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate

outlet that is properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

• This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a

plug as shown.

• A 15 Amp, 120 Volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred,

but not essential in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if,

regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances

on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.
