physical, sensory, or mental capabilities.

INSTALLATION WARNING—To reduce risk of re, electrical

shock and injury to persons, observe the following:

- A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not

use it in areas where gasoline, paint, or ammable liquids are

used or stored.

- Do not use this heater in an RV, boat or during any

application where battery power is converted to AC power.

- Place this product at least 3 feet away on all sides from

electrical outlets, furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes,

curtains and other objects that may cause or catch on re.

Do not place the heater near a bed because objects such as

pillows or blankets can fall off the bed and be ignited by the

heater.

- To prevent a possible re, do not place the heater on soft

surfaces, like a bed, where air intakes or exhaust can be

blocked in any manner.

- No part of this product (the appliance, power cord, plug,

packaging, etc.) should be placed near furnaces, replaces,

stoves or other high temperature heat sources.

- Do not use on an uneven or unstable surface.

- Do not use this product on an elevated surface such as a

shelf or desktop. Use only while placed on the oor. Operate

only in the upright position.

- This appliance, power supply, power cord and plug cannot

come into contact with water. Do not use this product on

wet surfaces. Do not use this product in a bathtub or shower

or position where it may fall into a bathtub, shower, laundry,

swimming pool or other water container. Do not use in a

window, outdoors, or exposed to weather or elements.

- Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with

throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route under

furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away from trafc area

and where it will not be tripped over. The cord should not

hang over edges of counters or be placed where it can be

crimped or closed in doors. Place appliance near an easily

accessible outlet so the product can be unplugged quickly

during an emergency.

- Do not modify the product with any aftermarket accessory.

SAFE USE WARNING—To reduce risk of re, electrical

shock and injury to persons, observe the following:

- Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other

use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause re,

electric shock, or injury to persons.

6English

- Extreme caution is required at all times a heater is in

operation. Always unplug heater when not in use. Vornado

does not recommend unattended and unsupervised use of

this heater.

- This 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.

- Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.

Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap

(outlet/power strip).

- Do not use this heater on a surge-protected unit or Ground

Fault Circuit Interrupted (GFCI) outlet.

- Before plugging power cord into electrical outlet, be sure

that all electrical information on the rating label, including

voltage, is compatible with your outlet’s power supply.

- To reduce likelihood of circuit overload, re and electric

shock, do not operate with a solid state speed device, such

as a dimmer control switch. Do not use this heater with a

timer designed to automatically turn the unit on or off, as this

may accidentally disable the heater’s thermal cutout safety

feature. Use of this appliance on the same electrical circuit as

another high energy use product, such as a vacuum cleaner,

blender, variable speed fan or circular saw is not advised.

- Risk of re. Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord

or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been dropped

or damaged in any manner. Discard heater, or return to

authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.

- Do not sit or stand on product.

- Never use the cord as a handle or otherwise yank, strain or

stretch the power cord.

- 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 the heater.

- Check your heater cord and plug connections. A loose tting

outlet can cause the plug to overheat or cause a re. Be

sure plug ts tight in the outlet. Check frequently during use

to make sure plug and outlet are not hot. If so, discontinue

using heater and have outlet replaced by a qualied

electrician.

- Never ignore the signs of an electrical problem, such

as: warm outlet coverplates, sparks when plugging in or

operating, lights ickering/dimming during operation.

Immediately turn off and unplug the appliance if any such

problems are noticed. Contact a qualied electrician to

investigate possible causes before operating the appliance

again.

- Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances,

overheating of the outlet may occur even if it has not

occurred with the other appliances.

- Before moving, repositioning, servicing, cleaning and when

not in use, use the product controls to turn off the power

and then unplug. To disconnect from outlet, grasp and pull

only the plug. Also, power off and unplug if the product will

be left unattended for an extended period of time or during

electrical storms.

- This product’s power cord is equipped with a three-prong,

English

grounded plug that must be inserted into a grounded

receptacle. Connect to properly grounded outlets only.

- This heater is for use with 120 volt electrical outlets. The

cord has a plug as shown at A in Figure 68.1, below. An

adapter as shown at C is available for connecting three-

blade grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The

green grounding lug extending from the adapter must

be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly

grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used if a

three-slot grounded receptacle is available.

If your heater suddenly stops working:

• This heater is equipped with a thermal cutout safety feature

designed to automatically shut off when overheating is

detected. See the “RESET HEATER” instructions in this

guide to determine how to check and reset the heater.

• If the heater and other electrical products suddenly stop

working at the same time, your home circuit breaker

or fuse may have tripped due to an overload of power.

Consider only running your heater on the “low” setting,

only running one heater at once and unplugging all other

electrical products while running the heater, and/or hiring

an electrician to install an additional circuit to your home’s

electrical system.

SERVICING WARNING—To reduce risk of re, electrical

shock and injury to persons, observe the following:

- Clean your product regularly, only as is instructed in this

manual. Prior to cleaning, turn off the power on your

product and unplug. Do not use gasoline, thinners, solvents,

ammonias or other chemicals for cleaning. Refer to the

CLEANING instructions provided.
