product.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL HAZARD IF NOT ADHERED TO. 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:
This heater must be plugged into a 120 V, 15 amp (or more) circuit of its own. Do not plug anything
else into the same circuit. If unsure if your home meets this specification, consult a certified
electrician prior to use. Risk of fire, overheating, malfunction, property damage, injury, or
even death may result if not adhered to!
Connect to a properly grounded, 3-prong outlet only. Do not connect the heater to extension cords,
surge protectors, timers, direct breakers, or an outlet with other appliances connected to the same
outlet. Risk of fire, overheating, malfunction, property damage, injury, or even death may
result if not adhered to!
This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surfaces. Use handles
(certain models) or wheels to move 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 of the
heater.
Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children, invalids, pets, or when
the heater is left operating unattended.
Always unplug the heater when not in use.
Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater malfunctions, has been
dropped, or damaged in any manner. Contact the manufacturer for resolution options.
Do not use outdoors. Exposure to outdoor elements such as rain, snow, sun, wind, or extreme
temperatures may cause the heater to become a safety hazard.
This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas, and similar indoor locations, nor
any locations that use GFCI outlets.
Never place the heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water receptacles.
Do not run the cord under carpet. Do not cover the cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar
coverings. Arrange the cord away from traffic areas and where it will not be tripped over.
The heater must be plugged into a wall outlet that is a dedicated circuit with a minimum 15 amp
rating on that individual circuit.
To disconnect the heater, first turn the power button to the OFF position and then remove the plug
from the wall outlet.
Do not allow foreign objects to enter or block any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause
electric shock, fire, or damage the heater.
Allow at least 3 ft. of unobstructed space to the front and rear of the heater to allow for maximum
heat, air, and ventilation flow.
A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in areas where gasoline, paint,
or flammable liquids are used or stored, nor use flammable solvents to clean the heater. Keep the
heater dry at all times.
Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Do not use abrasive solvents to clean the heater as it may cause
damage to the finish or casing.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Tip-Over Safety Feature
This heater is equipped with a tip-over safety feature. Once the heater is tipped over, an internal
switch will automatically shut the heater off. Once the heater is restored to an upright position, the
heater will reset. To continue operation, turn on the heater using the supplied remote control or the
control panel on the heater.
Overheat Safety Feature
This heater is equipped with an overheat safety feature. When the internal components of the
heater reach a certain temperature that could cause overheating or possible fire, the heater will
automatically shut off.
WARNING: This heater has a voltage
rating of 120 volts. The cord has a three-
blade, grounding-type plug. An adapter
is available for connecting three-blade
grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles.
The 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.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Please review these frequently asked questions on the next few pages prior to using your heater.
Q. My heater emits a strange odor when I first open the box and when I turn the heater on for
the first time. Why is this happening?
A. This is normal. This heater is treated with a special heat safe/resistant coating. This odor will
sometimes be present when the box is opened. When the coating is exposed to heat, it produces this
particular odor during the first few hours of operation. This will dissipate after the break-in period. If
you are sensitive to odors, you may want to pre-burn the unit in a garage with the door open until the
initial odor dissipates.
Q. If my heater runs on approximately 1,000 watts, how many BTUs is that? Is that a lot of
heat?
A. At 1,000 watts, your heater will produce approximately 3,400 BTUs. This heater is intended to be
used as supplemental heat in areas most needed. It may take several minutes to several hours to
heat your area, depending on various factors.
Q. Can the heating elements be replaced?
A. Replacement heating elements can be obtained from the manufacturer. All parts may be
purchased through the manufacturer if your product is out of warranty. If you feel that the elements
are definitely faulty right out of the box, contact technical support. A representative can then direct you
to the next step.
Q. Once I plug the unit in and turn it on, how long will it take to heat my room?
A. The heating process in the heater begins immediately upon powering on and setting the desired
temperature above the ambient temperature. A noticeable change in the ambient temperature of the
room will vary due to variables such as the location of the heater (in the home), floor plan and size of
the room, how well the room is insulated, how many doors/windows, how much bare concrete (acts
as a heat sink with any type of heating), the opening and closing of an exterior door, long hallways,
high ceilings, etc. Customers with smaller rooms experience quick heat changes. Rooms with larger
and open floor plans can expect up to 24 hours to completely heat up.
Q. I do not have a grounded outlet. Can I use a 2-prong power strip, or remove the ground
prong from the cord?
A. NO! If you do not have a grounded outlet, contact a certified electrician for advice. Removing
or altering any part of the heaters original design or intent (including the power cord) will void the
warranty and make you liable for any unexpected or hazardous results.
7
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. Can I use more than one heater at a time? Can I use the heater and another appliance at the
same time?
A. Yes, but make sure they are not plugged into the same circuit. Each heater requires its own
minimum 15-amp circuit with no other items plugged into that circuit or outlet. This is because heaters
are considered appliances and draw out high amperage. If you are unsure whether your circuit meets
these requirements, verify with a certified electrician.
WARNING: Risk of fire, damage to property, or injury may result if requirements are not met.
Q. Why does my heaters fan continue to run after the set temperature is reached or the power
is turned off?
A. This is normal. The heaters fan will continue to run even after the heater automatically cycles
down. The fan continues to run so that every last bit of heat is blown out of the heat chamber while
allowing the unit to continue filtering your air. Once the internal box/components cool completely, the
fan should then shut off on its own. In this case, allow a few minutes after the heat cycles off (with
power on). The fan will shut off faster when the power is turned off.
Q. My heaters power cord gets warm. My cord is showing signs of heat or melting at the
outlet. Is this normal?
A. A warm power cord is normal. These power cords are rated safe for up to 105C/ 221F by the UL,
CSA, or ETL. The exception is, if you detect heat, smoke, or signs of melting at the contact point of
the wall outlet, it may be due to loose or worn wall contacts (or arcing). Please stop using the heater
immediately, contact warranty support for a replacement power cord, and have a certified electrician
replace the wall outlet as soon as possible.

PREPARATION
Place the heater on a firm, level surface and plug into a grounded 120 V, 60 Hz power outlet. Only
operate heater in upright position.
Please note that infrared heaters do not heat like a traditional space heater. You should not expect
infrared heaters to blow hot air like a traditional space heater. Infrared heaters heat objects not air.
Infrared heaters are intended to supplement an already heated, insulated room. Square footage
specifications assume a single enclosed room not an entire home. Infrared heaters do not heat
through walls, floors, and are not intended to replace a main heat source. Infrared heat can take at
least 24 hours to warm a room but operate much more efficiently to maintain the desired temperature.
Infrared heaters will not work well in uninsulated unheated spaces like screened in porches, RVs,
garages, unheated basements, etc.
