OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HEATER OPERATION
Always operate the heater in the upright position following all instructions and
recommendations listed in this manual.
HEATER LOCATION
Place the heater in the area of the room that is coldest.
HEATER CONNECTION
Plug heater directly into 120 volt A.C. 60 Hz outlet. Be sure the plug fits tightly in
outlet. A loose connection may cause overheating and damage to the plug or heater.
NOTE: To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that is
servicing other electrical needs.
POWER INDICATOR LIGHT
This heater is equipped with a Power
Indicator Light. The power light will
illuminate when the unit is turned on.
TURNING THE HEATER ON
To start the heater, turn the Power Control
dial from the OFF position "O" to the "I" or
"II" setting. Then rotate the Thermostat
Control Dial clockwise as far as it will go to
the maximum position. (During the heaters
initial use, you may experience a slight
odor or smoking. This is the result of the
heating element lubrication "burning off".
This is normal and will go away after a few
minutes of use.)
POWER CONTROL DIAL
This heater has two heat settings: High "II" and Low "I". Use the higher setting (1500
watt) to raise the room temperature quickly. When the desired temperature is reached
turn the control to the Low "l" (750 watt) setting. It is usually sufficient to maintain a
comfortable temperature.
SETTING THERMOSTAT
After heater has been turned on and the area has reached the desired temperature,
slowly rotate the Thermostat Control Dial counterclockwise until the heater shuts off
(you should hear a faint "click"). By leaving the thermostat at this setting the heater will
automatically maintain this temperature. To maintain a lower temperature, rotate the
control dial further counterclockwise toward the minimum position. To maintain a higher
temperature, rotate the control clockwise toward the maximum position.
TO OPERATE FAN ONLY
Turn thermostat control fully clockwise to the maximum position so that the fan will run
continuously.

IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURES
The power indicator light, located near the control panel, lights whenever the heater
or fan is turned on. The heater is equipped with an automatic overheat protection
device located inside the body of the heater. If the heater grill is obstructed, or if the
heater gets too hot for any reason, the automatic overheat protection device will turn
the heater off. The heater must be reset to resume operation. To reset the unit, turn the
Power Control Dial to "O" (Off) and unplug the heater. Wait for 10 minutes for the
heater to cool down. Plug the heater back in and turn the Power Control Dial to an
operating position. To prevent further automatic shut-off, locate the heater with the air
inlet grill (back of heater) spaced far enough away from a wall or other object to
allow for sufficient airflow. Always place the heater on a smooth level surface.The
heater is also equipped with a safety tip-over switch to turn power off to the heater
when the heater tips over. To resume heater functions simply stand heater upright.
