11. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or
exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock, fire or damage
to the heater.
12. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any
manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings
may become blocked.
13. A heater has hot or arcing or sparking pads inside. Do not use it in
areas where gasoline, paint or flammable liquids are used or stored.
14. Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not
recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock,
injury to persons or other damage to property.
15. To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other
appliance is plugged into the same outlet (receptacle) or into another
outlet (receptacle) wired into the same circuit.
16. It is normal for the heater’s plug and cord to feel warm to the touch.
A plug or cord which becomes hot to the touch or becomes distorted
in shape may be a result of a worn electrical outlet. Worn outlets or
receptacles should be replaced prior to further use of the heater.
Plugging heater into a worn outlet/ receptacle may result in
overheating of the power cord or fire.
17. Ensure the heater is on a stable, secure surface to eliminate the
potential of tipping it over.
18. We do not recommend use of an extension cord as it may overheat
and cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an extension
cord, the cord should be 1,5 mm² minimum size and rated not less
than 1875 watts, and has to be used only for supplying power to this
heater. The cord should be as short as possible (long cords coiled
up can overheat, as well as cause tripping accidents) and not used
to supply power with more than one appliance at a time.
19. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into appropriate receptacle.
Please remember that receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and
continuous use: check periodically for signs of overheating or
deformations evidenced by the plug. Should this occur, do not use
the receptacle and CALL your electrician.
20. Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable has been
damaged in any way during transportation.
