   • Do not place the heater directly below a power outlet.
   • Position the heater to direct airflow towards the desired area. The adjustable stand allows for a 25° angle adjustment.
3. Power Connection:
   • Ensure the heater is switched OFF before plugging it into a power outlet.
   • Plug the power cord into a grounded 120V AC, 60Hz electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords if possible. If an extension cord is necessary, ensure it is rated for the heater's wattage (1500W) and is a 3-prong grounded cord.
