Important Safety Instructions

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:

  1. Read all instructions before using heater.
  2. This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot surface. If provided, always use handles when moving this heater. Keep combustible materials such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9m) from the front of the heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.
  3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.
  4. Always unplug the heater when not in use.
  5. 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 heater to authorized service facility for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
  6. Do not use the heater outdoors.
  7. This heater is not intended for use in bathroom, laundry areas and similar moist indoor locations. Never locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
  8. Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar coverings. Do not route cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
  9. CAUTION: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature. To do so could result in an electric shock hazard.
  10. This heater draws 12.5 amps during operation. To prevent overloading a circuit, do not plug the heater into a circuit that already has other appliances working.
  11. CAUTION: It is normal for the plug to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.
  12. To disconnect the heater, first turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet. Never pull by the cord.
  13. Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage the heater.
  14. To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft surface, like a bed, where openings may become blocked.
  15. A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use it in the areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored.
  16. 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.
  17. CAUTION: Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or reloadable power tap (outlet/power strip).
  18. The output of this heater may vary and its temperature may become intense enough to burn exposed skin. Use of this heater is not recommended for persons with reduced sensitivity to heat or an inability to react to avoid burns.

Operating Instructions

Description of Heater Components:

  • Safty grill
  • Temperature control knob
  • Power selection knob
  • Pilot light

Check before turning on the machine:

  1. Check if the power wire is in good condition.
  2. The product uses a 120V AC power supply. Before use, confirm that the rated current of the power socket meets local requirements and has a safe grounding device. If not, replace it with a qualified socket.

Put the machine on a flat place:

An uneven place may cause the turnover switch to be in an abnormal position, preventing the heater from working. Therefore, place the heater on a flat surface where the base is completely flat.

Temperature Control Knob:

Insert the plug into the power socket, then turn the Temperature Control knob clockwise. When you hear a "beep" sound (indicating the temperature controller is on), adjust the knob to the desired temperature level.

Power Switch Knob:

Turn the Power selection knob to select between 3 functions: Fan only, Low 750W (LOW), High 1500W (HIGH).

Turn off the Heater:

  1. Turn the Power Switch Knob to the OFF position.
  2. Turn the Temperature Control knob anticlockwise to the initial position.
  3. Remove the power plug and store the heater after it has completely cooled down.

Safety Protection:

  1. Overheat Protection: If the heater's temperature becomes too high due to abnormal use environment or improper use, the thermostat will automatically cut off the power, and the heater will stop working. After the heater cools down, it can be used normally again after the abnormality is removed.
  2. Inversion Protection: If the heater is inverted, the safety system will automatically cut off the power. It will return to its working state after the unit is placed upright.

Additional Features

  • Convenient Carry Handle: Allows for easy transport from room to room.

Troubleshooting

If your heater fails to operate, please follow these instructions:

  • Ensure that your circuit breaker or fuse is working properly.
  • Be sure the heater is plugged in and that the electrical outlet is working properly.
  • Check for any obstruction. If an obstruction is found, turn the heater "OFF", unplug it, and wait a few minutes for it to cool down. Carefully remove the obstruction. Plug the heater in and turn it on again by referring to the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
