IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURES

The power indicator light, located near the control panel,

lights whenever the heater is plugged in. 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. To reset the heater, simply turn power off and

unplug the heater for 10 minutes until it cools down and

you may plug in and restart the heater. Be sure that the

heater is on a smooth level surface with no obstructions.

If the heater is tipped over, the automatic tip-over switch

will turn off the heating elements until the heater is

upright.
