SET-UP

Place the heater on a firm, level, open surface free from obstructions and at least 3 feet (0.9 m) away from any wall or combustible material. DO NOT use on an unstable surface such as bedding or deep carpeting.

BE SURE THE HEATER IS NOT IN A POSITION WHERE IT MAY BE A TRIPPING HAZARD.

For best result, place heater on the floor to create warming room convection and allow heater to run for 5-10 minutes to reach maximum heat output.

MOVING THE HEATER

Operation Cost*

To estimate the cost to operate this heater, multiply the watts used by 0.001 to convert into kilowatts then multiply the kilowatts used by your local kilowatt hour electric rate for however long you run the heater. For example, if your electric rate is \0.1326** per kilowatt hour and you ran this heater in constant high mode (1500 watts) for 4 hours, it would cost you \0.80 cents to run the heater (1500 watts x 4 hours x 0.001) x \0.1326 kwp = \0.80 cents).

NOTE: The Low setting does not require as much electricity to operate, it is more energy efficient and may be a better option if you are concerned about the higher power consumption when the heater is on the High setting.
