PREPARATION
Place the heater on a firm, level surface and plug into a grounded 120 V, 60 Hz power outlet and turn
on the power switch on the rear of the unit . Only operate heater in upright position .
Insert two AAA batteries into the remote control before using (batteries not included) .
Please note that infrared heaters do not heat like a traditional space heater . You should not expect
infrared heaters to blow hot air like a traditional space heater . Infrared heaters heat objects not air .
Infrared heaters are intended to supplement an already heated, insulated room . Square footage
specifications assume a single enclosed room not an entire home . Infrared heaters do not heat
through walls, floors, and are not intended to replace a main heat source . Infrared heat can take at
least 24 hours to warm a room but operate much more efficiently to maintain the desired temperature .
Infrared heaters will not work well in uninsulated unheated spaces like screened in porches, RV’s,
garages, unheated basements, etc .
