OPERATION WITH PORTABLE GENERATOR
WARNING: Before operating
heater or any appliance from a
portable generator, verify that
generator has been properly con-

grounding or failure to ground
generator can result in electro-
cution if a ground fault occurs.
Refer to owner's manual supplied
by generator manufacturer for
proper grounding procedures.
Operating voltage range of heater is 95 to 135
Volts. Prior to plugging heater into generator
output voltage should be verified (if generator
