Safety Information (continued)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
A 15-Amp, 120-Volt, 60 Hz circuit with a properly grounded outlet is required. Preferably, the item will be on a
dedicated circuit, as other appliances on the same circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse to blow
when the heater is in operation. The unit comes standard with a 6 ft. (1.8 m) long three wire cord, exiting the right side
of the item. Always plug the unit into a wall outlet/receptacle. An extension cord or re-locatable power tap, (outlet/
power strip), should never be used.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as shown at (A) in Figure 1. An adapter as shown at (C) is available
for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding lug extending from the
adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used
if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.
