Using the Engine Block Heater
Make sure the receptacle terminals
are clean and dry prior to use. Clean
them with a dry cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0
kilowatt-hours of energy per hour of
use. The system does not have a
thermostat. It achieves maximum
temperature after approximately
three hours of operation. Using the
heater longer than three hours does
not improve system performance and
unnecessarily uses electricity.
