combustible materials such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes,
and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the heater and keep
them away from the sides and rear. Ensure a minimum clearance of 5.5
inches (14 cm) from both sides and rear of heater to adjacent walls. Keep the
rear grille away from walls or drapes so as not to block the air intake.

invalids, and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.
• Always unplug the heater when not in use. To disconnect, grip plug and pull
from wall outlet. Never yank on cord.
