PRODUCT INFORMATION & SPECIFICATIONS
Reflective heating technology replicates the sun’s healthy rays, directly warming the object or person in front
of the heater. As the temperature of the heated surface rises, the warming effect is felt throughout the air and
surrounding areas. Reflective heaters are great for open or large rooms, and actually save you energy by warm-
ing objects and not the entire room.
Reflective heating is both safe and healthy– it produces no odors, chemicals, or fumes, and doesn’t stir up dust.
As a safety feature, the heater’s exterior does not get as warm to reduce the risk of burns from anyone or any-
thing touching the heater while in use. Remarkably efficient, our heater uses less power to create the same
amount of heat as traditional heaters. Equipped with safety tip-over switch and overheat auto-off, our heater is
safe and reliable.

SAFETY FEATURES
Polarized Plug
Warning: This heater is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). The plug is in-
tended to fit into a power outlet only one way, with the wide blade in the wide slot. This is a safety feature; if
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THE POLARIZED PLUG.
Tip-Over Safety Switch
This heater equipped with tip-over safety switch located underneath the base of the heater. This switch must be
pressed inward for the heater to function properly. Some soft surfaces such as carpet may not be able to fully
press in this switch. For some soft surfaces, a hard flat object will need to be placed underneath the heater for it
to function properly. PLEASE DO NOT TAPE OR GLUE THIS SWITCH.

Unplug the heater when not in use
NOTE: A tip-over safety protection switch is installed at the bottom of the heater. When the heater is not
placed horizontally, laid down or lifted up, it stops operating to ensure safety. After placing it upright the
heater will resume operation. (See Page 4 for more information).
NOTE: For safety, if the heater’s internal temperature rises above a certain point, the heater is designed
to automatically shut off. To restart the heater in this situation:
1. Turn the Operating Knob to OFF.
2. Unplug the power cord from the outlet and allow the heater to cool for at least 10 minutes.
3. Plug the power cord back into the outlet. Turn the knobs located on top to select the desired setting.
WARNING: It is normal for the power cord to feel warm to the touch; however, a loose fit between the outlet
and the plug may cause overheating of the plug. If this occurs, try inserting the plug into a different outlet.
Contact a qualified electrician to inspect the original outlet for damage.
