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.

placed horizontally, laid down or lifted up, it stops operating to ensure safety. After placing the heater
upright it will resume operation.
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. Push the power button 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. Use the control panel to select the desired settings.
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. Con-
tact a qualified electrician to inspect the original outlet for damage.
