This document describes the Oil Filled Radiator Heater, Item No.: SH37, a device designed for indoor heating in residential, office, and personal shop environments. It is not intended for industrial or commercial applications.

Function Description

The Oil Filled Radiator Heater operates by heating oil contained within its fins, which then radiates heat into the surrounding space. This method provides a consistent and comfortable warmth. The heater is equipped with a thermostat control that allows users to set and maintain a desired room temperature. It offers multiple power levels—Low (600 watts), Medium (900 watts), and High (1500 watts)—providing flexibility to adjust the heat output based on comfort needs and room size. The heater is designed for upright operation and should be placed in the coldest area of the room for optimal performance.

Usage Features

Assembly: Before initial use, some assembly is required to attach the casters to the heater body. This involves turning the heater upside down, securing U-bolts and pedals to the base, and then attaching the casters to the pedals with nuts. Once assembled, the heater should be turned upright.

Power Connection: The heater plugs directly into a standard 120 volt A.C. 60 Hz outlet. It is crucial to ensure a tight connection to prevent overheating and damage to the plug or heater. To avoid overloading electrical circuits, the heater should not be plugged into a circuit that is already servicing other electrical needs.

Starting the Heater: To activate the heater, users press one or both power switches. Pressing one switch typically activates the Low or Med heat mode, while pressing both switches engages the High heat mode.

Thermostat Control: Once the heater is on and the room has reached the desired temperature, the thermostat control should be slowly rotated counterclockwise until the heater shuts off (indicated by a faint "click"). Leaving the thermostat at this setting allows the heater to automatically maintain the set temperature. To adjust the temperature, rotate the control further counterclockwise for a lower temperature or clockwise for a higher temperature.

Safety Features:

Power Indicator Light: A light on the Power Switch illuminates when the heater is on, indicating it has power.
Automatic Overheat Protection: The heater includes an internal automatic overheat protection device. If the heater becomes covered or too hot, this device will automatically turn the unit off. To reset, both power switches must be turned to "O" (Off), the heater unplugged, and allowed to cool for 10 minutes before being plugged back in and restarted. Proper airflow around the heater is essential to prevent repeated shut-offs.
Safety Tip-Over Switch: The heater is equipped with a safety tip-over switch that automatically cuts power if the unit tips over. To resume operation, the heater must be placed upright on a level surface.

Important Safety Instructions for Use:

Always unplug the heater when not in use.
Do not operate the heater with blade guards or any safety devices removed.
Avoid running the power cord under carpeting or covering it with throw rugs; arrange the cord away from traffic areas to prevent tripping.
The use of extension cords is generally discouraged due to fire risk. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, it must meet specific minimum gauge and wattage ratings.
Never insert any objects into the heater's openings to avoid electric shock or fire.
The heater is intended for dry environments only and should not be used in bathrooms, laundry areas, near sinks, washing machines, swimming pools, or other water sources. It should never be placed where it could fall into water or used outdoors or in damp environments.
Avoid touching the hot surfaces of the heater during use to prevent burns. Use the provided handles when moving the heater.
Do not use the heater near combustible materials, flammable gases, or sources of heat. Maintain a minimum distance of 3 feet (0.9 m) between the heater and combustible materials like furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains.
Do not block air intakes or exhausts, and avoid placing the heater on soft surfaces like beds where openings could be blocked.
Do not operate the heater with a damaged power cord or plug, or if it has malfunctioned or been dropped.
Do not operate the heater with its ventilation obstructed.
This warranty is void if the product is used for purposes other than private household use.

Maintenance Features

Cleaning:

Before cleaning, always disconnect the power cord and allow the heater to cool completely.
The heater should be cleaned at least once a year to maintain proper performance.
Clean the outside surface with a damp cloth and allow it to dry completely before use.
Do not use harsh chemical or abrasive cleaners.
Never immerse the heater in water.
Do not operate the heater without the grill in place.

Repair:

Users should not attempt to open the heater to clean or service the inside. All repairs should be handled by a qualified service dealer.

Storage and Movement:

Keep the original carton for long-term storage.
Unplug the heater and wrap the cord around the cord storage plate when not in use to prevent damage to the cord and plug.
To move the heater on its casters, place two or three fingertips beneath the top edge of the Pull Handle and your thumb on top of the handle, then pull the heater forward. The plastic handle is designed not to become hot during heater use.
Do not pull on the cord to roll the heater.
Do not place hands on the heater fins to roll the heater unless it is completely cooled down.
