2. Safety
The following guidelines will allow you to enjoy your UFO heater while minimizing the
possibility of personal injury or property damage.
2.1 Electrical Connections
• Check whether your heater and power cord are damaged before operating your heater.
In case of damage, do not operate your heater and contact to an authorized technical service.
• Connect your UFO heater to a properly rated circuit.
A minimum of 15 amps is recommended. Many household
circuits are rated at 15 amps, but if other appliances are
on the same circuit, the breaker may trip. If this is the
case, consider moving your heater to a higher-rated circuit,
either by using a properly rated extension cord (min. 14
awg.), or by having the circuit rewired to higher capability.
Ensure that the grounding capability of your heater’s power
cord is maintained. Never use a three-prong to two-prong
adapter without securing an additional grounding location.
• When using your UFO heater in kitchens, baths or exterior application areas (where
approved), use only an approved GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet.
Never locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.
• Try to orient your heater so that the power cord, plug and/or outlet are not within the
direct heating area.
• Do not allow the power cord to rest on the housing of your heater.
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because the extension cord may overheat and cause
risk of fire. However if you have to use an extension cord, the cord shall be minimum 14
AWG. And not rated less than 3000 watts.
• Do not run cord under carpeting- Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like.
Arrange cord away from the traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
• Always unplug the heater if it is not being used.
• Unless there is sufficient circuit protection (an integral over current/surge breaker) do not
use multiple plugs or extension cords.
• If you are using an outlet strip, it must be rated at 15 amps and include a breaker/reset
function.
