PREPARATION Place the heater on a firm, level surface and plug into a grounded 120 V, 60 Hz power outlet and turn on the power switch on the rear of the unit. Only operate heater in upright position. Insert two AAA batteries into the remote control before using (batteries not included). Please note that infrared heaters do not heat like a traditional space heater. You should not expect infrared heaters to blow hot air like a traditional space heater. Infrared heaters heat objects not air. Infrared heaters are intended to supplement an already heated, insulated room. Square footage specifications assume a single enclosed room not an entire home. Infrared heaters do not heat through walls, floors, and are not intended to replace a main heat source. Infrared heat can take at least 24 hours to warm a room but operate much more efficiently to maintain the desired temperature. Infrared heaters will not work well in uninsulated unheated spaces like screened in porches, RV's, garages, unheated basements, etc. TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION The heater does not turn on. 1.
