section of this manual)

first used. This odor is a normal condition caused by the initial
heating of internal heater parts and will not occur again.

the rating plate located on the back of the unit.

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the
risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the milanoef.
2. The unit is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin touch hot
surfaces. The trim around the heater outlet becomes hot during heater operation. Keep
combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains
at least 3 feet (0.9m) from the front of the unit.
3. Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids
and whenever the unit is left operating and unattended.
4. Always unplug the milanoef when not in use.
5. Do not operate any unit with a damaged cord or plug, or if the heater has malfunctioned,
or if the milanoef has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
6. Do not use outdoors.
7. The milanoef is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor
locations.
8. Do not run the cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or the
like. Arrange cord away from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.
9. To disconnect the unit, turn the controls off, then remove the plug from the outlet.
10.Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this
may cause an electric shock or fire, or damage to the heater.
11.To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intake or exhaust in any manner.
12.All electrical heaters have hot and arching or sparking parts inside. Do not use in areas
where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or stored or where the unit will be
exposed to flammable vapors.
13.Do not modify the milanoef. Use it only as described in this manual. Any other use not
recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
14.Avoid the use of an extension cord. Extension cords may overheat and cause a risk of
fire. If you must use an extension cord, the cord must be No. 16 AWG minimum size
and rated no less than 1875 watts.
15.Do not burn wood or other materials in the milanoef.
16.Do not strike glass door.
17.Always use a certified electrician should new circuits or outlets be required.

of the unit.
20. When transporting or storing the unit and cord, keep in a dry place, free from excessive
vibration and store so as to avoid damage.
NOTE: Procedures and techniques that are considered important enough to emphasize.

the equipment.
WARNING: Procedures and techniques which, if not carefully followed, will expose the user to
the risk of fire, serious injury, illness or death.

NOTE
A 15amp, 120 volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred but not essential in all
cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker trips or fuse
blows on a regular basis when the heater is operating. Additional appliances on the same
circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker.
WARNING
Ensure the power cord is not installed so that it is pinched or against a sharp edge and ensure
that the power cord is stored or secured to avoid tripping or snagging to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock or injury to persons.
Construction and electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other
applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your own new outlets or circuits. To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or injury to persons, always use a licensed electrician.
milanoef INSTALLATION
1. Make sure the unit is switched OFF (refer to operating instruction section).
2. Plug the unit into a 15Amp/120volt outlet. If the cord does not reach, you may use an
