Ensure the cord is not concealed under carpeting, rugs, runners, or
similar coverings� Avoid routing it under furniture or appliances and
position it away from high-traffic areas to prevent tripping hazards.
Regularly inspect your heater cord and plug connections. A loose-fitting
outlet can cause the plug to overheat or start a fire. Ensure the plug fits
tightly in the outlet� Check frequently during use to ensure the plug and
outlet are not hot� If they are, discontinue using the heater and have the
outlet replaced by a qualified electrician.
Note: Heaters draw more current than small appliances, and overheating of the outlet
may occur even if it has not happened with other appliances.
