ABOUT CERAMIC TECHNOLOGY
Ceramic heaters generate heat by passing electricity through heating wires embedded in ceramic plates.
In the Honeywell Ceramic Tower Heater, air is drawn into the back of the heater by a fan, through the ceramic
element and out the front of the heater to gently introduce warm air into the room.
This type of heating technology provides consistent, even heating.
For best results, place heater on the floor and allow heater to run for 5-10 minutes to reach maximum heat output.
25. CAUTION If your home has aluminum wiring
have a licensed electrician check your receptacle's
connections. When using a 1500 watt heater,
aluminum wire connections can cause a safety
issue.
26. WARNING Hyperthermia can result in death.
Symptoms of hyperthermia include high body
temperature, headache, nausea, vomiting,
tiredness, dizziness, fainting, and rapid pulse.
If you begin to experience symptoms related to
hyperthermia, turn off heater and seek medical
attention.
27. WARNING To avoid excessive room temperature
which can cause hyperthermia; DO NOT leave
product running unattended in a confined space
