FUNCIONAMIENTO (Figuras 1 y 2)
1. Cuidadosamente retire su Calefactor de la caja y la bolsa.
2. Coloque el Calefactor sobre una superficie firme y plana.
CUIDADO: Los tacos de plástico o hule, tales como las patas
de esta unidad, pueden pegarse a la superficie de los muebles y/o
a los pisos de madera. La unidad podría dejar un residuo capaz de
oscurecer, manchar o dejar marcas permanentes en el acabado de
ciertas superficies de muebles, incluyendo superficies de madera
y/o pisos de madera.
3. Asegúrese que el Calefactor esté en la posición de “APAGADO”
(0) antes de conectar el Calefactor al tomacorriente.
4. Conecte el cable a un tomacorriente de 120 voltios.
Asegúrese que el enchufe encaje firmemente en el
tomacorriente.
Cuando los enchufes quedan flojos dentro de
los tomacorrientes, podrían deslizarse parcial o
completamente fuera del tomacorriente con el menor
movimiento del cable adosado. Los tomacorrientes en
este estado podrían sobrecalentarse y representar un
peligro de incendio grave; si queda cubierto por una
cortina o tela, el peligro de incendio es todavía mayor.
5. Cuando el Calefactor sea encendido por primera vez, la Luz de
Encendido se encenderá indicando que hay electricidad en la
unidad. La Luz de Encendido permanecerá encendida hasta
que el Calefactor sea desconectado del tomacorriente eléctrico.
6. Coloque la Perilla del Termostato en la Posición Máxima ( ).
7. Mueva la Perilla de Encendido hasta la posición de calor
deseada. El Calor Alto (1500 vatios) está representado por el
(II) y el Calor Bajo por el (I).

el termostato hasta que se apague la unidad. Esto se realiza al
darle vuelta a la perilla del Termostato en el sentido contrario a las
agujas del reloj hasta el símbolo de (-).
3. El Calefactor mantendrá automáticamente el nivel de comodidad
deseado al realizar el ciclo de encendido (ON) y apagado (OFF).
Para una calefacción continua, fije el termostato hasta el símbolo (+).
NOTA: Se recomienda ajustar el termostato con cada uso. Los
