current. If using your VMH10 on the High Heat mode setting causes your home circuit
breaker or fuse to trip, we offer the following suggestions:
- Try turning off other electrical appliances that run on the same electrical circuit as
your VMH10.
- Run the VMH10 on Low Heat mode.
- Have your electrician add an additional circuit to your home’s electrical system.
- ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING THIS AND/OR ANY
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE.
- Do Not use more than one heater at a time on the same circuit.
- Never ignore or take lightly the signs of an electrical problem, such as:
- Warm outlet cover plates
- Sparking at outlet when plugging in or during operation
- Light flickering or dimming (indicates a shared circuit or problem)
- Investigate the cause of these before continuing to use the heater.
- This product must be grounded. If the product malfunctions, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for the electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The
3-prong plug must be inserted into a grounded outlet that has been properly installed in
accordance with all electric codes and ordinances. If you are in doubt as to whether or not
an outlet is properly grounded, contact a qualified electrician.
- This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as shown at A in Figure 65.1. An
adapter as shown at C is available for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs to two-
slot receptacles. The green grounding lug extending from the adapter must be connected
to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not
be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.
