We recommend that you do the following for safe and correct operation:

• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord that is product certified by

Underwriter’s Laboratory or Canadian Standards Association. This

extension cord must be able to be used outdoors, in cold

temperatures, and be clearly marked Suitable for Use with Outdoor

Appliances. Never use an indoor extension cord outdoors; it could

result in an electric shock or become a fire hazard.

• Use as short an extension cord as possible.

• Do not use multiple extension cords.

• Make sure that when in operation, the extension cord plug and the

heater cord plug connections are free and clear of water. This could

cause an electric shock or fire.

• Make sure the vehicle is parked in a clean area, clear of combustibles.

• Make sure the heater, heater cord and extension cord are firmly

connected.

• Check for heat anywhere in the electrical hookup once the system has

been operating for approximately 30 minutes.

• Make sure the system is unplugged and properly stowed before driving

your vehicle. Make sure the protective cover seals the prongs of the

block heater cord plug when not in use.

• Make sure the heater system is checked for proper operation before

winter.

Using the Engine Block Heater

Make sure the receptacle terminals are clean and dry prior to use. Clean

them with a dry cloth, if necessary.

The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours of energy per hour of use. The

system does not have a thermostat. It will achieve maximum temperature

after approximately three hours of operation. If you use the heater longer

than three hours, this will not improve system performance and will use

unnecessary electricity.
