WARNINGS!
Although Japidi Energy IR Heaters are very safe to use, read these instructions before use. Turn
power off before servicing heater or replacing any parts. All electrical work should be done
according to appropriate electrical codes.
1. Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury;
2. If you can’t find the answer, consult our website at www.japidi.com;
3. Do not expose your Japidi Energy Heater to rain or wet conditions. Water entering the
heater will increase the risk of electric shock;
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the heater;
5. When using the heater outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use;
6. Do not cover or obstruct the heater while it is in use;
7. The electrical connections to the heater must be earthed;
8. Avoid the use of the Japidi Energy Infrared Heater by children or incapacitated persons;
9. Disconnect or unplug the unit during installation, repairs or replacement of the element;
10. Do not touch the heater body while the unit is burning. To avoid the risk of burns, always
make sure the element and the heater body is cool;
11. Do not touch the halogen element with bare hands. If the element is unintentionally
touched, remove the finger marks with a soft cloth and methylated spirits or alcohol. Failure
to do so results in permanent marks burning into the element causing premature element
failure. If you do need to hold or remove the element, always use a soft and clean cloth;
12. Do not insert any object through the front grid or opening of the heater;
13. Do not install more heaters on your electric circuit then allowed by your local electrical
regulations. Prior to installation you must check requirements with regards to available
voltage and current (amp). A 15 Amp circuit breaker at 110/120V can take 1x 1500W
heater or 3 x 500W heaters. For a 240V circuit you can use 1x 3000W heater per 15A plug.
You can put more heaters on different plugs. If not sure, consult a qualified electrician;
14. Always switch off your heater when leaving the room or area;
15. Do not stare into the element when your heater is on. Prolonged staring at the element will
cause damage to your eyes (compared with staring into any light bulb or the sun);
16. Keep any flammable and/or combustible materials such as wooden furniture, paper,
curtains, or clothes at least 3ft away from the front of heater and 1ft from the side, top and
rear;
17. CAUTION: Heater can be used outside and in damp conditions, but must be sheltered from
rain, snow or any water. The Japidi Energy Infrared Halogen Heater is NOT waterproof.

3. Use swivel bracket provided with heater and use approved screws and plugs for correct
application;
4. When heater is aimed at the right angle fasten the bolts on side of heater and bracket to
keep heater in angled position;
5. CAUTION: For residential and public heating: mount heater at 2.4m or 8ft above the floor
surface or grade. (Figures 2 and 3)
(Figure 2)
(Figure 3)
6. (For Industrial and special applications: heater positioning will depend on application and
design requirements);
7. For wall mounting position heater at 45 to 55 degree angle to the floor (see figure 2);
8. For ceiling mounting aim heater straight down to floor (see figure 3);
9. Never install the heater directly at flammable surface within surface mounting distance;
10. Do not use the heater in non-ventilated and dusty environment to avoid damage to the
element;
11. The heater should be installed in a place sheltered from the rain;
12. Only use the bracket supplied with the heater to fit to the surface;
13. Always make sure your electrical circuit complies with local regulations and heater is
connected to electrical wiring with suitable circuit breakers;
14. For Factories, Halls or larger areas, multiple heaters can be installed in parallel wiring
connections;
15. Japidi heaters are fully dimmable and can be integrated in any smart wiring solution;
HEATER CAN BE INSTALLED ON MOVABLE STAND – KEEP SAME
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AS ABOVE
