We recommend that you do the followingfor a safe and correct operation:
•Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cordthat is product certified byUnderwriter’s Laboratory (UL) orCanadian Standards Association(CSA). This extension cord must besuitable for use outdoors, in coldtemperatures, and be clearly markedSuitable for Use with OutdoorAppliances. Do not use an indoorextension cord outdoors. This couldresult in an electric shock or become afire hazard.
•Use as short an extension cord aspossible.
•Do not use multiple extension cords.
•Make sure that when in operation, theextension cord plug and engine blockheater cord plug connections are freeand clear of water. This could cause anelectric shock or fire.
•If the engine block heater cord is underthe hood, do not remove the wiringfrom its original location. Do not closethe hood on the extension wiring.
•Park your vehicle in a clean area, clearof combustible materials.
•Firmly connect the engine block heatercord and the extension cord.
•Check the extension cord for heatanywhere when the system has beenoperating for approximately 30minutes.
•Unplug and properly stow the systembefore starting and driving your vehicle.The protective cover seals theterminals of the engine block heatercord plug when not in use.
•Check the engine block heater systemfor proper operation before winter.
HOW DOES THE ENGINE BLOCKHEATER WORK
The engine block heater warms the enginecoolant. This allows the climate controlsystem to quickly respond. The equipmentincludes a heater element installed in theengine block and a wire harness. You canconnect the system to a grounded220-240 volt AC electrical source.
Note: The engine block heater is mosteffective when outdoor temperatures arebelow 0°F (-18°C). We recommend the useof engine block heater to improve enginecold start performance.
USING THE ENGINE BLOCKHEATER
Make sure the receptacle terminals areclean and dry prior to use. Clean them witha dry cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hoursof energy per hour of use. The system doesnot have a thermostat. It achievesmaximum temperature afterapproximately three hours of operation.Using the engine block heater longer thanthree hours does not improve systemperformance and unnecessarily useselectricity.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
STOPPING THE ENGINE WHENYOUR VEHICLE IS STATIONARY
1.Shift into park (P).
2.Apply the parking brake.
3.Wait until the engine reaches idlespeed.
