This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the  
other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to  
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in  
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified  
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.  
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always  
be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to  
persons, including the following:  
To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug from  
outlet.  
Read all instructions before using this heater.  
This heater is hot when in use. To avoid burns, do not let bare skin  
touch hot surfaces. Use handles when moving this heater. Keep  
combustible materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers,  
clothes, and curtains at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the  
heater and keep them away from the sides and rear.  
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including  
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or  
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given  
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a  
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised  
to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Extreme caution  
is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or invalids  
and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.  
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or  
exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock or fire, or  
damage the heater.  
To prevent a possible fire, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any  
manner. Do not use on soft surfaces, like a bed, where openings  
may become blocked.  
A heater has hot and arcing or sparking parts inside. Do not use  
it in areas where gasoline, paint, or flammable liquids are used or  
stored.  
Use this heater only as described in this manual. Any other use not  
recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock,  
or injury to persons.

Ordinary heaters provide only localized heat. Heat  
immediately rises to the ceiling, resulting in cold and hot  
spots in the room. Vornados unique Vortex Action delivers  
continuous, uniform heat surrounding everyone in the

Using your Vornado Heater is easy. Just follow these simple steps.  
1. Position your heater so the vortex beam of warm air is directed  
across the room, unobstructed. Position it in a location that  
is representative of the room temperature. Avoid areas of  
temperature extremes such as cold drafts and heat registers. Please  
refer to IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS at the beginning of this  
owners guide.

How To Use  
Advanced Safety Features  
Tight Grill Spirals  
Resetting Your Vornado Heater  
Resists curious fingers.  
Your Vornado Heater has a multi-level safety shut-off system  
designed to prevent overheating. Overheating may occur when  
the inlets or outlet are blocked, a foreign object prevents the  
blade from turning, or the appliance tips over. If this happens,  
the safety shut-off system will cut power to the heat element  
and you will need to manually reset the heater.  
Cool Touch Case  
Safe to touch, even on high heat setting.  
1. Set the Power switch to Off and unplug the unit.  
2. Remove any obstructions.  
3. Wait 510 minutes, allowing the unit to cool down.  
4. Plug in the unit and place in desired position.  
5. Set the Power switch to On. Your Vornado Heater should now  
function normally.  
Automatic Safety Shut Off System  
If airflow becomes blocked and overheating occurs,  
power to the heating element and fan is shut off.  
Note: If the safety shut-off system repeatedly shuts off your  
heater or if it will not reset after following the above procedure,  
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISASSEMBLE THE UNIT. Call Vornado  
Consumer Services Department toll-free at 1-800-234-0604.  
Tip-Over Switch Protection  
If tipped more than 10 degrees in any direction, heat  
and fan functions immediately shut down.  
Ideal 120°F Exit Air Temperature  
Warm enough to heat an entire room.

Cleaning and Storage  
Your heater has no user serviceable parts. Do not disassemble the  
unit. This will void your warranty. If service is required, return your  
heater to Vornado (see WARRANTY for instructions).  
The motor is permanently lubricated and requires no oiling.  
Operating Tips  
In smaller areas, you might prefer to set the unit in LOW mode. A  
vortex beam of air will gently keep the air circulating in the room  
for even, uniform heating.  
How to Clean  
In larger spaces, you might prefer to set the unit in HIGH mode. A  
vortex beam of air will gently keep the air circulating in the room  
for even, uniform heating.  
To use the VTH as a personal fan, set the Fan mode to High and  
Thermostat to “1” position.  
The VTH, like any other 1500-watt electric heater, draws up to 12.5  
amps of electric current. If using your VTH on HIGH 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  
circuit as your heater.  
Run your heater in LOW mode.  
Because your heater moves a substantial  
amount of air, it will need regular cleaning.  
To clean follow these simple instructions:  
1. Unplug the unit.  
Note: Do not use gasoline, thinners, sol-  
vents or other chemicals for cleaning.  
View how to clean your  
Vornado heater on your  
mobile device.  
2. Use the brush attachment on your  
household vacuum cleaner to vacuum  
any accumulated dust off the Front Grill and Air Inlets. Wipe down  
the entire surface with a soft cloth.  
Have your electrician add an additional circuit to your homes  
electrical system.  
Note: Vacuuming the outside of the heater is recommended on a  
bi-weekly basis. You may also blow the heater out with high pressured  
air. This can be purchased from your local hardware store.  
When the room temperature is higher than the set temperature it  
is normal and correct to have little to no heat coming out of the  
VTH. When the unit is first turned on there is a slight delay before  
heat will start to be produced.  
ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING THIS AND/OR  
ANY ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE.  
Do not use more than one heater at a time.  
Never ignore or take lightly the signs of an electrical problem, such  
as:  
Storage  
During the off-season or after extended periods of non-use, you may  
choose to store your heater. To ensure long life of the product, it is  
recommended to store your heater by following these instructions:  
1. Unplug power cord and bundle loosely.  
Warm outlet cover plates  
2. Thoroughly clean your heater (see instructions above).  
3. Cover, or place back in retail carton if available. This will prevent  
the unit from accumulating dust overtime.  
Sparking at outlet when plugging in or during operation  
Light flickering or dimming (indicates a shared circuit or  
problem)  
4. Store unit in a cool and dry location.  
Investigate the cause of these before continuing to use the heater.
