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 room in a warm, comfortable temperature.

Please visually inspect all internal and external components before connecting to electric current. If any damage  
is found, DO NOT USE THIS UNIT and contact Vornado Air LLC at 1-800-234-0604.  
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:  
Read all instructions before using this 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.  
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.  
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.  
Extreme caution is necessary when any heater is used by or near children or  
invalids and whenever the heater is left operating and unattended.  
Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an  
extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip). Operate this heater  
only in its upright position.  
Always unplug heater when not in use.  
Do not operate any heater with a damaged cord or plug or after the heater  
malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Discard heater, or  
return to authorized service facility for examination and/or repair.  
Do not operate this heater on an elevated surface such as a shelf or desktop. Use  
only while placed on the floor.  
Do not use outdoors.  
This heater is equipped with a thermal safety shut-off system, designed to turn off  
the heater when an internal overheating condition is detected (see How To Use  
“RESETTING YOUR VORNADO HEATER,” to determine how to check and reset  
the heater).  
This heater is not intended for use in bathrooms, laundry areas and similar indoor  
locations. Never locate heater where it may fall into a bathtub or other  
water container.  
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.  
Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or  
similar coverings. Do not route cord under furniture or appliances. Arrange cord  
away from traffic area and where it will not be tripped over.  
To disconnect heater, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.  
Do not operate this product with any electronic speed-control device on the  
same circuit.  
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.  
Do not use heater to dry human or animal hair/fur or articles of clothing.

HOw TO uSE  
caRE & MainTEnancE  
Using your Vornado Heater is easy. Just follow these simple steps.  
Your heater has no user serviceable parts. Do not disassemble the  
unit – it will void your warranty. If service is required, return your  
heater to Vornado (see Warranty section).  
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. The unique side-  
angled air inlets allow the heater to be placed closer to walls  
than possible with most ordinary heaters (but do not place close  
to combustibles). Avoid areas of temperature extremes such  
as cold drafts and heat registers. Please refer to IMPORTANT  
INSTRUCTIONS at the beginning of this owners guide.  
The motor is permanently lubricated and requires no oiling.  
Because your heater moves a substantial amount of air, it will  
require regular cleaning. Be sure to unplug the unit prior to any  
cleaning activity.  
Use a vacuum cleaner with the brush attachment to clean any  
accumulated dust on the front grill and the side air inlets. During  
the off-season or extended periods of non-use, store your heater.  
Unplug the unit and bundle the cord. Save the plastic bag the  
heater was shipped in so you can cover the unit and minimize  
settling dust.  
2. Plug the power cord into a standard wall outlet.  
3. Press the POWER button.  
4. Then press the MODE button to select LO (low heat), HI (high  
heat), or FA (fan only).  
5.  
Press the WARMER button to raise the set temperature or  
COOLER to lower the set temperature. The unit will display the set  
temperature when the SET TEMP light is lit.  
6. Your DVTH will generate only the heat required to obtain and  
maintain the set temperature.

RESETTing yOuR VORnaDO HEaTER  
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.

set temperature.

TIGHT GRILL SPIRALS  
Resists curious fingers.  
If unit has been unplugged, start the unit following the start-up  
instruction (see How To Use). If unit has not been unplugged, just press  
the POWER button and the unit will continue from the last used setting  
before it was turned off.  
To use your DVTH as a fan set the MODE to FA (fan only).  
Your Vornado DVTH, like other 1,500-Watt electric heaters, draws up to  
12.5 Amps of electric current. If using your DVTH on HI (high heat)  
mode causes your home circuit breaker to fuse or trip, we offer the  
following suggestions:  
COOL TOUCH CASE  
Safe to touch, even on high heat setting.  
Try turning off other electrical appliances that run on the same circuit  
as your heater.  
AUTOMATIC SAFETY SHUT OFF SYSTEM  
If airflow becomes blocked, power to the heating  
element is shut off to prevent overheating.  
Run your heater on the LO (low heat) mode.  
Have your electrician add some additional circuits to your home  
electrical system.  
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 DVTH.  
When the unit is first turned on there is a slight delay before heat will  
start to be produced.  
TIP-OVER PROTECTION  
If tipped over, power to the heating element and fan  
motor is reduced to prevent overheating.  
ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING THIS AND/OR
