 CAUTION: This heater creates warm air currents.

These currents move heat to wall surfaces next to
heater. Installing heater next to vinyl or cloth wall
coverings or operating heater where impurities (such
as, but not limited to, tobacco smoke, aromatic
candles, cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene lamps, etc.)
in the air exist, may discolor walls or cause odors.

INSTALLATION

Continued

CHECK GAS TYPE

Use the correct gas type (natural or propane/LP) for your unit. If
your gas supply is not correct, do not install heater. Call dealer where
you bought fireplace for proper type fireplace.

IMPORTANT:

 Vent-free heaters add moisture to the air. Although

this is beneficial, installing heater in rooms without enough venti-
lation air may cause mildew to form from too much moisture. See
Air for Combustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.
