  WARNING:  This  product 

contains  and/or  generates 

chemicals  known  to  the  State

-

tive harm.

IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s 

manual carefully and completely

-

proper use of this fireplace can 

cause  serious  injury  or  death 

from  burns,  fire,  explosions, 

electrical  shock  and  carbon 

monoxide poisoning.

 DANGER: Carbon monoxide 

poisoning may lead to death!

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:

 Early signs 

of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the 

flu, with headaches, dizziness or nausea. If 
you have these signs, the fireplace may not 
have been installed properly. 

Get fresh air at 

once!

 Have fireplace inspected and serviced 

by a qualified service person. Some people 

are more affected by carbon monoxide than 

others.  These  include  pregnant  women, 
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, 
those under the influence of alcohol and those 
at high altitudes.

Natural  Gas:

  Natural  gas  is  odorless. An 

odor-making agent is added to the gas. The 
odor helps you detect a gas leak. However, 
the odor added to the gas can fade. Gas may 
be present even though no odor exists.
Make  certain  you  read  and  understand  all 
warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It 
is your guide to safe and proper operation of 
this log set.
