Note: When first running the heater there may 

be an odor. This is normal as the heater has a 

surface coating on the internal parts. For the 

first several hours of operation, the coating 

reacts with the internal parts to permanently 

protect them. The odor is safe; if you are 

sensitive to the odor, it is recommended 

to run the heater in a well-ventilated area until 

the odor dissipates.

Warning: This is an unvented, electric 

appliance. DO NOT attempt to burn wood or 

manufactured firelogs in or on this appliance 

or grate.
