CAUTIONS
- SAFETY GUIDE -
WARNING
!!
RISK OF EXPLOSION / RISK OF FIRE
!
NEVER
use any fuel other than water-clear 1-K
kerosene or red dyed 1-K kerosene.
!
NEVER
use fuel such as gasoline, benzene, paint
thinners or other oil compounds in this heater.
!
NEVER
refill heater fuel tank when heater is operating
or still hot.
!
NEVER
use heater in areas where flammable vapors
or gases may be present.
!
NEVER
fill heater fuel tank in living space; fill tank
outdoors.
!
NEVER
store or transport kerosene in other than a
metal or plastic container that is (1)
acceptable for kerosene, (2) non-red in color,
and (3) clearly marked “Kerosene”. NEVER
store kerosene in the living space; kerosene
should be stored in a well ventilated place
outside the living area.
!
The unit is EXTREMELY HOT while in operation.
Due to high surface temperatures, keep children,
clothing, furniture, and other combustible objects at
least 36 away from top and front area.
!
RISK OF INDOOR AIR POLLUTION
USE HEATER ONLY IN WELL VENTILATED
AREAS. People with breathing problems should consult a
physician before using the heater. In a house of typical
construction, that is, one that is not of unusually tight
construction due to heavy insulation and tight seals
against air infiltration, an adequate supply of air for
combustion and ventilation is provided through infiltration;
however, if the heater is used in a small room where less
than 200 cubic feet (5.7 m of air space is provided for each
1,000 BTU per hour of heater rating (considering the
maximum burner adjustment), the door(s) to adjacent
room(s) should be kept open or the window to the outside
should be opened at least 1 inch (25.4 mm) to guard
against potential buildup of indoor air pollution. DO NOT
use the heater in a bathroom or any other small room with
the door closed.
!
NEVER use heater to heat or boil water or use as a
cooking appliance.
WARNING
!!
FAILURE TO INSTALL, MAINTAIN, AND/OR
OPERATE THIS KEROSENE HEATER ACCORDING
TO MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS MAY
RESULT IN CONDITIONS WHICH CAN PRODUCE
BODILY INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT instructions
appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all
possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must
be understood that common sense, caution, and
carefulness are factors which cannot be built into this
heater. These factors must be supplied by the person(s)
installing, maintaining, or operating the kerosene heater.
Always contact your dealer, distributor, service agent,
or the manufacturer on any problems or conditions
you do not understand.
!
NEVER leave heater operating if you intend to leave for
any period of time. Always make sure to turn heater off
and inspect to insure that it is completely extinguished
prior to going to bed.
!
NEVER
leave heater unattended.
!
NEVER
use as a source of heat for drying objects.
!
NEVER
place objects on the top plate.
WARNING
!!
RISK OF BURNS
!
NEVER
operate the heater without the guard or grill
completely attached.
IF POOR QUALITY KEROSENE is used a rapid
accumulation of carbon and tar is likely. This may cause
a strong odor and will destroy the wick. Additional heater
damage may occur as the wick becomes more difficult to
adjust. The use of poor quality fuel could also make the
wick very hard to extinguish. Always make sure the fire is
out. (See page 12, Extinguishing the Heater.)
ADJUSTMENT OF ROOM TEMPERATURE cannot be
changed by adjusting the heater. A Kerosene heater is
either on or off. There is no temperature adjustment. If
heater output is reduced by lowering the wick in any way,
improper combustion will occur producing odors and an
accumulation of tar and carbon. If your room becomes
too hot, open a door or a window or turn off the heater.
