•
This fireplace must be installed and serviced by your dealer or
a qualified service technician. Other than cleaning the glass
and replacing the light bulbs, there are no user-serviceable
components.
•
Keep the area around the fireplace clean and free of debris. This
fireplace requires an unimpeded flow of air to circulate warm air. Do
not place objects on or around the fireplace that may restrict air flow.
•
Keep the area around the fireplace free of combustible materials –
including drapery, upholstered furniture, paper, boxes, and clothing.
Never hang stockings or cards above the fireplace.

This fireplace may become hot enough to burn skin and ignite clothing
after prolonged contact. To prevent injury, alert people in your home –
especially children – to the hazards of high surface temperatures and
warn them to stay away from the fireplace.
•
Supervise children whenever the fireplace is hot. Young children
and others may be susceptible to accidental contract burns. Have
your dealer install a physical barrier if there are at-risk individuals
in your home. To restrict access to a fireplace or stove, install an
adjustable safety gate to keep toddlers, young children, and other
at-risk individuals out of the room and away from hot surfaces.
•
The vent cap, located on the outside of your home, will also become
very hot. Alert everyone, adults and children, to stay clear and avoid
touching the vent cap. Keep the area around the vent cap clear of
combustibles, including shrubs and trees.
