When used without adequate combustion and ventilation air,
heater may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless, poi-
sonous gas.
Do not install heater until all necessary provisions are
made for combustion and ventilation air. Consult the writ-
ten instructions provided with the heater for information
concerning combustion and ventilation air. In the absence
of instructions, refer to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFpA 54, Air for Combustion and Ventilation, or
applicable local codes.
This heater is equipped with a pILOT LIGHT SAFETy SyS-
TEM designed to turn off the heater if not enough fresh air
is available.
DO NOT TAMpER WITH pILOT LIGHT SAFETy
SySTEM!
If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air.
If heater keeps shutting off, have it serviced. Keep burner and
control compartment clean.
CARBON MONOXIDE pOISONING MAy LEAD TO
DEATH.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu,
with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs,
heater may not be working properly. Get fresh air at once!
Have heater serviced.
Some people — pregnant women, persons with heart or lung
disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol , those at
high altitudes — are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others.
The pilot light safety system senses the depletion of oxygen at its
location. If this heater is installed in a structure having a high
vertical dimension, the possibility exists that the oxygen supply
at the higher levels will be less than that at the heater. In this type
of application, a fan to circulate the structure air will minimize
this effect. The use of this fan will also improve the comfort level
in the structure. When a fan is used to circulate air, it should be
located so that the air flow is not directed at the burner.
WARNING
• An unvented room heater having an input rating of more than
6,000 Btu per hour shall not be installed in a bathroom
• An unvented room heater having an input rating of more than
10,000 Btu per hour shall not be installed in a bedroom or
bathroom.
• Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out
of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard of high
surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or
clothing ignition.
• Young children should be carefully supervised when they are
in the same room with the appliance.
• Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near
the appliance.
•
Installation and repair should be done by a qUALIFIED
SERVICE pERSON. This appliance should be inspected
before use and at least annually by a professional service
person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to
excessive lint from carpeting, bedding materials, etc. It
is imperative that control compartments, burners and
circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
• Do noT
use this room heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to
inspect the room heater and to replace any part of the control
system and any gas control which has been under water.
• You must operate heater with fireplace screen closed in place.
Do not close glass doors while operating heater.
• Do not place trash, logs or other articles on the log set during
operation.
• During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain oils,
films or bonding agents. These bonding agents are not harmful
but may produce annoying smoke and smells as they are
burned off during initial operation of the appliance. This is
a normal temporary occurrence. A window should be opened
during the initial bake out period.
• Correct installation of the ceramic fiber logs, proper
location of the heater and annual cleaning are necessary to
avoid potential problems with sooting. Sooting, resulting
from improper installation or operation, can settle on
surfaces outside the fireplace. See instructions for proper
installation.
• WARnInG: Do not allow fans to blow directly into
the fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame
patterns.
• WARnInG: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert
or other accessory not approved for use with this heater.
• WARnInG! This fireplace needs fresh air for ventilation to
run properly. This fireplace has an oDS (oxygen depletion
sensor) which will shut down the heater if adequate fresh
air is not available. See troubleshooting section in the
instructions.
• Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
• WARnInG: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s)
of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting and property
damage.
