avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

: Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not 

avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.

NOTICE

: Addresses practices not related to personal injury.

•  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.

•  Due to high surface temperatures, keep children, clothing 

and furniture away.

• 

WARNING: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger 

insert or other accessory not approved for use with heater.

•  Installation and repair should be done by a

 qUALIFIED 

SERVICE PERSON. 

The 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.

• 

WARNING: ANY CHANGE TO THIS HEATER OR ITS 

CONTROLS CAN BE DANGEROUS. 

 

Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an 

appliance must be replaced prior to operating the heater.

•  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.

WARNING

When used without adequate combustion and ventilation 

air, heater may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odor-

less, poisonous gas. 

Do not install heater until all necessary provisions are 

made for combustion and ventilation air. Consult the 

written instructions provided with the heater for infor-

mation 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 

SySTEM 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 alco

-

hol, 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 hav-

ing 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.

THIS IS A HEATING APPLIANCE

DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITHOUT FRONT PANEL INSTALLED.
