heated space. Even though this heater operates very close to 100
percent combustion efficiency, it still produces small amounts of
carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide (called CO) is toxic. CO can
build up in a heated space and failure to provide adequate ventila
tion could result in death. The symptoms of inadequate ventilation

section.
Forced Air means that a blower or fan pushes the air through the
heater. Proper combustion depends upon this air flow; therefore,
the heater must not be revised, modified or operated with parts
removed or missing. Likewise, safety systems must not be circum
vented or modified in order to operate the heater.
When the heater is to be operated in the presence of other people
the user is responsible for properly acquainting those present

movement.
7. Caution: Due to the high surface and exhaust temperatures,
adults and children must observe clearances to avoid burns
or clothing ignition. Do Not Touch. Keep children, clothing,
and combustible away.
