OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING

WARNING: 

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury, or loss 

of life. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier. Keep burner and control 
compartment clean.

A)  This  appliance  has  a  pilot  which  must  be  lighted  by  hand. 

When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly.

B)  BEFORE  LIGHTING,  smell  all  around  the  appliance  area 

for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is 
heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

  •  Do not try to light any appliance.
  •  Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in 

your building.

  •  Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. 

Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

  •  If  you  cannot  reach  your  gas  supplier,  call  the  fire  depart-

ment.

C)  Use only your hands to push in or turn the gas control knob. 

Never use tools. If the knob will not push in or turn by hand, 
do not try to repair it; call a qualified service technician. Force 
or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D)  Do not use this appliance if it has been under water. Immedi-

ately call a qualified service technician to inspect the heater 
and  to  replace  any  part  of  the  control  system  and  any  gas 
control which has been under water.

NOTE:

  It  is  normal  for  the  new  heater  to  give  off  some  odor 

the first time it is lit. This is due to final paint curing and to any  
undetected  oil  remaining  from  the  manufacturing  process.  It  is 
recommended that you operate your new wall heater for at least 
two (2) hours the first time you use it.

ONCE THE UNIT IS IN OPERATION, CHECK ALL GAS 
CONNECTIONS  WITH  A  SOAPY  WATER  SOLUTION. 
CHECK  THE  TEST  POINT  PRESSURE;  IT  MUST  BE 
4"  W.C.  FOR  NATURAL  GAS  AND  10.0"  W.C.  FOR  LP 
GAS.
