liquids. 

22.  The front of the fireplace gives off high temperatures that could ignite combustible material which is kept close to the front of 

the unit. 

23.  Ensure that power to the Fireplace is turned off before servicing. 
24.  Do not operate this Fireplace without the glass front or with a broken glass. 
25.  Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to the
