IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

This stove is a vented product. This stove must be properly 
installed by a qualified service person. The glass door must be 
properly seated and sealed. If this unit is not properly installed 
by a qualified service person with glass door properly seated 
and sealed, combustion leakage can occur. 

CARBON  MONOXIDE  POISONING:

 

Early  signs  of 

carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu with head-
aches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the 
stove may not have been installed properly. Get fresh air at 
once! Have the stove inspected and serviced by a qualified 
service  person.  Some  people  are  more  affected  by  carbon 
monoxide than others. These include pregnant women, people 
with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence 
of alcohol, and those at high altitudes. 
Propane/LP gas and natural gas are both odorless. An odor-
making agent is added to each of these gases. The odor helps 
you detect a gas leak. However, the odor added to these gases 
can fade. Gas may be present even though no odor exists.
Make  certain  you  read  and  understand  all  warnings.  Keep 
this manual for reference. It is your guide to safe and proper 
operation of this stove.
1.  This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indi-

cated on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible 
for use with other gases unless a certified kit is used. 

2.  For propane/LP stove, do not place propane/LP supply 

tank(s) inside any structure. Locate propane/LP supply 
tank(s) outdoors. To prevent performance problems, do not 
use propane/LP fuel tank of less than 100 gal. capacity. 

3.  If you smell gas
        •  shut off gas supply.
        •  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.

Continued on page 4

• Read this owner’s manual carefully and completely before trying to assemble, operate, 

or service this stove. 

• Any change to this stove or its controls can be dangerous.
• Improper installation or use of this stove can cause serious injury or death from fire, 

burns, explosions, electrical shock and carbon monoxide poisoning.
