IMpoRtaNt SaFEty INFoRMatIoN

This  fireplace  is  a  vented  product. This  fireplace  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 
headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these 
signs, the fireplace may not have been installed properly. 
Get fresh air at once! Have the fireplace 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 dis-
ease 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 fireplace.

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