WARNING

• 

Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other accessory not approved for use with this 

appliance.

• 

This appliance must not be connected to a chimney fl ue pipe serving a separate solid fuel burning 

appliance.

• 

Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed service technician 

to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has 

been under water.

• 

Do not operate the appliance with the glass door removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the glass 

should be done by a licensed or qualifi ed service person, if equipped.

• 

Do not strike or slam shut the appliance glass door, if equipped.

• 

Only doors / optional fronts certifi ed with the appliance are to be installed on the appliance.

• 

Keep the packaging material out of reach of children and dispose of the material in a safe manner. As 

with all plastic bags, these are not toys and should be kept away from children and infants.

• 

Carbon or soot should not occur in a vent free appliance as it can distribute into the living area of your 

home. If you notice any signs of carbon or soot, immediately turn off your appliance and arrange to have 

it serviced by a qualifi ed technician before operating it again.

• 

If equipped, the screen must be in place (closed) when the appliance is in operation. 

• 

When equipped with pressure relief doors, they must be kept closed while the appliance is operating 

to prevent exhaust fumes containing carbon monoxide, from entering into the home. Temperatures of 

the exhaust escaping through these openings can also cause the surrounding combustible materials to 

overheat and catch fi re.

• 

Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to death; early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the 

fl u, with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the appliance may not be working 

properly. Get fresh air at once! Have appliance serviced. Some people; pregnant women, persons with 

heart or lung disease, anemia, those under the infl uence of alcohol, those at high altitudes are more 

affected by carbon monoxide than others. Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean 

may result in sooting and property damage. 

• 

As with any combustion appliance, we recommend having your appliance regularly inspected and 

serviced as well as having a Carbon Monoxide Detector installed in the same area to defend you and 

your family against Carbon Monoxide (not applicable for outdoor appliances).

• 

Ensure clearances to combustibles are maintained when building a mantel or shelves above the 

appliance. Elevated temperatures on the wall or in the air above the appliance can cause melting, 

discolouration or damage to decorations, a TV or other electronic components.

• 

For appliances equipped with a safety barrier; if the barrier becomes damaged, the barrier 
shall be replaced with the manufacturer’s barrier for this appliance.

• 

Installation and repair should be done by a qualifi ed service person. It is imperative that control 
compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.

• 

For outdoor products only: this appliance must not be installed indoors or within any structure that 

prevents or inhibits the exhaust gases from dissipating in the outside atmosphere.

• 

If applicable, the millivolt version of this appliance uses and requires a fast acting thermocouple. Replace 

only with a fast acting thermocouple supplied by Wolf Steel Ltd.

!

WARNING 

!

Disconnect the appliance main gas valve/control 

from the supply piping when pressure testing that 

system at pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

Isolate the appliance with it’s shut off valve during 

any pressure testing of the supply piping at 

pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

FIRE RISK HAZARD / DELAYED IGNITION 

High supply pressure will damage the valve / controls.

Add California Prop 65 warning
