NOTE: WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS BE INSTALLED IN THE

If smoke detectors have been previously installed, you may notice that they are operating more frequently. This may be due
to curing of stove paint or fumes caused by accidentally leaving the fi re door open. Do not disconnect the detectors.
