IMPORTANT:

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

fireplace. Improper use of this fireplace can cause serious injury or death from burns, fire, explosion, electrical shock, 
and carbon monoxide poisoning. 
 
Only a qualified installer, service agent, or local gas supplier may install and service this product. 
 

 

WARNING:

  

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other 

appliance. 

 

 

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING:  

Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu with headaches, 

dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs, the fireplace may not be working properly. Get fresh air immediately! 
Have fireplace serviced. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant 
women, people with heart or lung disease, people who are anemic, those under the influence of alcohol, and those 
living in high altitudes. 

 

 

WARNING:  

Any change to this fireplace or its controls can be dangerous.

 

 

 WARNING: 

Do not allow fans to blow directly into fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns.

 

 

 WARNING:  

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

firebox.

 

 

Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies. Do not 
place clothing or other flammable material on or near the appliance. Never place any objects in the fireplace. 
Fireplace becomes very hot when running fireplace. Keep children and adults away from hot surfaces to avoid burns 
or clothing ignition. Fireplace will remain hot for a time after shutdown. Allow surfaces to cool before touching. 
Carefully supervise young children when they are in the room with the firebox. 

 

You must operate this fireplace with the fireplace screen and hood if provided, in place. Make sure these parts are in 
place and screens are closed before running firebox. The supplied hood must not be modified or replaced with a hood 
that may be provided with an unvented room heater (log set) selected. 
 
 
 
 

COMBUSTION AND MAKE-UP AIR

 

 
Follow the information concerning provisions for adequate combustion and vent located in the unvented room heater’s
