PRIOR TO FIRST FIRE:  Remove all labels from glass.  Clean plated surfaces with a glass cleanser and soft 

cloth to prevent staining from fingerprint oils.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES:

  1) When installing your stove, particular attention should be paid to fire protection.  If this room heater is not properly 

installed, a house fire may result.  To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation instructions.  Contact local build

-

ing or fire officials or authority having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspection and permit requirements 

in your area.

  2) CAUTION:  Never use gasoline or gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to 

start or “freshen up” a fire in this heater.  Keep all such liquids well away from heater while it is in use.

  3) During operation, if any part of the stove starts to glow, the stove is in an overfired condition.  Close the air controls 

completely until the glowing has stopped. 

 OVERFIRING VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY!

  4) Cool ashes should be disposed of carefully, using a metal container.

  5) Do not burn wet or green wood.  Store wood in a dry location.

  6) 

DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL. 

 Do 

not burn treated wood, or wood with salt (driftwood, etc.).  Burning materials other than wood (including charcoal) 

under adverse conditions may generate carbon monoxide in the home, resulting in illness or possible death.

  7) Do not permit creosote or soot to accumulate excessively in the chimney or inside the firebox.

  8) Check your chimney system thoroughly when installing into an existing metal or masonry chimney.  Seek profes

-

15) For further information refer to NFPA 211 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B365 (Canada).

16) Do not operate without fully assembling all components.  Burning your stove without the legs attached (if supplied 

with unit) will void your warranty, and could present a serious safety hazard
