fied service person.

IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s
manual carefully and completely
before trying to assemble, oper-
ate, or service this stove and burner
system. Improper use of this stove
and burner system can cause seri-
ous injury or death from burns,
fire, explosions, electrical shock,
and carbon monoxide poisoning.

 WARNING: Any change to

this stove or burner system or its
controls can be dangerous.

 WARNINGS

 DANGER: Carbon monoxide

poisoning may lead to death!

This stove with burner system is a vented
product. This stove with burner system will
not produce any gas leakage into your home
if properly installed. This stove with burner
system must be properly installed by a quali-
fied 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, gas leakage can occur.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:

 Early signs of

carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu,
with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you
have these signs, the stove with burner system
may not have been installed properly. Get
fresh air at once!
 Have stove with burner
system inspected and serviced by a qualified
service person. Some people are more af-
fected by carbon monoxide than others. These
include pregnant women, people with heart or
lung disease or anemia, those under the influ-
ence 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 stove and burner system.

10. Have venting system inspected annu-

ally by a qualified service person. If
needed, have venting system cleaned
or repaired. See Cleaning and Mainte-
nance
, page 28.

11. Keep the area around your stove clear

of combustible materials, gasoline,
and other flammable vapor and liq-
uids. Do not run burner system where
these are used or stored. Do not place
items such as clothing or decorations
on or around stove.

12. Do not use this stove to cook food or

burn paper or other objects.

13. Never place anything on top of stove.

14. Do not use any solid fuels (wood, coal,

paper, cardboard, etc.) in this stove. Use
only the gas type indicated on burner
system nameplate.

15. This appliance, when installed, must be

electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes or, in the absence of
local codes, with the National Electri-
cal Code, ANS/NFPA 70
, or the Cana-
dian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1
.

16. Do not obstruct the flow of combus-

tion and ventilation air in any way. Pro-
vide adequate clearances around air
openings into the combustion chamber
along with adequate accessibility clear-
ance for servicing and proper operation.

17. Do not install stove directly on carpet-

ing, vinyl tile, or any combustible ma-
terial other than wood. The stove must
set on a metal or wood panel extending
the full width and depth of the stove.

18. Do not use stove or burner if any part has

been exposed to or under water. Imme-
diately call a qualified service person to
arrange for replacement of the unit.

19. Do not operate burner system if any log

is broken.

20. Do not use a blower insert, heat ex-

changer insert, or other accessory not
approved for use with this stove.

21. Do not operate burner system with glass
