INTRODUCTION
The
Millivolt
appliances have a millivolt gas
control valve with piezo ignition system. If any
optional accessories that will require electrical
power are to be installed, the electrical power
must be provided at the time of appliance
installation.
Children and adults should be alerted to the
hazards of high surface temperature and
should stay away to avoid burns or clothing
ignition.
Les enfants et les adultes devraient être infor-
més des dangers que posent les températures
de surface élevées et se tenir à distance afin
d’éviter des brûlures ou que leurs vêtements
ne s’enflamment.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER OR MODIFY
THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE APPLIANCE OR
ITS COMPONENTS. ANY MODIFICATION OR
ALTERATION MAY VOID THE WARRANTY, CER-
TIFICATION AND LISTINGS OF THIS UNIT.
WARNING
Young children should be care-
fully supervised when they are
in the same room as the appli-
ance. Toddlers, young children
and others may be susceptible
to accidental contact burns. A
physical barrier is recommended
if there are at risk individuals in
the house. To restrict access to
a fireplace or stove, install an
adjustable safety gate to keep
toddlers, young children and
other at risk individuals out of
the room and away from hot
surfaces.
AVERTISSEMENT
Les jeunes enfants devraient être
surveillés étroitement lorsqu’ils
se trouvent dans la même pièce
que l’appareil. Les tout petits,
les jeunes enfants ou les adultes
peuvent subir des brûlures s’ils
viennent en contact avec la sur-
face chaude. Il est recommandé
d’installer une barrière physique
si des personnes à risques habi-
tent la maison. Pour empêcher
l’accès à un foyer ou à un poêle,
installez une barrière de sécu-
rité; cette mesure empêchera les
tout petits, les jeunes enfants et
toute autre personne à risque
d’avoir accès à la pièce et aux
surfaces chaudes.
