This is a vented product. It must be properly installed by a qualified service person. The glass door must be properly
seated and sealed. If this appliance is not properly installed by a qualified service person with glass door properly
seated and sealed, combustion leakage can occur. CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING: Early signs of carbon
monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, it may
not have been installed properly. Get fresh air at once! Have it inspected and serviced by a qualified service
person. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant women,
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence 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.
