Never block the air circulation grills, either the inlet or outlet. This will create overheating of the structure and a
possible fire hazard.
•
Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or “freshen up”
a fire in this fireplace. Keep all such liquids well away from the fireplace while it is in use.
•
Use only solid wood or processed solid fuel fire logs. Do not poke or stir the fire logs while they are burning. Use only
fire logs that have been evaluated and listed for use in a fireplace. Refer to the fire log warnings and caution markings on
the packaging prior to use. Do not burn coal.
•
Contain the fire behind the internal log retainer. Accidental spillage of burning fuel may occur when the door is opened
if fuel exists in front of the retainer.
•
Never load the fireplace with cardboard, paper or rapidly combustible material. This will cause overheating of the steel
structure and a possible fire hazard.
