installed, a house fire may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation instructions. Contact local building, fire
officials or authority having jurisdiction about restrictions,installation inspection and permits requirements in your area.
2) CAUTION: Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or
