This is an unvented gas-fired heater. It uses air (oxygen)
from the room in which it is installed. Provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air must be provided.
Keep room area clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater. They
are not intended to be a primary heating appliance. Water
vapor produced by an unvented heater can create moisture
problems in a home when operated for extended periods
of time.
During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain oils,
films or bonding agents. These chemicals are not harmful but
may produce annoying smoke and smells as they are burned
off during the initial operation of the appliance; possibly
causing headaches or eye or lung irritation. This is a normal
and temporary occurrence.
The initial break-in operation should last 2-3 hours with the
burner at the highest setting. Provide maximum ventilation
by opening windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate. Any
odors remaining after this initial break-in period will be slight
and will disappear with continued use.
This appliance must not be used with glass doors in the
closed position. This can lead to pilot outages and severe
sooting outside the fireplace.
Do not use this room heater if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the
room heater and replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
wArNING: This appliance is equipped for (natural or
propane) gas. Field conversion is not permitted.

High Altitude
When installing this unit at an elevation above 2,000 feet (in
the United States), it may be necessary to decrease the input
rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size.
Generally, input should be reduced 4 percent for each 1,000
feet above sea level. However, if the heating value of the gas
has been reduced, this general rule may not apply. Check
with local gas utility for proper orifice size identification.
