5.2 ABOUT YOUR NEW ROCCO HE ROOM HEATER

highly developed fuel bed which gives the realism of a loose log layout
combined with realistic flames and glow. The use of durable hard ceramic material
in the construction of the fuelbed components ensures long and trouble free
operation. When first using the new fire a slight smell may be noticed. This is due
to small deposits of oil on the firebox, but will soon disappear. Please take the
time to fully read these instructions as you will then be able to obtain the most
effective and safe operation of your fire.
