SAFETY INFORMATION

 DANGER

 

• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This heater is a combustion appliance. All 
combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide 
(CO) during the combustion process. This product is 
designed to produce extremely minute, non-hazardous
amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance 
with all warnings and instructions. Do not block air 
flow into or out of the heater.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like
symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue
and possibly death. You can't see it and you can't 
smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symptoms are 
present during operation of this product get fresh air 
immediately!
• For outdoor use only.
• Never use inside house, or other unventilated or
enclosed areas.
• This heater consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in
unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering
your life.
