 WARNING

 

California Proposition 65
Combustion by-products produced when using

 WARNING

 

                                BURN HAZARD
• Never leave heater unattended when hot or in use.
• Keep out of reach of children.

 WARNING

 

• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas
is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is
normally added to help detect leaks and can be 
described as a “rotten egg” smell. The odorant can 
fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable
by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane
will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by 
ignition sources including matches, lighters, sparks or
open flames of any kind many feet away from the 
original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor 
withdrawal.
• Store or use propane gas in compliance with local 
ordinances and codes or with ANS/NFPA 58. Turn off 
propane when not in use.

 WARNING

 

• Alert children and adults to the hazards of high surface 
temperatures. Stay away from these surfaces to avoid 
burning skin or igniting clothing.
• Carefully supervise young children when in the vicinity
of the heater.
• Do not hang clothing or any other flammable materials
from the heater, or place on or near the heater.
• Replace any guard or protective device removed for
servicing the appliance prior to placing back in service.
• Installation and repair should be done by a qualified
service person. The heater should be inspected
before use and annually by a qualified service person.
More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary.
It is imperative that the control compartment, burners,
and circulating air passageway of the appliance be
kept clean.
