Unvented Liquid Propane Fired Room Heater
DANGER
: Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to
death.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the
flu, with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you have
these signs, the heater may not be working properly.
Get fresh air at once! Have heater serviced. Some
people are more affected by carbon monoxide than oth
-
ers. These include pregnant women, persons with heart
or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence of
alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
Propane/LP Gas:
Propoane/LP gas is odorless. An odor making agent is
added to propane/LP gas. The odor helps you detect
a Propane/LP gas leak. However the odor added to
propane/LP gas may be present even though no odor
exists. Make certain you read and understand all warn
-
ings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your guide to
safe and proper operation of this heater.

PRECAUTIONS:
1. MHVFBI10LPT may be installed in a bedroom, but
not a bathroom, or any place where a strong wind
would shut down the appliance.
2. This heater needs outside ventilation air to run
properly. The Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) safety
shutoff system shuts down the heater if not enough
fresh air is available. See
Fresh Air for Combustion
and Ventilation
, page 3.
3. Keep all air openings in heater clear, free of debris
or any blockage. This will insure that enough air for
proper combustion enters the heater.

•
Where flammable liquids or vapors are used or stored
•
During dusty conditions.

Immediately call a qualified service technician to in
-
spect the room heater and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been
