SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: This product contains and/or generates chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm.

IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s manual carefully and completely before trying to assemble, operate or service this ﬁreplace. Improper use of this ﬁreplace can cause serious injury or death from burns, ﬁre, explosions, electrical shock and carbon monoxide poisoning.

DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to death!

This ﬁreplace must be installed by a qualiﬁed (certiﬁed or licensed) service person. It has a sealed gas combustion chamber that uses a coaxial pipe (pipe within a pipe and having the same center) venting system. It brings in fresh air for combustion through the outer pipe and combustion gases are exhausted through the inner pipe. If the glass door assembly and venting pipe are not properly seated, connected and sealed, carbon monoxide leakage (spillage) can occur.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the ﬂu, with headaches, dizziness or nausea. If you have these signs, the ﬁreplace may not have been installed properly. Get fresh air at once! Have ﬁreplace inspected and ser- viced by a qualiﬁed service person. Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the inﬂu- ence of alcohol and those at high altitudes.

Natural and Propane/LP Gas: Natural and propane/LP gases are odorless. An odor-making agent is added to the gas. The odor helps you detect a gas leak. However, the odor added to the gas can fade. Gas may be present even though no odor exists.

Make certain you read and understand all warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your guide to safe and proper operation of this ﬁreplace.

WARNING: Any change to this ﬁreplace or its controls can be dangerous.

1.This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible for use with other gases unless a certiﬁed kit is used.

2.For propane/LP ﬁreplace, do not place propane/LP supply tank(s) inside any structure. Locate propane/LP supply tank(s) outdoors. To prevent performance problems, do not use pro- pane/LP fuel tank of less than 100 lbs. capacity.

3.If you smell gas
