OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not allow fans to blow directly into the stove. Do not place a blower inside the burn area of the stove. Ceiling fans may create drafts that alter flame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will result.

During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various components of this appliance are treated with certain oils, films or bonding agents. These chemicals are not harmful, but may produce annoying smoke and smells as they are burned off during the initial operation of the appliance, possibly causing headaches or eye or lung irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.

The initial break-in operation should last two to three hours with the burner at the highest setting. Provide maximum ventila- tion by opening windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining after this initial break-in will be slight and will disappear with continued use.
