SAFETY NOTES

The Crossfire Model CF-04 biomass fuel stove is significantly different from a conventional wood-burning stove. One major difference is that the CF-04 requires a reliable source of electrical energy to properly operate. The owner, installer, and operator must understand this manual and read it in its entirety. Understanding this manual should be completed and followed before installation or operation of the CF-04 is attempted. Failure to follow installation and operation instructions or perform necessary maintenance can result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. Country Flame strongly recommends that a certified professional install the Crossfire Model CF-04.
