INSTALLING DAMPER CLAMP ACCESSORY FOR VENTED OPERATION

Note: When used as a vented heater, appliance must be installed only in a solid-fuel burning fireplace with a working flue and constructed of noncombustible material.

If your heater is a manually controlled model, you may use this heater as a vented product. There are three reasons for operating your heater in the vented mode:

1.The fireplace does not meet the clearance to combustibles re- quirements for vent-free operation

2.State or local codes do not permit vent-free operation

3.You prefer vented operation
