9.Do not use heater if any part has been underwater. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the room heater and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been underwater.

10.Operating heater above elevations of 4,500 feet could cause pilot/ODS to shutdown heater.

11.Always run heater with control knob in a locked position. Never set control knob between locked positions. Poor combustion and higher levels of carbon monoxide may result if control knob is left between locked positions.

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 others. 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 warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.
