LIGHTING THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME

›WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

›CAUTION: Lighting the Tucson for the first time and adjustments to the unit should be performed by qualified service personnel.

SMOKE AND FUMES WARNING

When lit for the first time, the Tucson will emit some smoke and fumes. This is normal “off-gassing” of the paints and oils used in the manufacturing and assembly of the unit. Open windows to vent the room if necessary. The off gassing and fumes will subside after the first 10 to 20 minutes of operation.

BREAK-IN WARNING

The natural stones used in the assembly of the Tucson were polished using a water- based polishing system prior to the assembly of the unit. Any residue moisture in the stones must be dried out slowly to avoid damaging the stones. This is accomplished by adhering to the following break-in procedure.

BREAK-IN PROCEDURE

When lit the first time, the Tucson should be burned for no more than 15 minutes, then allowed to cool for 1 to 2 hours. This gentle warming and cooling of the unit will allow any residual moisture in the stones to evaporate slowly. Once this break-in procedure has been completed, the Tucson can be burned at will with no time restrictions on the length of burn.

ODORS AND IMPURITIES

A heater of this type may produce odors during heater operation due to impurities that may exist in the immediate area. Sources of impurities can be cleaning solvents, paint solvents, cigarettes, smoke, pet hair, dust, adhesives, new carpet, and/or textiles. Such odors will dissipate. However, opening a window or otherwise providing additional ventilation to the area can alleviate the condition. If any odor persists, contact your dealer or an authorized service technician.
