Electric shock hazard. Can cause injury or death. Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to in- spect the furnace and to replace any part of the control system and any gas con- trol which has been under water.
!WARNING
Danger of explosion. Can cause injury or product or property damage. If over- heating occurs or if gas supply fails to shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the appliance before shutting off electri- cal supply.
!WARNING
Electric shock hazard. Can cause injury or death. Before attempting to perform any service or maintenance, turn the electrical power to unit OFF at disconnect switch(es). Unit may have multiple power supplies.
!WARNING
Danger of explosion and fire. Can cause injury or product or property damage. You must follow these instructions exactly.
BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not push in or turn by hand, do not try to repair it, call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
These unit heaters are equipped with an automatic spark ignition system. There is no pilot. In case of a safety shutdown, move thermostat switch to OFF, then return the thermostat switch to HEAT position.
