IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Continued from page 3

13.Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not allow fans to blow directly into fireplace. Do not place a blower inside burn area of firebox. Ceiling fans may create drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Sooting and improper burning will occur.

14.Caution: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce combustion by-products including soot. Vent-free appli- ances will not filter or clean soot produced by these types of products. In addition, the smoke and/or aromatics (scents) may be reburnt in the vent-free appliance which can produce odors. It is recommended to minimize the use of candles, incense, etc. while the vent-free appliance is in operation.

15.This is an unvented gas-fired heater. It uses air (oxygen) from the room in which it is installed. Provisions for ad- equate combustion and ventilation air must be provided. See page 7.

16.Keep room area clear and free from combustible materi- als, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

17.Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater. They are not intended to be a primary heating appliance. Water vapor produced by an unvented heater can create moisture problems in a home when operated for extended periods of time.

18.During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various components of this appliance are treated with certain oils, films or bonding agents. These chemicals are not harmful but may produce annoying smoke and smells as they are burned off during the initial operation of the appliance; possibly causing headaches or eye or lung irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.

The initial break-in operation should last two to three hours with the burner at the highest setting. Provide maximum ventilation by opening windows or doors to allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining after this initial break-in period will be slight and will disappear with continued use.

19.Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are for elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above 2,000 feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each 1,000 feet above sea level. See the National Fuel Gas Code.

20.The heater and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

21.The heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

22.Do not use this room heater if any part has been under water. 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 under water.

23.This appliance must not be used with glass doors in the closed position. This can lead to pilot outages and severe sooting outside the fireplace.

24.Never burn solid fuels in a fireplace where a unvented room heater is installed.

25.Always have a fireplace screen in place when the ap- pliance is in operation and , unless other provisions for combustion air are provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for induction of combustion air.

This appliance may be installed in an aftermar- ket, permanently located, manufactured (mobile) home, where not prohibited by local codes.
