safety shutoff system shuts down the heater if not enough fresh air is available. See Fresh Air for Com- bustion and Ventilation, page 3.

3.Keep all air openings in heater clear, free of debris or any blockage. This will insure that enough air for proper combustion enters the heater.

4.If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh, outside air. If heater keeps shutting off, it requires servicing.

6.Do not run heater:

•Where flammable liquids or vapors are used or stored

•During dusty conditions.

7.Before using furniture polish, wax, carpet cleaner or similar products, turn heater off. If heated the vapors from these products may create a white powder residue within burner box or on adjacent walls or furniture.

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

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

10.Always run heater with control knob in a locked position. Never set control knob between locked po- sitions. 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!

These include pregnant women, persons with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influ- ence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
