Your Safety is Important to Us! This symbol is used throughout the manual to notify you of possible fire, electrical or burn hazards. Please pay special attention when reading and following the warnings in these sections.

Installation, service and annual inspection of heater must be done by a contractor qualified in the installation and service of gas-fired heating equipment.

Read this manual carefully before installation, operation or service of this equipment.

This heater is designed for heating nonresidential indoor spaces. Do not install in residential spaces. These instructions, the layout drawing, local codes and ordinances, and applicable standards that apply to gas piping, electrical wiring, venting, etc. must be thoroughly understood before proceeding with the installation.

Protective gear is to be worn during installation, operation and service. Thin sheet metal parts, such as the reflector portion of the heater and the various venting components, have sharp edges. To prevent injury, the use of work gloves is recommended. The use of gloves will also prevent the transfer of body oils from the hands to the surface of the reflector.

Before installation, check that local distribution conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and adjustment of the appliance are compatible.

This heater must be applied and operated under the general concepts of reasonable use and installed using best building practices.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do no play with the appliance.
