5100-I ACT WOOD INSERT
When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first several
hours. This is caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils
remaining from manufacturing.
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools
down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise
does not affect the operation or longevity of the appliance.
The blower produces a whirring sound which increases in volume as the speed
is increased.
CAUTION
Odors and vapors are released during initial operation.
• Curing of high temperature paint.
• Open windows for air circulation.
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
