This product is listed to ANSI standards for "Vented Gas
Appliance Heaters" and applicable sections of "Gas
Burning Heating Appliances for Manufactured Homes and
Recreational Vehicles", and "Gas Fired Appliances for Use
at High Altitudes".
NOT INTENDED FOR USE AS A PRIMARY HEAT SOURCE.
This appliance is tested and approved as either supplemental
room heat or as a decorative appliance. It should not be
factored as primary heat in residential heating calculations.
Manufactured Home or Mobile Home installation may occur
only after the home is site located and must conform with
the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard,
Title 24 CFR, Part 3280, or, when such a standard is
not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home
Installations, ANSI/NCSBCS A225.1, or Standard for Gas
Equipped Recreational Vehicles and Mobile Housing, CSA
Z240.4.
When installed, the appliance must be electrically grounded
in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or
the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
B. Glass Specifications
This appliance is equipped with 5 mm ceramic glass behind
the curved glass. Replace glass only with 5 mm ceramic
glass. Please contact your dealer for replacement glass.

D. High Altitude Installations
Omni-Test Laboratories, Inc. listed gas appliances are tested
and approved without requiring changes for elevations from
0 to 2000 feet in the U.S.A. and 0 to 4500 feet in Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2000
feet, it may be necessary to decrease the input rating by
changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input
rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a
2000 foot elevation in the U.S.A. If the heating value of the
gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To identify
the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4500 feet
(in Canada), check with local authorities.
WARNING! Risk of Fire, Explosion or Electric Shock! DO
NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace any part of the control system and/or gas
control which has been under water.
