Read these instructions carefully before installing or trying to operate this vent-free gas heater.
• Any change to this heater or its controls can be dangerous.
• Improper installation or use of the heater can cause serious injury or death from fire,
burns, explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Do not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner
flame patterns.
• Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other accessory, not approved
for use with this heater where applicable.
1. Due to high temperatures, the appliance should
be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies.
2. Children and adults should be alerted to the haz-
ard of high surface temperature and should stay
away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
3. Young children should be carefully supervised
when they are in the same room with the appli-
ance.

fied service person.

ments, burners and circulating air passageways
be kept clean.

9. The installation must conform with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.l/NFPA54.
10. This unit complies with the latest revision of ANSI
Z21.11.2-2007 Unvented Heaters and also complies
with ANSI Z21.60 Decorative Vented Appliances for
Solid Fuel Burning Fireplaces. State and local codes
may only allow operation of this appliance in a vented
configuration. Check your state or local codes. For
vented operation, see "Vented Instructions" in this
manual.
11. Do not install the heaters in a bathroom or bed-
room.
12. Correct installation of the ceramic fiber logs, proper
location of the heater, and annual cleaning are
necessary to avoid potential problems with soot-
ing. Sooting, resulting from improper installation
or operation, can settle on surfaces outside the
fireplace. See log placement instructions for proper
installation.
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 pat-
terns. Sooting and improper burning will occur.
14. CAUTION: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce
combustion byproducts including soot. Vent-free
appliances 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 recom-
mended to minimize the use of candles, incense,
etc. while the vent-free appliance is in operation.
