may not be working properly. Get
fresh air at once! Have heater

fected by carbon monoxide than
others. These include pregnant
women, persons with heart or lung
disease or anemia, those under the
influence of alcohol, and those
at high altitudes.

Propane/LP gas can fade. Propane/
LP gas may be present even though
no odor exists.

stand all warnings. Keep this manual
