ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS


WARNING: Risk of indoor air pollution!
The products described in this manual are propane
direct-fired, forced air heaters. Propane forced air heaters
are primarily intended for use for temporary heating of
buildings under construction, alteration or repair. Direct-
fired means that all of the combustion products of the
heater enter the heated space. This appliance is rated
at 98% combustion efficiency, but does produce small
amounts of carbon monoxide.

DANGER: Carbon Monoxide Hazard: This heater
produces carbon monoxide, which has no odor.
Burning the heater in an enclosed space can kill its
occupants. Never use the heater in enclosed spaces
such as a tent, a camper, any vehicle or recreational
vehicle (RV), enclosed shelter, or any other enclosed
areas.

DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead
to death.
Carbon monoxide is toxic. Humans can tolerate only small
amounts of carbon monoxide and so precautions should
be taken to provide proper ventilation. Failure to provide
proper ventilation in accordance with the instructions in
this manual can result in death. People with breathing

problems should consult a physician before using this
heater. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble
the flu. Symptoms of improper ventilation/carbon
monoxide poisoning are: Headache, Dizziness, Nausea,
Dry Mouth, Sore Throat, Burning of Nose and Eyes.
If you experience any of these symptoms, get fresh air
at once! Have your heater serviced and check for proper
ventilation. Some people are more affected by carbon
monoxide than others. These include: pregnant women,
those with heart or lung problems, anemia or those under
the influence of alcohol or at high altitudes.
WHAT TO DO IF THE SMELL OF GAS IS PRESENT:
DO NOT attempt to light the heater.
Extinguish any open flame.
Shut off gas to heater.
If odor continues, contact your local gas supplier or fire
department.

device that can cause a spark.
Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbors
phone. Follow the gas suppliers instructions.
If you can not reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.
