FOLLOW THESE IMPORTANT CHILD SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Parts of your Valor Fireplace become
extremely hot while in operation.
The glass viewing window temperature
can exceed 500 F at full capacity.
Momentary contact with a hot glass
surface can cause a severe burn, even
if the fi replace is operating at reduced
heating capacity.
The glass window will remain hot
for an extended period of time after
the fi replace has been turned off .
Ensure that children are prevented from
touching the fi replace during the cool
down period.
Toddlers and Young Children must
be closely supervised at all times
when they are in the same room as
the operating fi replace. They lack full
awareness of danger and rely on your
protection. Toddlers, in particular, do
not have the motor skills and response
refl exes to withdraw in the event of
accidental contact with a hot surface.
A physical barrier is strongly
recommended if there are young
children, or at-risk individuals in the house.
Install an approved after-market safety
gate to keep toddlers, young children and
4
other at-risk individuals a safe distance
from the fi replace.
Keep the remote control handset out
of reach of children at all times. A wall
mount storage holster is provided with
your remote control handset.
Ensure that the fi replace, including
the pilot light, is completely turned
off when children are present and close
supervision and safety barriers are not
available—see page 7 of this manual.
If the fi replace is not going to be used
for the summer or any extended period
of time, remove the batteries from the
remote control handset and remote
battery box. It is recommended that
batteries are replaced annually in any
event—see page 18.
