INSTALLATION
Continued
CAUTION: This heater cre-
ates warm air currents. These
currents move heat to wall sur-
faces next to heater. Installing
heater next to vinyl or cloth wall
coverings or operating heater
where impurities (such as, but
not limited to, tobacco smoke,
aromatic candles, cleaning flu-
ids, oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) in
the air exist, may discolor walls
or cause odors.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture
to the air. Although this is beneficial, installing
heater in rooms without enough ventilation air may
cause mildew to form from too much moisture.
See Air for Combustion and Ventilation, pages
6 through 8.

Use the correct gas type (natural or propane/LP)
for your unit. If your gas supply is not correct, do
not install heater. Call dealer where you bought
heater for proper type heater.
WARNING: This appliance
is equipped for (natural or pro-
pane/LP) gas. Field conversion
is not permitted.
