3. VENTILATION

A.
WARNING: This heater is an unvented appliance and MUST be
used ONLY in a well ventilated area. NEVER attempt to operate
the heater inside any vehicle, camper or enclosure.
B.
Any combustion process requires and consumes oxygen, and
will produce carbon monoxide. THIS HEATER MUST BE USED
WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. Do not use in a tightly
enclosed area. Two openings directly to the outdoors MUST be
provided. One HIGH and one LOW. Preferably on opposite sides
of the enclosure. EACH OPENING SHALL HAVE A MIMIMUM
FREE AREA OF 24 SQUARE INCHES (6" X 4"). Structures of tight
construction or tents using fire retardant materials will require
larger openings. If any additional fuel burning appliances are
operated, ALWAYS provide additional ventilation. Increase the
area of each opening by at least 2 square inches for each 1,000
BTU'S per hour of additional input rating.
C.
WARNING: Provide ample ventilation. This heater consumes air
(oxygen). Do not use this heater in unventilated structures to
avoid endangering your life. Provide additional ventilation for
any additional fuel-burning appliances and additional
occupants.
4. MIMIMUM CLEARANCE FROM
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
A.
When operating, the heater surfaces are extremely hot. Keep
sleeping bags, clothing, and all combustible materials clear of
the heater by at least the distances shown in figure 4.

WARNING: To avoid injury or property damage never allow
clothing, tents or other combustible materials within 30" of the
heater. This heater must be located at least 18" above the floor
