Paint Curing insures a durable finish. Start the heater and burn on low for 20
minutes. Turn off and let cool. Repeat twice to fully cure the paint.
Fumes and smoke from the paint curing and oil burning off the steel may occur
the first time you start your heater. This is normal. We recommend you open
windows to vent the room.
Condensation may appear on the glass each time you start the heater - this is
normal.
Blue Flames will occur on the heater when it first comes on. After fifteen
minutes the flames will turn a more realistic yellow and orange color.
Certain installations use a remote "wall switch" to turn the heater on and off. If
this is the case, leave the ON/OFF switch "ON".

See the optional
equipment instructions
for installing the battery.
Do not place any combustible items on top of or directly in front of the heater,
even temporarily. The optional thermostat may start the heater causing a
combustible item to ignite.
If the heater turns on and off frequently while using the thermostat, you may want
to adjust the flame height down until it produces just enough heat needed.
Your heater has an adjustable flame to tailor the look and heat output to your
specific needs. It is adjusted by turning the middle dial on the gas control valve.
