Safety Precautions

• IF YOU SMELL GAS:
* Do not light any appliance
* Extinguish any open flame
* Do not touch any electrical switch or plug or unplug anything
* Open windows and vacate building
* Call gas supplier from neighbor's house, if not reached, call fire
department
• This unit must be installed by a qualified installer to prevent the possibility of an
explosion. Your dealer will know the requirements in your area and can inform you of
those people considered qualified. The room heater should be inspected and
cleaned before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent
cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.
• The instructions in this manual must be strictly adhered to. Do not use makeshift
methods or compromise in the installation. Improper installation will void the warranty
and safety listing.
Look for this label:
For LPG only | Pout 11" W.C.
If the label is present, the
heater is equipped for LP
(propane). If the label is
absent, the heater is equipped
for NG (natural gas).
• Contact your local building
officials to obtain a permit
and information on any
installation restrictions or
inspection requirements in
your area. Notify your
insurance company of this
heater as well.
• It is imperative that control
compartments, screens, or
circulating air passageways
of the heater be kept clean
and free of obstructions.
These areas provide the air
necessary for safe
operation.
• Do not store or use gasoline
or other flammable liquids in
the vicinity of this heater.
• This heater is either approved for natural
gas (NG) or for propane (LP). Burning the
incorrect fuel will void the warranty and
safety listing and may cause an extreme
safety hazard. Direct questions about the
type of fuel used to your dealer. Check
the label and flame adjust knob on the
gas control valve.

• If the flame becomes sooty,
dark orange in color, or
extremely tall, do not
operate the heater. Call
your dealer and arrange for
proper servicing.
• Do not operate the heater if
it is not operating properly in
any fashion or if you are
uncertain. Call your dealer
for a full explanation of your
heater and what to expect.
• Do not operate if any portion of
the heater was submerged in
water or if any corrosion
occurs. Immediately call a
qualified service technician to
inspect the appliance and to
replace any part of the control
system and any gas control
wash has been under water.
