SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING
!
If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a
fi re or explosion may result causing property damage, personal
injury or death. Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,
service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage,
bodily injury or even death. Please read entire manual before
you install and use your appliance.
This appliance has not been tested with an unvented gas log
set. To reduce risk of fi re or injury, do not install an unvented
gas log set into the appliance.
- This appliance can be very hot when burning.
- Combustible materials such as fi rewood, wet clothing, etc. placed too
close can catch fi re.
- Children and pets must be kept from touching the appliance when it is hot.
- The chimney must be sound and free of cracks. Before installing this unit,
contact the local building or fi re authority and follow their guidelines.
- Operate only with the door tightly closed.

- Do not use an elevated grate or otherwise raise the fi re.
- At least 14 square inches of outside air must be admitted to the room or
directly to the unit through a 4" diameter pipe.
- This appliance is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher effi ciencies
and lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned
hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut
hardwoods.
- Do not start a fi re with chemicals or fl uids such as gasoline, engine oil,
etc.
- Do not burn treated wood, coal, charcoal, colored paper, cardboard,
solvents or garbage.

achieve heat output rates that exceed design specifi cations can result in
steel distortion and damage.
