Planning
Planning the installation is an important first step. It will
save time and money later in the actual installation. In
planning the installation, consider:
• Where the heater will be located.
• All components needed to complete the installation.
• DO NOT use this heater in bedrooms, bathrooms,
mobile homes or in recreational vehicles.
• Installation and repair should be done by a qualified
service person.
• DO NOT use this heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified technician to inspect
the appliance and replace any part of the control sys-
tem and any gas control which has been under water.
• When used as an unvented heater, always ensure
that there is adequate ventilation from the room where
the appliance is operating. This appliance is equipped
with an ODS (oxygen depletion sensor) pilot light safety
system designed to shut off the appliance if enough
fresh air is not available.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE USED WITH GLASS
DOORS IN CLOSED POSITION.
Keep the burner and control compartment clean. See
installation and operating instructions supplied with the
heater.

ING AND SHIPPING, VARIOUS COMPONENTS OF
THIS APPLIANCE ARE TREATED WITH CERTAIN
OILS, FILMS OR BONDING AGENTS. THESE CHEMI-
CALS ARE NOT HARMFUL, BUT MAY PRODUCE
ANNOYING SMOKE AND SMELLS AS THEY ARE
BURNED OFF DURING THE INITIAL OPERATION
OF THE APPLIANCE, POSSIBLY CAUSING HEAD-
ACHES OR EYE OR LUNG IRRITATION. THIS IS A

REMAINING AFTER THIS INITIAL BREAK-IN WILL BE
SLIGHT AND WILL DISAPPEAR WITH CONTINUED
USE.

appliance in vented configurations. Check your state or
local codes. If unvented room heaters are not permit-
ted, the fireplace vent damper must be locked at the
minimum vent area required by local codes or by the
