5. This heater shall not be installed in a bedroom
or bathroom unless installed as a vented appli-
ance (see Installing Damper Clamp Accessory
for Vented Operation, page 11).
6. Before installing in a solid fuel burning
replace, the chimney ue and rebox must
be cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes and loose
paint by a qualied chimney cleaner. Creosote
will ignite if highly heated. A dirty chimney
ue may create and distribute soot within
the house. Inspect chimney ue for damage.
If damaged, repair ue and rebox before
operating heater.
7. Do not burn solid-fuel in a masonry or UL127
factory-built replace in which a vent-free
room heater is installed.
8. If replace has glass doors, never operate this
heater with glass doors closed. If you operate
heater with doors closed, heat buildup inside
replace will cause glass to burst. Make sure
there are no obstructions across openings of
replace.
9. This log heater is designed to be smokeless. If
logs ever appear to smoke, turn off heater and
call a qualied service person. Note: During
initial operation, slight smoking could occur
due to log curing and heater burning manu-
facturing residues.
10.
To prevent the creation of soot, follow the instruc-
tions in Cleaning and Maintenance, page 20.
11. Before using furniture polish, wax, carpet
cleaner, or similar products, turn heater off.
If heated, the vapors from these products may
create a white powder residue within burner
box or on adjacent walls or furniture.
12. This heater needs fresh, outside air ventilation to
run properly. This heater has an oxygen depletion
sensing (ODS) pilot light safety system. The
ODS shuts down the heater if not enough fresh
air is available. See Air for Combustion and
Ventilation, page 5. If heater keeps shutting off,
see Troubleshooting, page 22.
13. Do not run heater
• where ammable liquids or vapors are used
or stored
• under dusty conditions
14. Do not use this heater to cook food or burn
paper or other objects.

to or under water. Immediately call a qualied
service technician to inspect the room heater
and to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
16. Do not operate heater if any log is broken. Do
not operate heater if a log is chipped (dime-
sized or larger).
17.
Turn heater off and let cool before servicing, install-
ing, or repairing. Make sure the selector switch is in
the OFF position. Only a qualied service person
