5. This heater needs fresh, outside air ventilation to run properly.
This heater has an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety

fresh air is available. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation,
pages 5 through 7.

ing and Maintenance, page 16.

products, turn heater off. If heated, the vapors from these prod-
ucts may create a white powder residue within burner box or
on adjacent walls or furniture.
9. Do not run heater
• where flammable liquids or vapors are used or stored.
• under dusty conditions.
10. Do not use heater if any part has been under water. Immedi-
ately call a qualified service technician to inspect the room

gas control which has been under water.
11. Turn off and unplug heater and let cool before servicing. Only
a qualified service person should service and repair heater.

tank of less than 100 lb. capacity (propane/LP units only).
