SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: This product contains and/or generates
chemicals known to the State of California to cause

IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s manual carefully and
completely before trying to assemble, operate or
service this fireplace. Improper use of this fireplace
can cause serious injury or death from burns, fire,
explosions, electrical shock and carbon monoxide
poisoning.
DANGER: Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead

This fireplace must be installed by a qualified (certified or licensed)

coaxial pipe (pipe within a pipe and having the same center) venting
system. It brings in fresh air for combustion through the outer pipe and
combustion gases are exhausted through the inner pipe. If the glass
door assembly and venting pipe are not properly seated, connected
and sealed, carbon monoxide leakage (spillage) can occur.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide
poisoning resemble the flu, with headaches, dizziness or nausea.
If you have these signs, the fireplace may not have been installed
properly. Get fresh air at once! Have fireplace inspected and ser
-
viced by a qualified service person. Some people are more affected
by carbon monoxide than others. These include pregnant women,
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influ-
ence of alcohol and those at high altitudes.
