WARNING
When used without adequate combustion and ventilation air,
heater may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless,
poisonous gas.
Do not install heater until all necessary provisions are made for
combustion and ventilation air. Consult the written instructions
provided with the heater for information concerning
combustion and ventilation air. In the absence of instructions,
refer to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Section
5.3 or applicable local codes.
This heater is equipped with a PILOT LIGHT SAFETY
SYSTEM designed to turn off the heater if not enough fresh air
is available.
DO NOT TAMPER WITH PILOT LIGHT SAFETY
SYSTEM!
If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air.
If heater keeps shutting off, have it serviced. Keep burner and
control compartment clean.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO
DEATH.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu,
with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these
signs, heater may not be working properly. Get fresh air at
once! Have heater serviced.
Some people – pregnant women, persons with heart or lung
disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, those at
high altitudes – are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others.
The pilot light safety system senses the depletion of oxygen
at its location. If this heater is installed in a structure having a
high vertical dimension, the possibility exists that the oxygen
supply at the higher levels will be less than that at the heater. In
this type of application, a fan to circulate the structure air will
minimize this effect. The use of this fan will also improve the
comfort level in the structure. When a fan is used to circulate
air, it should be located so that the air flow is not directed at
the burner.
