12. This heater needs fresh, outside air ven-
tilation 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 6. If heater keeps shutting off, see
Troubleshooting, page 24.

place in which an unvented room heater
is installed.

5. This heater shall not be installed in a
bedroom or bathroom unless installed as
a vented appliance (see Installing Damper
Clamp Accessory for Vented Operation,
page 11). This gas log set may not be
installed as a vented appliance in a bed-
room or bathroom in the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts.
6. Before installing in a solid fuel burning re-
place, the chimney ue and rebox must
be cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes and
loose paint by a qualied 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 smoke-
less. If logs ever appear to smoke, turn off
heater and call a qualied service person.
Note: During initial operation, slight smok-
ing could occur due to log curing and
heater burning manufacturing residues.
10. To prevent the creation of soot, follow the
instructions in Cleaning and Maintenance,
page 23.
11. Before using furniture polish, wax, carpet
cleaner, or similar 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.
