NOTICE

will ignite if highly heated. Inspect chimney flue for damage. If damaged, operate heater
with flue damper closed.

drafting may cause pilot outage or sooting. Use a heat-resistant sealant. Do not seal
chimney flue damper.

CAUTION
This heater creates warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall surfaces next to
heater. Installing heater next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating heater where
impurities in the air (such as tobacco smoke) exist, may discolor walls.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Use only propane (LP) gas. If your gas supply is not propane (LP) gas, do not install heater. Call dealer
where you bought heater for proper type heater.
IMPORTANT:
Vent-free heaters add moisture to the air. Although this is beneficial, installing heater in
rooms without enough ventilation air may cause mildew to form from too much moisture. See Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, pages 5 through 7.

Check your state or local codes.
