SAFETY
INFORMATION
WARNINGS
IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s manual carefully and completely
before trying to assemble, operate, or service this heater. Improper
use of this heater can cause serious injury or death from burns, fire,
explosion, electrical shock, and carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:
Some people are more affected by carbon
monoxide than others. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu,
with headaches, dizziness, and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the heater may
not be working properly. Get fresh air at once! Have heater serviced.
Propane Gas:
Propane gas is odorless. An odor-making agent is added to propane
gas. The odor helps you detect a propane gas leak. However, the odor added to
propane gas can fade. Propane gas may be present even though no odor exists.
Make certain you read and understand all warnings. Keep this manual for reference.
