Battery must be recycled 

or disposed of properly.

WARNING:

not be operated with an accumu-

lation of dust or dirt on or in the 

unit, as this can cause a build up 

of heat and eventual damage. For 

this reason the heater must be 

inspected regularly, depending 

upon conditions and at least at 

yearly intervals.

Light Bulb Replacement

Light bulbs need to be replaced 

when you notice a dark section of 

the flame. There are two bulbs, 

which generate the flames.

they are close to the end of their 

rated life. Group replacement will 

reduce the number of times you 

will need to open the unit to re-

place light bulbs.

lier or candelabra bulbs with E-12 

(small) socket base, 120 Volt. 

Do 

not exceed 60 Watt per bulb
