 WARNING

California Proposition 65

Combustion by-products produced when using

this product contain chemicals known to the State

of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and

other reproductive harm.

 WARNING

                                BURN HAZARD

• Never leave heater unattended when hot or in use.

• Keep out of reach of children.

 WARNING

• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas

is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is

normally added to help detect leaks and can be 

described as a “rotten egg” smell. The odorant can 

fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable

by smell alone.

• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane

will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by 

ignition sources including matches, lighters, sparks or

open flames of any kind many feet away from the 

original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor 

withdrawal.

• Store or use propane gas in compliance with local 

ordinances and codes or with ANS/NFPA 58. Turn off 

propane when not in use.

 WARNING

• Alert children and adults to the hazards of high surface 

temperatures. Stay away from these surfaces to avoid 

burning skin or igniting clothing.

• Carefully supervise young children when in the vicinity

of the heater.

• Do not hang clothing or any other flammable materials

from the heater, or place on or near the heater.

• Replace any guard or protective device removed for

servicing the appliance prior to placing back in service.

• Installation and repair should be done by a qualified

service person. The heater should be inspected

before use and annually by a qualified service person.

More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary.

It is imperative that the control compartment, burners,

and circulating air passageway of the appliance be

kept clean.

 CAUTION

CAUTION indicates an imminently hazardous situation

which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate

personal injury, or property damage.

 CAUTION

                            SERVICE SAFETY

• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Make sure

propane cylinder valve outlet is clean.

• During set up, check all connections and fittings for

leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame.

• Use as a heating appliance only. Never alter in any 

way or use with any device.

 WARNING

Certain materials or items, when stored under the 

heater, will be subjected to radiant heat and could be

seriously damaged.
