IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s
manual carefully and completely be-
fore trying to assemble, operate, or
service this cast stove and burner sys-
tem. Improper use of this cast stove
and burner system can cause serious
injury or death from burns, fire, explo-
sions, electrical shock, and carbon
monoxide poisoning.

DANGER: Carbon monoxide poison-
ing may lead to death!


This cast stove with burner system is a
vented product. This cast stove with
burner system will not produce any gas
leakage into your home if properly in-
stalled. This cast stove with burner sys-
tem must be properly installed by a quali-
fied service person. The glass door must
be properly seated and sealed. If this unit
is not properly installed by a qualified
service person with glass door properly
seated and sealed, gas leakage can occur.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early
signs of carbon monoxide poisoning re-
semble the flu, with headaches, dizziness,
or nausea. If you have any of these signs,
the cast stove with burner system may
not have been installed properly. Get
fresh air at once!
Have cast stove and
burner system inspected and serviced by
a qualified service person. Some people
are more affected by carbon monoxide
than others. These include pregnant
women, people with heart or lung disease
or anemia, those under influence of alco-
hol, and those at high altitudes.

Propane/LP gas and natural gas are both
odorless. An odor-making agent is added
to each of these gases. The odor helps
you detect a gas leak. However, the odor
added to these gases can fade. Gas may
be present even though no odor exists.

warnings. Keep this manual for refer-
ence. It is your guide to safe and proper
