Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the

people are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others. These include pregnant women, persons with
heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the
influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
Propane/LP Gas:
Propane/LP gas is odorless. An odor making agent is
added to propane/LP gas. The odor helps you detect a
Propane/LP gas leak. However the odor added to
propane/LP gas may be present even though no odor
exists. Make certain you read and understand all
warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your
guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.
