WARNINGS

Operation of this appliance when not connected

to a properly installed and maintained venting

system can result in carbon monoxide (CO)

poisoning and possible death.

Carbon monoxide poisoning – early signs of

carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu

with headaches, dizziness, or nausea. If you

have these signs, get fresh air at once! Have the

heater inspected by a qualified service techni-

cian. Some people are more affected by carbon

monoxide than others. These include pregnant

women, people with heart or lung disease or

anemia, those under the influence of alcohol,

and those at high altitudes.
