6. Before installing in a solid fuel burning fireplace, the chimney
flue and firebox must be cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes and
loose paint by a qualified chimney cleaner. Creosote will ig-
nite if highly heated. Inspect chimney flue for damage. If dam-
aged, operate heater with flue damper closed.

doors closed. If you operate heater with doors closed, heat
buildup inside fireplace will cause glass to burst. Also if fire-

before operating heater.
8. This log heater is designed to be smokeless. If logs ever appear
to smoke, turn off heater and call a qualified service person.
Note: During initial operation, slight smoking could occur due
to log curing and heater burning manufacturing residues.
9. To prevent the creation of soot, follow the instructions in Clean-
ing and Maintenance, page 17.
10. Before using furniture polish, wax, carpet cleaner, or similar
products, turn heater off. If heated, the vapors from these prod-
ucts may create a white powder residue within burner box or
on adjacent walls or furniture.
11. This heater needs fresh, outside air ventilation to run properly.
This heater has an oxygen depletion sensing (ODS) pilot light
safety system. The ODS shuts down the heater if not enough
fresh air is available. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation,
pages 4 through 6. If heater keeps shutting off, see Trouble-
shooting, pages 18 through 20.

• where flammable liquids or vapors are used or stored
• under dusty conditions

objects.

spect the room heater and to replace any part of the control
