Combustion and Ventilation,

page 5.

6. Keep all air openings in the front and bottom

of heater clear and free of debris. This will

PRODUCT FEATURES

SAFETY DEVICE

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Deple-

tion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The

ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-free room

heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the heater if there

is not enough fresh air.

PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM

This heater has a piezo ignitor. This system re-

quires no matches, batteries or other sources to

light heater.

THERMOSTATIC HEAT CONTROL

bulb and a control valve. This results in the great-

est heater comfort. This can also result in lower

gas bills.
