  Safety Features 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
•  Overheat:  The appliance will automatically shut 
down when the appliance exceeds a predetermined 
temperature. 
•  Flame Failure:  The appliance will automatically 
shut down if the burner flame is extinguished. 
•  Power Failure:  The appliance will cut off the gas if 
it loses electrical power. 
•  Power Surge Fuse:  A glass fuse power supply 
harness protects against overcurrent.  If the fuse 
blows then all indicator lamps will be off. 
•  Spark Detector:  The appliance automatically 
shuts down if there is an abnormal spark at ignition. 
•  Keep the area around the appliance clear and free 
from combustible materials, gasoline, and other 
flammable vapors and liquids. 
•  Do not use this appliance if any part has been 
under water.  Immediately call a qualified service 
technician to inspect the appliance and to replace 
any part of the control system and any gas control 
which has been under water. 
•  Do not operate appliance with the glass front 
removed, cracked, or broken.  Replacement of the 
glass should be performed by a licensed or 
qualified service technician. 
•  Broken or damaged components should be 
removed or repaired by a licensed or qualified 
service technician. 
•  Never store liquid propane containers indoors. 
•  Young children should be carefully supervised 
when they are in the same room as the appliance. 
Toddlers, young children and others may be 
susceptible to accidental contact burns.  A physical 
barrier is recommended if there are at risk 
individuals in the house.  To restrict access to a 
fireplace or stove, install an adjustable safety gate 
to keep toddlers, young children and other at risk 
individuals out of the room and away from hot 
surfaces. 
     WARNING 
•  Do not block the warm air discharge.  Do not allow 
anyone to sleep directly in front of the appliance. 
•  Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be 
located out of traffic and away from furniture and 
draperies. 
•  Children and adults should be alerted to the 
hazards of high surface temperature and should 
stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition.  Hand 
or body contact with the warm air discharge louvers 
and glass must be avoided. 
•  Young children should be carefully supervised 
when they are in the same room as the appliance. 
•  Clothing or other flammable material should not be 
placed on or near the appliance. 
•  Do not insert items into the louvers. 
•  Do not spray aerosols near the appliance while it is 
operating.  Most aerosols contain butane gas which 
is flammable. 
•  Do not place items on or against the appliance.  If 
there is a power failure while the appliance is ON 
then the overheat vent on top of the panel may 
open to release internal heat.  An item placed on 
top of the appliance could prevent the overheat 
vent from opening resulting in damage to the 
appliance. 
•  Any safety filter or guard removed for servicing 
must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.
