materials, gasoline, and  other
flammable  vapors  and  liquids.
1.  This   appliance   is  only  for  use
      with   the  type  of  gas  indicated
      on  the  rating  plate. This
      appliance  is  not  convertible  for
       use  with  other  gases.
2.   Do   not    place   propane/LP
      supply   tank(s)   inside  any
       structure. Locate  propane/LP
       supply   tank(s)   outside.
3.    If  you  smell  gas
   
 
Shut  off  gas  supply.
    Do  not  try  to  light  any  appliance.
     Do  not  touch  any  electrical  switch;
        do  not  use  any  phone  in  your
        building.
     Immediately  call  your  gas  sup
        plier  from a neighbor’s  phone.
        Follow  the  gas supplier’s
        instructions.
     If  you  cannot  reach  your  gas
        supplier,  call  the  fire
       department.
4.    Always  run  heater  with  control
       knob  at  LOW  or  HIGH  locked
        positions.  Never   set   control
        knob  between  locked  positions.
        Poor  combustion  and  higher
        levels of  carbon  monoxide may
        result.
5.    This  heater  needs  fresh,
       outside  air  ventilation  to run
       properly. This  heater  has  an
       Oxygen  Depletion  Sensor
       (ODS) safety  shutoff  system.
       The  ODS  shuts  down  the
       heater  if  not  enough  fresh  air
       is  available. See  Fresh  Air  for
       Combustion  and  Ventilation
       pages  4  and  5.
6.    Keep  all  air  openings  in  front
       and  bottom  of  heater clear
       and  free  of  debris. This  will
       insure  enough  air  for  proper
       combustion.
7.   If  heater  shuts  off. Do  not
      relight  until  you  provide  fresh,
       outside  air. If  heater keeps
      shutting  off, have  it  serviced.
8.   Do  not  operate  heater
  
  
where  flammable  liquids  or  va-
       pors are  used  or  stored
    under  dusty  conditions
9.   Do not install models ML100HPA
and ML100TPA in a bathroom.

place  before  running  the heater.
10.   Before  using  furniture  polish,
        wax, carpet  cleaner, or  similar
        products, turn heater off. If heated,
        the  vapors  from  these products
        may  create  a  white  powder
        residue  within burner  box or on
        adjacent  walls  or furniture.
11.   Do  not  use  heater  if  any  part
        has  been  under  water.
  Immediately  call  a qualified
  service  technician  to  inspect
  the  room heater  and  to
  replace  any  part  of  the  control
  system  and  any  gas  control
  which  has  been  under water.
12.  Turn  off  heater  and  let  cool
        before  servicing.  Only  a
        qualified  service  person  should
        service and  repair  heater.
13.   Operating  heater  above
        elevations  of  4,500  feet  could
        cause  pilot  outage.
14.  To  prevent  performance,
        problems, do not  use
        propane/LP fuel tank of  less
        than  100 lbs. capacity.
Carbon   Monoxide   Poisoning:
Early  signs  of  carbon  monoxide
poisoning  resemble  the flu with
headaches, dizziness, or  nausea.
If   you  have  these  signs, the  heater
may  not  be  working  properly. Get
fresh  air  at  once!
 Have  heater
serviced. Some  people  are  more  af-
fected  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

present  even  though  no  odor
exists. Make  certain  you  read  and
