Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Some people
are more affected by carbon monoxide than oth-
ers. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning re-
semble the flu, with headaches, dizziness, and/or
nausea. If you have these signs, the heater may
not be working properly. Get fresh air at once!
Have heater serviced.
Propane Gas: Propane gas is odorless. An odor-
making agent is added to propane gas. The odor
helps you detect a propane gas leak. However, the
odor added to propane gas can fade. Propane gas
may be present even though no odor exists.
Make certain you read and understand all warn-
ings. Keep this manual for reference. It is your
guide to safe and proper operation of this heater.
• Install and use heater with care. Follow all local
ordinances and codes. In the absence of local or-
dinances and codes, refer to the Standard for Stor-
age and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gas,
ANSI/NFPA 58 and the Propane Installation Code,
CAN/CGA B149.2. This instructs on the safe stor-
age and handling of propane/LP gases.
• Use only the hose and factory preset regulator
provided with the heater.
• Use only propane gas set up for vapor with-
drawal.

air before using heater.
• Do not use heater in occupied dwellings, sleep-
ing quarters, campers, tents, or any type of

sible level.

bustible materials, gasoline, paint thinner, and
