General Safety Information continued.
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This heater is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances
produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion process. This
product is designed to produce extremely minute, non-hazardous
amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance with all warn-
ings and instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the heater.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like symptoms,
watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and possibly death.You
can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symp-
toms are present during operation of this product get fresh air imme-
diately!
For outdoor use only.
Never use inside house, or other unventilated or enclosed areas.
This heater consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or
enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.
DANGER
WARNING
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible,
odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added to help detect
leaks and can be described as a ”rotten egg” smell.The odorant can
fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the
lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources including match-
es, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from
the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdraw.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with local ordi-
nances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not
in use.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65:
WARNING: Propane and by-products of combustion of propane contain
chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects,
or other reproductive harm.
