Burn-in Period
During the first few times of operation of this appliance there will be some
odor due to the curing of the paint and burning off of lubricants used
in the manufacturing process. We recommend that you open windows
and ventilate the house during the initial burns. The paint emits non-toxic
odors during this process.
Depending on your use, the burn-in period may take a few hours or a few
days. Also if you have a sensitive sense of smell you may notice slight
odors during operating after the burn-in period is over.
KEEP YOUR HOUSE WELL VENTILATED DURING THE BURN-IN PERIOD.
THE ODOR AND HAZE EMITTED DURING THE BURN-IN PERIOD CAN BE
QUITE NOTICEABLE AND MAY SET OFF A SMOKE DETECTOR. MAKE
SURE SMOKE DETECTORS ARE NOT TOO CLOSE TO THE FIREBOX
(CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL CODE FOR ALLOWABLE DISTANCES).
