GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
VENTILATION
Even though this heater operates very close to 100 percent combustion efficiency, it still produces small amounts of carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is toxic.
CO can build up in a confined spaces and failure to provide adequate ventilation can be fatal.
The early symptoms of asphyxiation caused by inadequate ventilation are:
•headache •nausea
•dizziness •dry mouth or sore throat
Be sure to follow all warnings in this manual.
WE RECOMMEND THE USE OF A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR
BYSTANDERS
When the heater is to be operated in the presence of other people the user is responsible for informing those present of the safety precautions and of the hazards involved.
