SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

Before beginning installation of the Sherwood Fireplace, read these instructions carefully to be sure you
understand them completely. Failure to follow them could cause fireplace malfunction resulting in serious
injury or property damage.

Obtain necessary permits from authorities in your local jurisdiction and comply with all local building codes.

To avoid the risk of damaging fireplace materials and increasing risk of spreading fire, do not use the fireplace
to cook or warm foods.

This unit has not been tested for use with doors. To reduce the risk of injury, do not install doors.

Do not over burn.

This product has not been tested for use with a chase. To reduce the risk of fire, do not install a chase.

Do not pack air spaces with insulation or other materials.

Creosote and soot formation and the need for its removal:

other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense
in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the
flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. Because of creosote and soot buildup, it is
necessary to inspect and clean the fireplace and chimney prior to use and periodically during the heating season.
Cleaning of the fireplace and the chimney system should be done annually at a minimum. In colder climates,
chimney cleaning may need to be done more often, periodically throughout the heating season.

Before servicing, allow the fireplace to cool. Always shut off any electricity or gas to the fireplace while
working on it.

Never use gasoline, kerosene, gasoline-type lantern fuel, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or
“freshen up” a fire in this fireplace. Keep all flammable liquids at a safe distance from the fireplace.

Burning some fuels (such as charcoal) can be hazardous due to the possibility of producing carbon monoxide,
a colorless, odorless gas. Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble flu symptoms including headaches,
dizziness or nausea. Overexposure to carbon monoxide can lead to illness and death.

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and

CAUTION

Do not burn large amounts of paper, cardboard, tree branches or building construction materials. The intense
fires these products create may overheat the fireplace thus causing damage to the unit or a potential fire
outside the firebox.
