WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS:

This Warranty does not cover the following:

• Changes in surface nishes as a result of normal use. As a heang appliance, some changes in color of interior and exterior surface

to assist the consumer and the dealer in selecng the proper Product for the applicaon. Consideraon must be given to the
Product locaon and conguraon, environmental condions, insulaon and air ghtness of the structure.

This warranty is void if:

• The applicable Product has been over-red, operated in atmospheres contaminated by chlorine, uorine, or other damaging

LIMITATIONS OF REMEDIES AND LIABILITY:

• EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, HHT MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE WARRANTY SPECIFIED

HEREIN. The owner’s exclusive remedy and HHT’s sole obligaon under this Warranty or in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be

limited to replacement of the Component Part(s), repair of the Component Part(s), or refund of the original purchase price of the

other rights which vary from State to State. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO DURATION OF THE

EXPRESSED WARRANTY SPECIFIED ABOVE FOR THE APPLICABLE PRODUCT. Some States do not allow limitaons on how long an
implied warranty lasts, so the above limitaon may not apply to you.

Important Safety and Operating Information

A. Appliance Safety

WARNING! DO NOT operate replace before reading
and understanding operating instructions. Failure

to operate replace according to operating instructions
could cause re or injury.

WARNING! Choking Hazard! Keep media out of reach
of children.

• Alert children and adults to hazards of high temperatures.

High temperatures may ignite clothing or other

ammable materials.

• Clothing, furniture, draperies, and other flammable

materials must not be placed on or near the appliance.

Young children should be carefully supervised when they

are in the same room as the appliance. Toddlers, young

children and others may be susceptible to accidental

contact burns.

• A physical barrier is recommended if there are at risk
individuals in the house.

• To restrict access to a replace or stove, install an
adjustable safety gate to keep toddlers, young children,
pets and other at risk individuals out of the room and
away from hot surfaces.

• Install a switch lock or a wall/remote control with child
protection lockout feature.

• Keep remote controls out of reach of children.

• Never leave children alone near a hot replace, whether
operating or cooling down.

• Teach children to NEVER touch the replace.

• Consider not using the replace when children will be
present.

Contact your dealer for more information, or visit: www.
hpba.org/safety-information.

To prevent unintended operation when not using your re­place for an extended period of time (summer months,
vacations, trips, etc):

• Remove batteries from remote controls.

• Turn o󰀨 wall controls.

• Unplug 6 volt adapter plug.

Clear Space

WARNING! DO NOT place combustible objects in front
of the replace. High temperatures may start a re. See

Figure 3.1.

Avoid placing candles, electronics and other heat-sensitive

objects on mantel or hearth. Heat may damage these
objects.

Note: See appliance Installation

Important Safety and Operating Information (continued)

OWNER

Please retain these instructions for future reference

.

WARNING

• Any change to this heater or its controls can be dangerous.

• Improper installation or use of the heater can cause serious injury or death from re, burns, explosion

or carbon monoxide poisoning.

• Do not allow fans to blow directly into the replace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner ame patterns.

• Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other accessory, not approved for use with

this heater where applicable.

1. Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be
located out of tra󰀩c and away from furniture and
draperies.

2. Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard

of high surface temperature and should stay away

to avoid burns or clothing ignition.

3. Young children should be carefully supervised when
they are in the same room with the appliance.

4. Do not place clothing or other ammable material
on or near the appliance.

5. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing

an appliance, must be replaced prior to operating

the heater.

6. Installation and repair should be done by a quali­ed service person. To prevent malfunction and/or

sooting, an unvented gas heater should be cleaned
before use and at least annually by a professional

service person. More frequent cleaning may be
required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bed­ding materials, etc. It is imperative that control com-

partments, burners and circulating air passageways

be kept clean.

7. WARNING: Any change to this heater or its controls
can be dangerous.

8. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone
heater. They are not intended to be the primary
heating appliance.

9. CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING: Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the u with
headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these
signs, obtain fresh air immediately. Have the heater
serviced as it may not be operating properly.

10. The installation must conform with local codes or, in

the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.l/NFPA54.

11. This unit complies with ANSI Z21.11.2 Unvented
Heaters, latest edition.

12. Do not install the heaters in a bathroom or bedroom.

13. Correct installation of the glass media, optional stone
and ceramic ber logs, proper location of the heater,

and annual cleaning are necessary to avoid potential

problems with sooting. Sooting, resulting from improper

installation or operation, can settle on surfaces outside

the replace. Refer to log placement instructions for
proper installation.

14. Avoid any drafts that alter burner ame patterns. Do not
allow fans to blow directly into replace. Do not place
a blower inside burn area of rebox. Ceiling fans may
create drafts that alter burner ame patterns. Sooting
and improper burning will occur.

15. Caution: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce
combustion by-products including soot. Vent-free
appliances will not lter or clean soot produced by
these types of products. In addition, the smoke and/
or aromatics (scents) may be reburned in the vent-free
appliance which can produce odors. It is recommended
to minimize the use of candles, incense, etc. while the
vent-free appliance is in operation.

16. This heater shall not be installed in a room or space

unless the required volume of indoor combustion air is
provided by the method described in the National Fuel

Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the International
Fuel Gas Code or applicable local codes.

17. Keep room area clear and free from combustible mate­rials, gasoline and other ammable vapors and liquids.

18. Unvented gas heaters emit moisture into the living
area. In most homes of average construction, this
does not pose a problem. In houses of extremely

tight construction, additional mechanical ventilation is

recommended.

19. During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various

components of this appliance are treated with certain

oils, lms or bonding agents. These chemicals are not

harmful but may produce annoying smoke and smells
as they are burned o󰀨 during the initial operation of the

appliance; possibly causing headaches or eye or lung

irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.

The initial break-in operation should last three to four

hours with the burner at the highest setting. Provide
maximum ventilation by opening windows or doors to
allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining after this
initial break-in period will be slight and will disappear
with continued use.

20. Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are for
elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above 2,000

feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each

1,000 feet above sea level. Refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code.

21. The appliance and its appliance main gas valve must

be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pres-

sures in excess of 1⁄2 psig (3.5 kPa).

22. The appliance must be isolated from gas supply piping
system by closing its equipment shuto󰀨 valve during

any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than 1⁄2 psig (3.5 kPa).

23. Do not use this room heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualied service technician

to inspect the room heater and to replace any part of
the control system and any gas control which has been

under water.

24. Never burn solid fuels in a replace where a unvented
room heater is installed.
