SAFETY INFORMATION

Read and understand this Owner's Manual

thoroughly before installing and using this Fireplace

Insert.

Make sure to install your Fireplace Insert:

 According to the manufacturer's recommendations.

 In accordance with all applicable codes.

 With the proper sized chimney.

When using your Fireplace Insert:

 Warn children and others unfamiliar with woodstoves

of the danger of touching hot, radiating surfaces of

your Fireplace Insert. For your additional safety,

obtain hearth and stove guards through your local

dealer.

 Follow recommended break-in procedure as outlined

in this manual.

 Burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and

lower emissions result when burning air-dried,

seasoned wood, as compared to green or freshly cut

wood.

 Use caution when loading firewood into a hot stove.

 Inspect the stovepipe, chimney connector and

chimney, as recommended.

Follow these safety precautions:

 Never modify this Fireplace Insert in any way,

especially the primary air control system.

 Never burn kiln dried wood, painted or treated wood,

solvents, trash, plywood, colored or glossy paper,

artificial logs, cardboard, coal, garbage or driftwood.

Especially, do not burn coal in this Fireplace Insert.

 Never use gasoline type fuel, kerosene, charcoal

lighter fluid, or other liquid fuels or solid fire starters

to start or invigorate the fire. These fuels can

possibly generate carbon monoxide, which can sap

the supply of oxygen. Keep all such materials away

from the Fireplace Insert.

 Never use a wood grate or other device to elevate the

fire.

 Do Not allow logs to rest against or otherwise come

in contact with the glass when the door is closed.

 Do Not slam the door or use the door to force wood

in to the Fireplace Insert.

 Never over-fire your Fireplace Insert

 Never put articles of clothing or candles on a hot

Fireplace Insert.

 Do Not connect the Fireplace Insert to a flue that is

serving another appliance.

clothing, and other items, at least 36" (0.92 m) from

 Install a smoke detector, preferably in an area away

from your wood Fireplace Insert.

 Keep a fire extinguisher handy. We recommend the

type rated "A B C."

 Dispose of ashes properly.

 Keep children and pets away from the stove; they

could be burned by touching a hot stove.

 Clean your chimney system as needed.
