Note: When first running the heater there may
be an odor. This is normal as the heater has a
surface coating on the internal parts. For the
first several hours of operation, the coating
reacts with the internal parts to permanently
protect them. The odor is safe; if you are
sensitive to the odor, it is recommended to run
the heater in a well-ventilated area until the
odor dissipates.
Warning: This is an unvented, electric
appliance. DO NOT attempt to burn wood or
manufactured firelogs in or on this appliance
or grate.
