WARNING
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
⚫Electrical Rating: 120 Volts / 60 Hz / 250W, Phase 1.
⚫Must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code,
Part I, CSA C22.1 when install this appliance.
⚫Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.
⚫To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord or plugs in water or other liquid.
⚫Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting
on or taking off parts.
⚫Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.
⚫Never remove the grounding plug or use with an adapter of 2 prongs.
⚫Use only extension cords with a 3 prong grounding plug, rated for the power of the
equipment, and approved for outdoor use with a W-A marking.
WARNING
Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning you,
your family or others.
⚫Know the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: headache, dizziness, weakness,
nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and confusion. Carbon monoxide reduces the blood's ability
to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in loss of consciousness and death.
⚫See a doctor if you or others develop cold or flu-like symptoms while cooking or in the
vicinity of this appliance. Carbon monoxide poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a
cold or flu, is often detected too late.
⚫Alcohol consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the elderly,
smokers, and people with blood or circulatory system problems, such as anemia, or heat
disease.
WARNING
Contact local building or fire officials about restrictions and installation
inspection requirements in your area.

WARNING
⚫Creosote - Formation and need for removal. When wood pellets are burned slowly, they
produce tar and other organic vapors that combine with expelled moisture to form
creosote. The creosote vapors condense in a relatively cool oven flue and exhaust hood
of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining and
exhaust hood. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
⚫The grease duct should be inspected at least twice a year to determine when grease
and/or creosote buildup has occurred.
⚫When grease or creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce risk of fire.
⚫Disposal of ashes - Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. When the ashes are
disposed by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
⚫SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
