safety information
!WARNING
• Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other accessory not approved for use with this
appliance.
• This appliance must not be connected to a chimney flue pipe serving a separate solid fuel burning
appliance.
• Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has
been under water.
• Do not operate the appliance with the glass door removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the glass
should be done by a licensed or qualified service person, if equipped.
• Do not strike or slam shut the appliance glass door, if equipped.
• Only doors / optional fronts certified with the appliance are to be installed on the appliance.
• Keep the packaging material out of reach of children and dispose of the material in a safe manner. As
with all plastic bags, these are not toys and should be kept away from children and infants.
• Carbon or soot should not occur in a vent free appliance as it can distribute into the living area of your
home. If you notice any signs of carbon or soot, immediately turn off your appliance and arrange to have
it serviced by a qualified technician before operating it again.
• If equipped, the screen must be in place (closed) when the appliance is in operation.
• When equipped with pressure relief doors, they must be kept closed while the appliance is operating
to prevent exhaust fumes containing carbon monoxide, from entering into the home. Temperatures of
the exhaust escaping through these openings can also cause the surrounding combustible materials to
overheat and catch fire.
• Carbon monoxide poisoning may lead to death; early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the
flu, with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the appliance may not be working
properly. Get fresh air at once! Have appliance serviced. Some people; pregnant women, persons with
heart or lung disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, those at high altitudes are more
affected by carbon monoxide than others. Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean
may result in sooting and property damage.
• As with any combustion appliance, we recommend having your appliance regularly inspected and
serviced as well as having a Carbon Monoxide Detector installed in the same area to defend you and
your family against Carbon Monoxide (not applicable for outdoor appliances).
• Ensure clearances to combustibles are maintained when building a mantel or shelves above the
appliance. Elevated temperatures on the wall or in the air above the appliance can cause melting,
discolouration or damage to decorations, a TV or other electronic components.
• For appliances equipped with a safety barrier; if the barrier becomes damaged, the barrier
shall be replaced with the manufacturer’s barrier for this appliance.
• Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. It is imperative that control
compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
• For outdoor products only: this appliance must not be installed indoors or within any structure that
prevents or inhibits the exhaust gases from dissipating in the outside atmosphere.
• If applicable, the millivolt version of this appliance uses and requires a fast acting thermocouple. Replace
only with a fast acting thermocouple supplied by Wolf Steel Ltd.
