Should deterioration of parts occur to the degree of non-performance (rusted
through or burnt through) within the duration of the warranted coverage, a
replacement part will be provided. The replacement component is the sole
responsibility of NAPOLEON defined by this Limited Warranty; in no event will
NAPOLEON be responsible for installation, labor or any other costs or expenses
related to the re-installation of a warranted part, for any incidental,
consequential, or indirect damages or for any transportation charges, labor costs
or export duties.
This Limited Warranty is provided in addition to any rights afforded to you by local
laws. Accordingly, this Limited Warranty imposes no obligation upon NAPOLEON
to keep parts in stock. Based on the availability of parts, NAPOLEON may at its
discretion discharge all obligations by providing a customer a prorated credit
towards a new product. After the first year, with respect to this Limited Warranty
NAPOLEON may, at its discretion, fully discharge all obligations with respect to
this warranty by refunding to the original warranted purchaser the wholesale price
of any warranted but defective part(s).
The bill of sale or copy will be required together with a serial number and a model
number when making any warranty claims from NAPOLEON.
NAPOLEON reserves the right to have its representative inspect any product or part
prior to honoring any warranty claim. You must contact NAPOLEON Customer Service
or an authorized NAPOLEON dealer to obtain the benefit of the warranty coverage.

Napoleon President’s 3 Year Limited Warranty
NAPOLEON products are designed with superior components and materials, and are assembled by trained
craftsmen who take great pride in their work. This product has been thoroughly inspected by a qualified
technician before packaging and shipping to ensure that you, the customer, receive the quality product you
expect from NAPOLEON.
NAPOLEON warrants that components in your new NAPOLEON product will be free from defects in material and
workmanship from the date of purchase, for the following period:
* Conditions and Limitations
This Limited Warranty creates a warranty period as specified in the
aforementioned table, for any product purchased through an authorized NAPOLEON
dealer, and entitles the original purchaser to the specified coverage in respect of
any component replaced within the warranty period, either by NAPOLEON or an
authorized NAPOLEON dealer, to replace a component of such product that has
failed in normal private use as a result of a manufacturing defect. The “50% off”
indicated in the table means the component is made available to the purchaser at
a 50% discount off the regular retail price of the component for the period
indicated. This Limited Warranty does not cover accessories or bonus items.
For greater certainty, “normal private use” of a product means that the product:
has been installed by a licensed, authorized service technician or contractor, in
accordance with the installation instructions included with the product and all
local and national building and fire codes; has been properly maintained; and has
not been used as a communal amenity or in a commercial application.
Similarly, “failure” does not include: over-firing, blow outs caused by
environmental conditions such as strong winds or inadequate ventilation,
scratches, dents, corrosion, deterioration of painted and plated finishes,
discoloration caused by heat, abrasive or chemical cleaners or UV exposure,
chipping of porcelain enameled parts, or damages caused by misuse, accident,
hail, grease fires, lack of maintenance, hostile environments such as salt or
chlorine, alterations, abuse, neglect or parts installed from other manufacturers.

This gas appliance was tested and listed to Canadian and American Naonal Standards, ANSI Z21.97-2014/
CSA 2.41-2014 “Outdoor Decorave Gas Appliances” and CGA 2.17-M91 (R2014) “Gas-Fired Appliances for
Use at High Altudes” by OMNI-Test Laboratories. When an appliance is for connecon to a xed piping
system, the installaon must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the Naonal
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Internaonal Fuel Gas Code, Natural Gas and Propane Installaon Code,
CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2, as applicable.
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence
of local codes, with the Naonal Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
This appliance should be installed and serviced by a qualied installer to conform with local codes.
Installaon pracces vary from region to region and it is important to know the specics that apply to your
area, for example: in Massachuses State:
• The appliance o valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The exible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
The appliance and its individual shut o valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure tesng of the system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa). This appliance
must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut o valve during any
pressure tesng of the gas supply piping system at
test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).
• Always keep the appliance area clear and free
from combusble materials, gasoline, and
other ammable vapours and liquids.
• Do not locate appliance where it can get
excessively wet.
• Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualied
service technician to inspect the unit and to

Locang Your Outdoor Appliance
It is important when selecng a locaon for your appliance to ensure clearances to adjacent combusbles
are met. This appliance is intended for installaon on an outdoor pao or in your yard. It is highly
recommended that this appliance be installed in a sheltered area (following the guidelines outlined
below). Direct wind will cause an errac ame and possible pilot or main burner outage. An errac
ame could also lead to excessive carboning (black soot), this condion is not a safety issue but is visually
undesirable.
: When choosing a locaon for your appliance, care must be taken to avoid areas where excessive
moisture or running water may be a problem.
Any enclosure (shelter) in which the appliance is used must comply with one of the following:
With walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level and no overhead cover.
Within a paral enclosure which includes an overhead cover and no more than two sidewalls. These
sidewalls may be parallel, as in a breezeway, or at right angles to each other.
Within a paral enclosure which includes an overhead cover and three sidewalls, as long as 30 percent or
more of the horizontal periphery of the enclosure is permanently open.
