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.
