SAFETY
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Some people
are more affected by carbon monoxide than
others. Early signs of carbon monoxide poi-
soning resemble the flu, with headaches, diz-
ziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs,
the heater may not be working properly. Get
fresh air at once! Check for proper ventilation
and have heater serviced.
Propane Gas: Propane gas is odorless. An
odor-making agent is added to propane gas.
The odor helps you detect a propane gas
leak. However, the odor added to propane
gas can fade. Propane gas may be present
even though no odor exists.
Make certain you read and understand all
warnings. Keep this manual for reference. It
is your guide to safe and proper operation of
this heater.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The Fuel System: The hose/regulator assem-
bly attaches to the propane gas supply. The
propane gas moves through the automatic
control valve, burn rate adjustment valve and
out the injector.
The Air System: The motor turns the fan. The
fan pushes air into and around the combustion
chamber. This air is heated and provides a
stream of clean, hot air.
The Ignition System: The high voltage ignitor
sends voltage to the spark ignitor. The spark
ignitor ignites the fuel and air mixture.
The Safety Control System: This system
causes the heater to shut down if the flame
goes out. The motor will continue to run, but
no heat is produced.

No podemos prever todos los usos que se
les pueden dar a nuestros calentadores.
CONSULTE A LA AUTORIDAD LOCAL
DE SEGURIDAD CONTRA INCENDIOS SI
TIENE PREGUNTAS ACERCA DEL USO DE
CALENTADORES.
Otras normas rigen el uso de gases combus-
tibles y productos que producen calor para
usos especícos. Las autoridades locales
pueden informarle acerca de éstas.
PELIGRO: ¡La intoxicación
con monóxido de carbono puede
resultar en la muerte!
Intoxicación con monóxido de carbono:
algunas personas sufren mayores efectos del
monóxido de carbono que otras. Los prime-
ros signos de intoxicación con monóxido de
carbono se asemejan a los de la gripe, con
dolor de cabeza, mareo y/o náusea. Si usted
presenta estos síntomas, es posible que el
calentador no esté funcionando correctamen-
te. ¡Respire aire fresco inmediatamente!
Compruebe que haya ventilación adecuada
y haga que reparen el calentador.
Gas propano: el gas propano es inodoro. Al
gas propano se le agrega un agente oloroso.
El olor le ayuda a detectar las fugas de gas
propano. Sin embargo, el olor que se añade al
gas propano puede desvanecerse. Es posible
que haya gas propano presente aunque no
haya ningún olor.
Asegúrese de leer y comprender todas las
advertencias. Conserve este manual para re-
ferencia. Es su guía para la operación segura
y correcta de este calentador.
1. Instale y use el calentador cuidado-
samente. Siga las ordenanzas y los
códigos locales. A falta de ordenanzas
y códigos locales, consulte la Norma de
almacenamiento y manejo de gas licuado
de petróleo, ANSI/NFPA 58 y el Código
de instalación de gas natural y propano,
CAN/CGA B149.1. Ésta proporciona ins-
trucciones acerca del almacenamiento y
manejo seguro del propano.
2. Use solamente la tensión eléctrica y la
frecuencia especicados en la placa del
modelo. Las conexiones eléctricas y de
tierra del calentador deberán estar de
acuerdo al Código eléctrico nacional,
ANSI/NFPA 70 o al Código eléctrico ca-
nadiense, parte 1.

to contiene y/o genera químicos
que el Estado de California
reconoce que causan cáncer,

ción y explosión. Mantenga los

podrían contener combustibles
volátiles o transportados por
aire o productos como gasolina,
solventes, diluyente de pintura,
partículas de polvo o químicos
desconocidos.

en residencias ni en vehículos
recreativos.
Para uso con gas propano so-
lamente

como calentador para construcción de acuer-
do con el estándar ANSI Z83.7•CGA2.2.14.

marle acerca de éstas. El propósito principal
de los calentadores para construcción es
proporcionar calefacción temporal a edicios
en construcción, modicación o reparación.
Cuando se usa correctamente, el calentador
proporciona calefacción económica y segura.
