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.

1. Install and use heater with care. Follow

all local ordinances and codes. In the ab-

sence of local ordinances and codes, refer

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.

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.
