DANGER
DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights, direct
sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures exceed 120
degrees F (49°C).
• Propane is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you
smell gas, leave the area immediately.
• Never install or remove propane tank while fireplace is lighted, near
flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while fireplace is hot to touch.
• This fireplace is red hot during use and can ignite flammables too
close to the burner. Keep flammables at least two feet from sides & eight
feet from top. Keep gasoline and other flammable liquids and vapors
well away from fireplace.
• The propane tank must always be stored outdoors in a well ventilated
space. Never store propane tank in an enclosed area (house, garage,
etc.). If fireplace is to be stored indoors, disconnect the propane tank for
outdoor storage.
• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This fireplace is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances
produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion process. This
product is designed to produce extremely minute, non-hazardous
amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance with all warn-
ings and instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the fireplace.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like symptoms,
watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You
can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symp-
toms are present during operation of this product get fresh air imme-
diately!
• For outdoor use only.
• Never use inside house, or other unventilated or enclosed areas.
This fireplace consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated
or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.
WARNING
WARNING
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible,
odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added to help detect
leaks and can be described as a ”rotten egg” smell. The odorant can
fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the
lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources including match-
es, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from
the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdraw.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with local ordi-
nances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not
in use.
• BURN HAZARD
• Never leave fireplace unattended when hot or in use.
• Keep out of reach of children.
CAUTION
• SERVICE SAFETY
• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Make sure propane tank valve out-
let is clean.
• Inspect hose before use. Replace if there is evidence of abrasion or wear.
• During set up, check all connections and fittings for leaks using soapy
water. Never use a flame.
• Use as a heating appliance only. Do not use for cooking. Never alter in any
way or use with any device or part not expressly approved by Coleman.
• Never burn wood or other fuels with this appliance.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65:
