When using electrical appliances,
basic precautions should always
be followed to reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock, and injury to
persons, including the following:
①
Read all instructions before
using the Convex In-stud
fireplace.

The heater is hot when in use.
To avoid burns, do not let bare
skin touch hot surfaces. The trim
around the heater outlet becomes
hot during heater operation.

as furniture, pillows, bedding,
papers, clothes, and curtains at
least three (3) feet (0.9 m) from
the front of the unit.
③
Extreme caution is necessary
when any heater is used by or near
children and whenever the unit is
left operating and unattended.
④
always disconnect power to
the fireplace when not in use for
extended period of time.
⑤
Do not operate with a
damaged cord or plug (for units
supplied with a cord), or if the
heater has malfunctioned, or if
the fireplace has been dropped or
damaged in any manner. Contact
