NOTE: Kerosene should only be stored in a blue container that is clearly marked "kerosene".
Never store kerosene in a red container. Red is associated with gasoline.
• NEVER store kerosene in the living space. Kerosene should be stored in a well ventilated area out-
side the living area.
• NEVER use fuel such as gasoline, benzene, alcohol, white gas, camp stove fuel, paint thinners, or
other oil compounds in this heater (THESE ARE VOLATILE FUELS THAT CAN CAUSE A FIRE OR
EXPLOSION).
• NEVER store kerosene in direct sunlight or near a source of heat.
• NEVER use kerosene that has been stored from one season to the next. Kerosene deteriorates over
time. OLD KEROSENE WILL NOT BURN PROPERLY IN THIS HEATER.
NEVER LEAVE HEATER UNATTENDED WHILE BURNING OR WHILE CONNECTED TO A FUEL
SOURCE.
