content;
• Never use heater in immediate proximity of flammable
materials (the minimum distance must be 2 m);
• Make sure fire fighting equipment is readily available;
• Make sure sufficient fresh outside air is provided according to
the heater requirements. Direct combustion heaters should
only be used in well vented areas in order to avoid carbon
monoxide poisoning;
• the generator is installed near a chimney to take away the
fumes (see the paragraph "FUMES FLUE POSITIONING
DIAGRAM") and connected to an electrical switchboard;
• Never block air inlet (rear) or air outlet (front);
