IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture
to the air. Although this is beneficial, installing
heater in rooms without enough ventilation air
may cause mildew to form too much mois-
ture. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation,
pages 7.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Be sure your gas supply is right for your heat-
er. Otherwise, call dealer where you bought
the heater for proper type heater.

GAS SELECTION
You will notice a color coded
plunger on the inside of the regu-
lator. This is normal. When the in-
let connection fitting is inserted
and tightened, this plunger will
be pushed back by the fitting
making all of the adjustments
for the gas being supplied. DO
NOT REMOVE THE PLUNGER.
The regulator will not work.
The inlet regulator is color coded
for identification of the correct
gas type. Blue is for propane (LP
gas) and yellow is for natural gas.
