Installing Blower Accessory

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and danger- ous operation.

CAUTION: Verify proper op- eration after servicing.

Note: If you are using a mantel with your fireplace, use the following instructions. If your fireplace is built-in, see For Built-In Installation, page 15.

1.Install snap bushings found in blower kit into hole in left side of outer casing and into one of the holes in rear of remote/blower bracket.

2.Make sure the wire harness is firmly connected to the terminals on the blower bracket assembly.

3.Note the wire locations on back of AUTO/ OFF/ON switch. The terminals on back of switch are numbered 1, 2, and 3. Carefully remove red wire from terminal 3 and blue wire from terminal 1. Black wire can remain on middle terminal 2 (see Figure 15).

4.Carefully disconnect green and white wires at their insulated connectors (see Figure 16).

5.In top of the fireplace cabinet, locate the four mounting holes on the outer casing. Align these four holes with those on the blower bracket assembly. Attach blower bracket as- sembly to the outer casing with 4 #10 screws provided (see Figure 15).

6.Route the wire harness through the hole in left side of baffle and between firebox wrapper and outer casing.

7.Insert the 4 wire harnesses from behind the remote/blower bracket through hole in rear of bracket with bushing and through the left rectan- gular hole to front of fireplace (see Figure 15).

8.Reconnect red wire to switch position 3. Reconnect blue wire to switch position 1. Reconnect green and white wires.

9.Install the switch plate on the remote/blower bracket with 2 #10 screws provided (see Figure 17). Route power cord out of the cabinet by inserting it through the bushing on the outer casing (see Figure 15). Plug fan kit into 120- Volt grounded power supply and test operation. Note: When switch is in the AUTO position, the fan will start after the fireplace has run for a few moments. The fan will continue to run for several moments after the fireplace has been turned off. When switch is in the ON position, the fan will run until turned to OFF.

10.Reinstall upper louver beginning with bottom screws (see Figure 12, page 12). Close lower louver door.
