This mantel clearance is not needed if using a GHB802B or GHB38 hearth base.

Before installing mantel to heater, the heater must be mounted on the optional hearth base. See Mounting Heater on Optional Hearth Base, page 17. Follow the steps below to install mantel to heater.

1.Place mantel over heater (see Figure 22). Back side of mantel should be even with back of hearth base. Mantel front should not extend past brass trim around heater cabinet.
