ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

A 15 AMP, 120 Volt, 60Hz circuit with a properly grounded outlet is required. Preferably, the heater will be on a dedicated circuit. Other appliances on the same circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse to blow when the heater is in operation. The unit comes standard with a 6' (1828mm) long three wire cord exiting from the rear of the fireplace. Plan the installation to avoid the use of an extension cord. If an extension cord must be used, it must be a minimum 16 AWG three wire with grounding type plug connector and rated no less than 1900 Watts.

WARNING: Electrical

outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and all other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury.

WARNING: Do not use this fireplace if any part of it has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the fireplace and replace any part of the electrical system if necessary.
