NOTE

The fireplace insert comes completely assembled and wired. Some tools may be required to prepare the site and assembly/install the trim.

The dimensions of the fireplace insert are 762mm wide X 641mm high X 286mm deep. (FIGURE 1) You should allow 6mm around the fireplace insert for ease of installation.

This fireplace does not require any venting.

CAUTION

Clearance for air circulation beneath the fireplace insert is provided by three rubber feet (FIGURE 1).

DO NOT INSTALL THE FIREPLACE INSERT DIRECTLY ON CARPET OR SIMILAR SURFACES WHICH MAY RESTRICT AIR CIRCULATION. If installing the fireplace in a carpeted area, place a one-piece, solid, flat surface under the fireplace insert. Ensure that all three of the insert’s feet rest securely on this surface.

EXISTING FIREPLACE INSTALLATION

1.Seal all drafts and vents with non-fibrous insulation materials to prevent chimney debris from falling into the fireplace insert. Do not install into an existing fireplace that is prone to leaks or dampness.

2.Cap the top of the chimney flue to prevent rain from entering.

3.Plan your electrical power supply: (refer to NOTE 1)

4.The power cord can run along the front of the hearth to an outlet near the fireplace (FIGURE 2).
