A Unpacking the Unit

WARNING! Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect and to replace any part of the electri- cal system if necessary.

Carefully remove packaging from the unit. The front screen is held in place with four Phillips head screws. To remove the screen, extract the screws. Grasp the screen frame and pull out.

B. Locating Your Electric Fireplace

Your new electric fireplace may be installed virtually anywhere in your home. However, when choosing a location ensure that the general instructions are followed. For best results, install out of direct sunlight.

Power supply service must be either completed or placed within the heater prior to finishing to avoid reconstruction.

Protective cover may stay on during framing, but must be removed before final finishing. Once final finishing has been completed, the protective cover can be used to protect the heater until final installation is complete.

F. Hardwire Electrical Connections

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

Note: All wiring must be completed prior to finishing the unit.

For supply connections use No. 14 AWG or larger wires. Use copper wire only. Connect only to a 15 AMP branch circuit. A dedicated circuit is recommended as other appliances on the circuit may cause the breaker to trip or fuse to blow when the heater is operating.

•Remove the screws securing the junction block cover.

•Wire to a properly grounded, 120 volt, 60 Hz, 15 AMP circuit

•Ensure all junction block connections are tight.

•Replace the cover and retaining screws.

•Plug in the IEC-320-C14 power plug to the IEC-320-C13 power inlet located on the upper right side of the unit.

•All components and wiring may be inspected by removing the top inter-panel through the fireplace front opening.
