INSTALLATION INFORMATION
FINISHING MATERIAL
NOTE: Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control, wall switch, and optional fan) must be done prior to final finishing to avoid costly reconstruction.
WARNING
Never obstruct or modify the air inlet or outlet grills (louvers). This may create a fire hazard.
Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel, or other materials with a UL fire rating of Zero) may be used to cover the black surface of the appliance. A 300°F minimum adhesive may be used to attach facing materials to the black surface. If joints between the finished wall and the fireplace surround are sealed, a 300°F minimum sealant material (General Electric RTV103 or equivalent) must be used.
WARNING
Read all instructions completely and thoroughly before attempting installation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life. Operation of improperly installed and maintained venting system could result in serious injury, property damage or loss of life.
NOTICE
Failure to follow these instructions will void the warranty.
