FINISHING MATERIAL

NOTE: Any remote wiring (i.e. remote control and wall switch) must be done prior to final fin- ishing to avoid costly reconstruction.

WARNING

Never obstruct or modify the air inlet. 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 sur- round are sealed, a 300° F minimum sealant material (General Electric RTV 103 or equivalent) must be used.
