CAUTION:
Two people may be
required for various steps of this
procedure.
1.
Prepare a wall with a framed
opening of 49 in. (124.5 cm) wide
x 18½ in. (47 cm) high (Figure 11).
!
NOTE:
The sizing has allowed for
1/4” (6.4 mm) around the fireplace
insert for ease of installation. This
fireplace does not require any
additional venting.
2. Choose your method of supplying
power to the unit:
• Plug-in (you may run the power
cord out of the framed wall
opening to an existing outlet or
install an outlet on a nearby wall
stud within the wall).
•
Hardwire the fireplace - follow the
hardwiring instructions on page 9.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to wire
your own new outlets or circuits.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock or injury to persons, always
use a licensed electrician.
WARNING:
Ensure that the circuit
on which the fireplace is to be
installed has the power cut off at
the service panel until installation
is complete.
