INSTALLATION
The fireplace must not be used until it is securely fastened to the wall. When choosing a location for your
electric fireplace, ensure that the general instructions are followed. For best results, install the electric fireplace
away from direct sunlight and dust.
Handling and Unpacking
• The installation should be carried out by two adults to avoid injury or damage. If for any reason it is consid-
ered too heavy, please obtain assistance.
• When lifting the fireplace, always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back. Avoid twisting
at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.

ward or sideways while handling the heater.
• Always grip the heater with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.
• Always keep the heater as close to the body as possible. This will minimize the cantilever action.
• Use gloves to provide additional grip.
• Unpack the package and lift the product gently out of the box, put it on a flat surface with the front panel
facing up.
