Installing Spill Switch and Baffle assembly
1.
Locate the baffle assy with two wires. Center it with the
spill switch sensor pointed toward the room (out of the
fireplace). Run the spill switch wires out of the top hole in
the front right side of the fireplace (Fig. 19-3).
2.
Use six (6) drywalls screws to fasten it in place on the
front-most part of the firebox ceiling as shown through
the six (6) predrilled holes.
3.
Attach the trim plates to the left and right side of the baffle
with the sheet metal screws so that the edges are flush
with the firebrick.
4.
Repeat this procedure for the baffle assembly (with one
wire), on the opposite side of the fireplace.
Important:
These baffle assemblies and only the
supplied assemblies (with spill switches)
must be properly installed for the safe
operation of this gas fireplace.

Connect the spill switch wires to the valve assembly. The
valve assembly has two open brown wires (male and
female) for the spill switch wires connection. The
short
spill switch wire is to be routed across and into the top
hole on the opposite side of the fireplace. Connect the
wire to the opposite baffle assembly.
