CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES

The clearances listed are MINIMUM distances. Measure the
clearance to both the appliance and the chimney connector.
The farthest distance is correct if the two clearances do
not coincide.
 For example, if the appliance is set as indicated
in one of the diagrams but the connector is too close, move the
stove until the correct clearance to the connector is obtained.

This appliance may be installed only with the clearances as
shown in the situations pictured. Do not combine clearances
from one type of installation with another in order to
achieve closer clearances.

This unit can be installed on a solid combustible surface like
a wood floor. This unit can also be installed directly on
carpeting or vinyl when the bottom pedestal cover plate
(provided with unit ) is installed.
