•
This heater must not be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could come into contact with it.
In some cases curtains may need restraining. Refer to page 5 and page 6 for additional safety consideration.
•
Mantles and surrounds can be added to compliment the design provided that they conform to the clearances
shown in the diagrams below.
•
The minimum clearance from the edge of the appliance is 400 mm. The depth of the mantle/surrounds at the
minimum clearance may not exceed 150 mm.
•
An additional 100 mm of clearance is required for every extra 50 mm of mantle depth, i.e. for a 200 mm deep
mantle the clearance is 500 mm (as shown below).
