MANTEL  LOCATION

When choosing a location for your new fireplace,

 ensure that the general instructions are followed. 

Also, for best effect, install the fireplace out of 

direct sunlight.

                   

                        Cold climate installation recommendation: 

                        when installing this unit against a 

                        non-insulated exterior wall or chase, it is

                        mandatory that the outer walls be insulated

                        to conform to applicable insulation codes.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

A 15 AMP, 120 Volt, 60 Hz circuit with a 

properly grounded outlet is required. Preferably, the

fireplace will be on a dedicated circuit as other 

appliances on the same circuit may cause the circuit

breaker to trip or the fuse to blow when the heater is

in operation. The unit comes standard with 6 feet 

(1.8 m) three wire cord, exiting from the rear of the

fireplace. Plan the installation to avoid the use of 

an extension cord. If an extension cord must be 

used, it must be a minimum 14 AWG ; three wires

with grounding type plug connector and rated 

not less than 1875 Watts. The cord shall not be

more than 20 feet (6 m) in length.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Voltage:         120VAC, 60Hz

Amps:            11.7 Amps

Watts:            1400 Watts

CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

Keep electrical cords, drapery, furniture and other 

combustibles at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front of the 

heater and away from the sides.

CLEANING TRIM

Clean the metal trim using a soft cloth, slightly 

dampened with citrus oil based product and buff with 

a clean soft cloth. DO NOT use brass polish or 

household cleaners as these products will damage 

the metal trim. Citrus oil based products can be 

obtained at supermarkets or hardware stores.

MAINTENANCE

The motors used on the fan and the flame generator assembly are pre-lubricated for extended bearing life and 

require no further lubrication. However, periodic cleaning/vacuuming of the fan/heater unit is recommended. 

Make sure the unit is turned OFF and unplugged whenever you are cleaning the heater or fireplace.

WARNING: Make sure the power is turned off before proceeding. Any electrical repairs or 

rewiring of this unit should be carried out by a licensed electrician in accordance with 

national and local codes.

If repairing or replacing any electrical component or wiring, the original wire routing, color 

coding and securing locations must be followed.

WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable

 regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock and injury to persons.

WARNING: Do not use this fireplace if any part of it has been under water. Immediately call a 

qualified service technician to inspect the fireplace and replace any part of the electrical system.

Warning: Disconnect power before attempting any maintenance or cleaning to reduce the risk

 of fire, electrical shock or personal injury.
