CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THE APPLIANCE TO THE
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT THIS TIME.
Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and damages
that may occur due to improper installation or handling.
Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative surfaces of the
appliance, if any. After having selected the final mounting position of the appliance
taking into account the integrity of the wall the firebox of the appliance may be
secured to the wall.
To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that the strength of
both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient. The appliance should not be
installed until all wet plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has been
completed. Do not block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The wall onto
which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid
sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in
fire, damage or injury.
If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity brick
wall, or a solid wall, then the wall plugs and fixing screws provided may be used.
Depending on the condition of the wall it may be necessary to use additional fixings.
In this situation, any additional fixings and wallplugs should be of the same size and
type as the ones provided.
The wall where the appliance is to be
installed must be capable of long-
term support of the total load of the
appliance. Measures should also be
taken to ensure sufficient strength to
withstand the force of earthquakes,
vibration and other external forces.
Plasterboard alone is not considered
to be a structural material. It is not
recommended to rely on plaster-
board fixings alone to support the
weight of the appliance.
