To remove the pre-installed baffles, insert a screwdriver into a slot of the baffle and carefully
remove each one .
8.
Separate the single baffles provided by bending the strip until each baffle breaks off .
9.
To insert the baffles, use a screwdriver to carefully pry open the flame output slot on the top
cover . Install the baffle by putting the side with the two tabs down, and inserting it so that the lip
on the top cover goes over the baffle

If installed correctly, the baffle should not be able
to slide within the flame output slot .

Media Arrangement
The decoration of the Faber e-SliM Linear models are delivered separately in a box. This box con-
tains the logs + decoration and a wood set card how to decorate the models.
! NOTE:
It is not recommended to position the driftwood pieces across the flame output slot. If
this configuration is desired, use the provided single baffles to block the mist beneath the log(s) to
prevent condensation.
It is possible to use custom media ornaments to decorate your fireplace. The custom media must
fit easily without scratching the glass or bowing the media bed, and must not be composed of sand
or liquid, which could interfere with the safety of the fireplace .
