(120V, 60Hz, 1 Amp) (right side entrance)
• Properopeningsizeofreplacerequiredforinstallationof
thereplaceinsert.
Inplanningtheinstallationforthereplace,determinewhere
the unit is to be installed and whether optional accessories are
desired. Gas supply piping should also be planned at this time.
Thereplacecanbemountedonanyofthesesurfaces:
1. Aathardcombustibleornon-combustiblesurface.
2. A raised platform of combustible or non-combustible
material.
3. Fourcornersofthereplacesocontactismadeonallfour
perimeter edges on the bottom of the unit.
Ifthereplaceisinstalleddirectlyoncarpeting,tileorother
combustiblematerialotherthanwoodooring,itshouldbe
installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and
depth of the unit.
This unit is designed to be installed in a zero-clearance
