9. Install the rear fireback. Insert the fireback, bottom first, into the fireplace. Carefully set the bottom of the
fireback on the shelf bracket installed in step #5. Once the entire fireback is resting on the shelf bracket,
tilt the fireback parallel to the back of the firebox and center it side to side. Reinstall the rear fireback clips
to secure the fireback in place.
10. Install one of the side firebacks. Insert the fireback tilted toward the center of the fireplace. Carefully set
the bottom of the fireback in the gap between the wall of the firebox and the media tray (the side firebacks
sit directly on the floor of the firebox). Tilt the fireback parallel to the side of the firebox and push it
backward. Reinstall the fireback clips to secure the fireback in place.
11. Repeat the same step with the other side fireback.
12. Restore the fireplace to the correct configuration (see manual for details).
