FITTING THE INSERT INTO THE FIREPLACE
Move the hearth insert up to the fireplace. Pass the mains
supply cable (depending on model) through the hole prepared in
the fireplace. Make sure that the looped mains cable, inside the
fireplace, allows the hearth insert to be moved easily (insertion
and removal for maintenance).
If an air connection is provided, connect the air supply line to the
combustion air collar.
Make sure that the mains cable is not trapped under the
appliance. Adjust the 4 levelling screws and fit the insert into
position.
BAFFLE PLATE
The hearth is fitted with a stainless steel and vermiculite
baffle. This baffle enables efficient heat exchange and helps
soot to be collected when the chimney is swept.
Users should familiarise themselves with how to fit and remove
the baffle plate. Do this several times before using the fireplace
for the first time.
1. Swivel the two holding catches in towards the hearth.
2. Lower the rear part of the baffle.
3. Take the baffle out of the hearth.
4. Fit the baffle back into the hearth.
5. Use the holding catches to lock the baffle to the hearth.

4. HEARTH INSTALLATION
Remove the 4 screws that hold the hearth to the pallet.
PREPARING THE EXISTING EMPLACEMENT
Remove any combustible or heat-degradable materials on or
inside the fireplace (floor, sides, back and top) (Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4,
Z5), depending on the chosen layout.
FLOOR
Make sure that the floor (Z3) can support the total load of the
hearth and the cladding. Otherwise, install a suitable device
(load distribution plate). To make maintenance easier, it is best
to lay tiles (for example) in the load area (Z5).
WALLS
Remove any coverings (wallpaper, panels, etc.) from the area of
the future fireplace. Depending on the material of the wall, apply
the recommended solutions.
CONNECTING THE FLUE PIPE
Remove the baffle. On the inside of the insert, connect the collar
on the appliance to the prepared flue pipe. Reattach the baffle to
the hearth.
FILLING IN THE GAPS AROUND THE INSERT
The space between the fireplace opening and the hearth
may be blocked. To protect the hearth, remove the door and
frame.
Depending on the style and type of stone, the space can be
closed by using stones or firebricks between the hearth
insert and the fireplace, with prefabricated refractory
materials and then sealed on site, or with refractory panels
(M0 class) cut to size.
Use ready-to-use refractory mortar or 2/3 sand and 1/3
refractory cement for the brick work.
Refit the frame and put the door back on the hearth.
CAUTION. When installing an insert, distribution of
hot air through ducts is prohibited. Do not open the
caps on the casing cover.
ATTENTION: Do not place combustible
objects and/or materials within 2m of the
glass.
TOP
In the area where the hood will be installed (Z4), remove any
non-M0 (non-combustible) materials and insulate with rigid
mineral wool.
EXTRACTING COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
If there is a flue pipe, check that the duct is compatible with the
hearth being installed, as well as the size of the duct so that it can
be marked. Check the condition of the flue (stability, seal, material
compatibility, section, etc.); (in France; NF-DTU 24.1). If the flue
is not compatible (old, cracked, clogged) it will be necessary to fit:
- a casing made of technically appropriate material,
- or a jacket
- or a new, adapted flue, made by a company that holds the
necessary permits.
