11.4 minimum combustible mantel clearances
WARNING
!
•
Risk of fire. Maintain all specified air space clearances to combustibles. Failure to comply with these
instructions may cause a fire or cause the appliance to overheat. Ensure all clearances (i.e. back, side, top,
vent, mantel, front, etc.) are clearly maintained.
•
When using paint or lacquer to finish the mantel, the paint or lacquer must be heat resistant to prevent
discolouration.
•
Installing a television or other electronics above the appliance may cause discolouration, melting, or damage
to the electronics. Use clearances as guidelines and refer to your TV manufacturer's instructions for further
information.
Combustible mantel clearance can vary according to the mantel depth. Use the graph to determine the clearance
needed.
