// 5.0 SITE REQUIREMENTS
It should be noted that the appliance creates warm convected air
currents. These currents move heat from the room surroundings to,
and up the wall surfaces adjacent to the heater.
If the appliance is to be secure on a dry wall or a timber framed
construction then the integrity and ability of the wall to secure the
appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances
that any vapour barrier and/or structural members of the house
frame are not damaged.
If you are unsure of the ability of the wall to secure the appliance and/
or which type of wall fixing to use, you should take professional advice
and obtain the correct fixings. Alternatively, find a more suitable wall
location.
• DO NOT run the supply cable under carpets.
• DO NOT site in a position where curtains or drapes could cover
the appliance, or other soft materials could cover e.g.
below a coat rack.
• DO NOT site behind an opening door where mechanical impact/
damage could occur.
• DO NOT site where the supply cable would become a trip hazard.
• DO NOT sit, stand or forcefully pull on the appliance.
• DO NOT obstruct, cover or force items into the openings.
• DO NOT use the heater to dry clothes.
• DO NOT site/use in an outdoor location(s).
It is important that the following clearances are maintained from the
appliance to combustible materials. These clearances are dependent
on the securing location as defined on the following pages.
// 6.0 CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
The minimum distance to the front of the appliance
is three feet.
There are no clearances for above or to the side of
the appliance, apart from being clear of curtains and
drapes for a flush wall installation.
If the stud wall immediately above the heater of
the appliance protrudes in front of the appliance
rather then finishing flush, then the over hanging
section of the installation must be made from a non-
combustible material, such as calcium silicate.

// 7.0 UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE
Before starting the installation of this fireplace, please read
the following:
1) The installation should be carried out by two adults
to avoid injury or damage. If for any reason it is
considered too heavy, please obtain assistance.
2) When lifting the electric appliance, always keep
your back straight. Bend your legs and not your
back. Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to
reposition your feet.
3) Avoid upper body and top heavy bending. Always
bend from the knees rather than the waist. Do
not lean forward or sideways while handling the
appliance.
4) Always grip the appliance with the palm of the
hand – do not use the tips of fingers for support.
5) Always keep the appliance as close to the body as
possible. This will minimize the cantilever action.
6) Use gloves to provide additional grip.
7) Unpack the package and lift the appliance gently
out of the box. Put it on a flat surface with the
front panel facing forward.
