PREPARATION

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
This fireplace is for use on 120 volts circuit and has a grounded plug that looks like the one illustrated on
Figure 1. See Figure 1 for grounding instruction. An adapter as shown at C is available for connecting
three-blade grounding type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding plug extending from the
adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter
should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock which may cause serious injury, death or property damage. Check with
qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product. If it will not fit
the outlet; have a proper outlet installed by qualified electrician.
Note:
A 15amp, 120 volt circuit is required. A dedicated circuit is preferred but not essential
in all cases. A dedicated circuit will be required if, after installation, the circuit breaker
trips or a fuse blows on a regular basis when the fireplace is operating. Additional
appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current rating of the circuit breaker
