WARNINg: Disconnect power before attempting any

Mounting - The fireplace may be mounted in one of 3 meth-

Flush Mount (completely in the wall)

Identify the type of mounting and follow the appropriate

instructions in the following pages. (See Figure 6 for the

top and side profile view with measurements of the back

panel).

CAUTION: Two people will be required for removal

and re-installation of the fireplace. The unit is approx. 50

5/16”w x 19 1/2”h x 7”d. Weight is approximately 75lbs.

CAUTION: To prevent injury or damage, turn off the

breaker in your electrical panel prior to attempting to re-

move this unit off the wall.

!

NOTE: If fireplace is hard wired directly to the electri-

cal panel, and there is not enough slack in the wires within

the wall to reach your work area, remove the electrical junc-

tion box cover located on the bottom right by removing the

1 screw on the front of the cover. Lift the cover off and set

aside. Disconnect the 3 wire connectors connected to the

CAUTION: Follow “Preparation for Service” instructions

before proceeding.

Partially unscrew the rear mounting screws that are

holding the fireplace to the wall along the back panel

of the unit. Support the weight of the fireplace when

loosening the screws so unit does not fall off the wall

unexpectedly.

openings were used for positioning the fireplace so that

it can be re-placed in the same location when service is

complete. (Figure 7)

larger part of the keyhole openings and pull forward.

Carefully lay the unit down on a solid flat surface with

the front of the unit facing up.
