①
Prior to the first use of the
fireplace verify the following:
• Are the circuit breakers for the
unit on?
• Are the light bulbs in your
fireplace loose? (To check, follow
the instructions for replacing the
light bulbs under the Maintenance
section of this manual.)
②
The heater on your fireplace
may emit a slight, harmless odor
when first used. This odor is a
normal condition caused by the
initial heating of internal heater
parts and will not occur again.
③
The information regarding the
model of your fireplace can be
found on the rating plate located
on the front of the unit.
!
NOTE 1: a 15 amp, 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 fuse blows on a
regular basis when the heater is
operating. additional appliances
on the same circuit may exceed
the current rating of the circuit
breaker.
WARNINg: Ensure the power
cord is not installed so that it is
pinched or against a sharp edge
and ensure that the power cord is
stored or secured to avoid tripping
or snagging to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock or injury to
persons.
Construction and electrical
outlet wiring must comply with
local building codes and other
applicable regulations to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock and
injury to persons.
Do not attempt to wire your own
new outlets or circuits. To reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock or
injury to persons, always use a
licensed electrician.
