Dimplex EWM-COPPER - Manual (Page 5)

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 the
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.
WARNING
Remove the protective film before use. Operation of the unit without complete removal of the
protective film may increase the risk of fire and/or product damage or discoloration.
WARNING
The supplied mounting bracket is designed for use with Dimplex wall mounted fireplaces only.
Improper use, or use for purposes other than intended, may cause damage or injury.
WALL MOUNTED ELECTRIC FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
WARNING
Failure to install the wall mounted electric fireplace as instructed below may result in damage
to the equipment and or may expose the user to the risk of fire, serious injury, illness or death.
WARNING
The wall mounted electric fireplace requires the wall mounting bracket screws to be installed
into a minimum of one wall stud. (FIGURE 3 & 4)
1. Select the desired location near an electrical outlet.
2. Ensure the front of the unit when installed is at least 3 feet (0.9m) from combustible
materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes, and curtains.
3. Mount the unit on the wall only with the bottom above an electrical outlet or a minimum of
12” (mounting bracket 34 3/4”) above the floor. Access to the electrical outlet must be
maintained. Ensure the installation meets the national and state/provincial electrical
codes.
NOTE: It is recommended that the bottom of the unit not be mounted higher than 30” from
the ground (mounting bracket no higher than 52 3/4”).
4. To mount the unit so that the wall outlet is hidden, mount the bracket 19” above the top of
the outlet (FIGURE A).
