Pre-Installation
PLANNING INSTALLATION
Before you begin assembly, locate the instructions and hardware. Compare all parts with the Hardware Included and Package Contents lists. Be sure you have all the parts and can identify them. A helping hand is always good. Assemble your fireplace with an adult assistant if possible. Some pieces are heavy and will need to be held by a helper. Assembly time will take approximately 5-20 minutes.
Before assembly, use scissors to unwrap the parts from the packaging. Do not use a box cutter or exacto-knife, as you may cut into the heater pieces inside the box and damage the finish. Check for the red hardware bag located inside the packaging, taped to the top of the box. Do not discard any pieces. Use an appropriate screwdriver to insert and tighten all screws.
❗ CAUTION: This carton includes a GLASS panel! Always use extreme caution when handling glass. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or property damage.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
⚠️ WARNING: Electrical outlet wiring must comply with local building codes and other applicable regulations to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons.
⚠️ WARNING: Do not use this fireplace if any part of it has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the fireplace and replace any part of the electrical system which has been under water.
A 15 Amp, 120 Volt, 60 Hz circuit with a properly grounded outlet is required to operate this appliance. Preferably, the appliance will be on a dedicated circuit, as other appliances on the same circuit may cause the circuit breaker to trip or the fuse to blow when the fireplace is in operation. The unit comes standard with a 6 ft (1.8 m) long 3-wire cord, exiting out the back of the fireplace. Plan the installation to avoid the use of an extension cord. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use with an extension cord or relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This heater is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug as shown at (A) in Figure 1. An adapter as shown at (C) is available for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding lug 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.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This remote control requires 1 Lithium Coin Cell Battery (size CR2025), which is included.
❗ CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
