*To minimise the risk of cracking due to heat expansion the use of a 3 – piece back panel is recommended* 

 

The  back  panel of the surround must  have a 
cut-out  within  the  maximum  and  minimum 
dimensions as shown. 

 

Ensure that gas supply is suitably sited. 

 

A  non-combustible  hearth  must  be  provided 
beneath the appliance if the appliance is fitted 
at low level (less than 150mm from floor). The 
hearth  must  have  a  minimum  thickness  of 
12mm  and  the  perimeter  50mm  above  floor 
level. The hearth must extend the full width of 
the  appliance  and  must  project  forward  a 
minimum of 100mm in front of the appliance. 

 

Alternatively  the  appliance  may  be  fitted 
without  a  hearth  (Hole  in  the  Wall  type 
installations), 50mm min. from the floor to the 
base of appliance  

 

The minimum clearance from the hearth (base of appliance) to the underside of a combustible shelf should 
be determined using the shelf chart. 

 

Minimum  width  between  vertical  sides  of 
combustible surround should not be less than 800 
mm provided fire is central to the surround and 
sides  do  not  project  more  than  150  mm.  When 
vertical  side  forward  projection  is  increased  by 
12.5 mm add 50 mm to inside width of surround.  

 

Check with the supplier or manufacturer that the 
surround meets 150

0

C minimum rating (attention 

should especially be given to man made materials 
such as resin). 

 

When  installing  in  a  timber  framed  dwelling 
reference  must  be  made  to  the  specific 
installation  requirements  stated  in  Section  10 
Installing  The  Appliance  In  Timber  Framed 
Dwelling. 

 

SECTION NINE Preparing the Appliance for Installation (installation instructions) 

 

Carefully unpack the appliance from the carton and check the contents. 

 

Lift off the decorative trim, which is held by four magnets and put to one side. 

 

Undo the two nuts securing the fascia grill unit, to combustion chamber and lift off. 

 

Lay the appliance on its back ensuring suitable protection is provided for the carpet / floor. 

 

Remove the two cross head nuts securing the fret apron and remove the apron  

 

Remove the nuts from the top, bottom and sides of the glass frame and lift away carefully. 

 

With extreme care lift away the glass panel frame and put to one side in a safe place note the printing and 
ensure it is placed so that it is fitted correctly. 

 

Remove the refractory components from the inside of the appliance. 

 

The appliance is now ready for installation.
