DETAILED INSTALLATION STEPS

The appliance is shipped with all gas controls
and components installed and pre-wired. Re-
move the shipping carton, exposing the front
glass door. Remove the top and bottom louvered
control panel per instructions on Page 27 (see
Control Compartment Access / Louver Panel
Instructions). Remove the cardboard from
underneath the pressure relief plates, in area
behind top louver panel (see Figure 10). Open
the two latches (located under the fi rebox fl oor)
securing the glass door. Remove the door by
tilting it outward at the bottom and lifting it up.
Set the door aside protecting it from inadvertent
damage. See Figure 53 on Page 30.

Step 11. (Page 31) Install the hood.

Step 1. FRAMING

Frame these appliances as illustrated in Figure
13 on Page 11, unless the appliance is to be
installed in a corner. See Figure 14 on Page
12 for corner framing installations. All framing
details must allow for a minimum clearance to
combustible framing members as shown in
Table 8 on Page 9.
If the appliance is to be elevated above fl oor
level, a solid continuous platform must be
constructed.
Headers may be in direct contact with the
appliance top spacers but must not be sup-
ported by them or notched to fi t around them.
All construction above the appliance must be
self supporting. DO NOT use the appliance for
structural support.
The fi replace should be secured to the side framing
members using the unit's nailing fl anges - one top
and bottom on each side of the fi replace front. See
Figure 11. Use 8d nails or their equivalent.

STEP 2. ROUTING GAS LINE

Route a 1/2" (13 mm) gas line along the inside
of the right side framing as shown in Figure
12. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and
made of materials that are in strict accordance
with local codes and regulations. All appliances
are factory-equipped with a fl exible gas line
connector and 1/2 inch shutoff valve. (See
Step 6 on Page 26).
