Page 21 During the development of the Q4, we took into consideration that in some installations TV’s or flat panel monitors may be located above the mantel. Although we can not anticipate every possible installation variable, we took time to evaluate the suitability of the installation of a TV or Plasma display above the mantel. We carried out testing to evaluate what possible operating temperatures that may be experienced when the appliance was installed in an internal chase.
