OPTIONAL MANTEL INSTALLATION
Refer to instructions provided with the mantel
for assembly instructions. Refer to the follow-
ing instructions for system installation. Refer
to instructions on page 6 for hood assembly.
Blower accessory should be installed prior
to mantel if it is being used (see Installing
Optional Blower Accessory GA3450TA,
page 13).
1. Assemble cabinet mantel as shown in
accessory instruction sheet.
2. If blower is installed, install a properly
grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical
outlet at fireplace location if an outlet is not
there. If possible, locate outlet so cabinet
mantel will cover it when installed (see
Figure 12).
3. Place hearth base against wall at installa-
tion location. Cut an access hole in hearth
base to run gas line to fireplace (see Figure
12). Make sure to locate access hole so
cabinet mantel will cover it when installed.
Note: You can secure base to floor using
wood screws. Countersink screw heads
and putty over.
4. Route flexible gas line through access
hole in hearth base.
5. Center cabinet mantel on hearth base (see
Figure 13, page 13). Make sure mantel is
flush against wall and centered left to right
on base.
6. Use screws provided with mantel accessory
to attach mantel assembly to base (see
mantel instruction sheet).
7. Attach flexible gas line to fireplace gas
regulator. See Connecting to Gas Supply,
page 16.
