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 acces-
sory instruction sheet.
2. If blower is installed, install a properly
grounded, 120 volt three-prong electrical out-
let 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 installation
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 regula-
tor. See Connecting to Gas Supply, page 16.
8. Route electrical cord(s) through access holes
in either side of fireplace with bushing. Plug
electrical cord(s) into electrical outlet.
9. Check all gas connections for leaks. See
Checking Gas Connections, page 18.
10. Carefully insert fireplace into cabinet mantel (see
Figure 13, page 13). Be careful not to scratch or
damage hearth base or cabinet mantel.
