When using electrical appliances,

basic precautions should always

be followed to reduce the risk of

fire, electric shock, and injury to

persons, including the following:

①Read all instructions before

using the Convex In-Stud re-

place.

②The heater is hot when in use.

To avoid burns, do not let bare

skin touch hot surfaces. The trim

around the heater outlet becomes

hot during heater operation.

Keep combustible materials, such

as furniture, pillows, bedding,

papers, clothes, and curtains at

least three (3) feet (0.9 m) from

the front of the unit and keep

them away from the sides and

rear.

③Extreme caution is neces-

sary when any heater is used by

or near children or invalids and

whenever the unit is left operating

and unattended.

④Always unplug the fireplace

when not in use.

⑤Do not operate any heater

after it malfunctions. Disconnect

power at the service panel and

have the heater inspected by a

reputable electrician before reus-

⑥ Do not operate any unit with

a damaged cord or plug, or if the

heater has malfunctioned, or if

the electric replace has been

dropped or damaged in any man-

ner, contact Dimplex Technical

Service at 1-888-346-7539.

⑦Do not use outdoors.

⑧Never locate heater where it

may fall into a bathtub or other

water container.

⑨Do not run the cord under

carpeting (for units supplied with

a cord). Do not cover cord with

throw rugs, runners, or the like.

Arrange cord away from traf-

c area and where it will not be

tripped over.

⑩To disconnect the unit, turn

the controls off, and then remove

the plug from the outlet or switch

off at main power supply panel if

the unit is hard wired.

⑪Do not insert or allow foreign

objects to enter any ventilation

or exhaust opening as this may

cause an electric shock or re, or

damage to the heater.

⑫ To prevent a possible re, do

not block air intake or exhaust in

any manner.

⑬All electrical heaters have

hot and arcing or sparking parts

inside. Do not use in areas where

gasoline, paint, or ammable liq-

uids are used or stored.

⑭ Do not modify the replace.

Use it only as described in this

manual. Any other use not rec-

ommended by the manufacturer

may cause re, electric shock or

injury to persons.

⑮This unit may have a polar-

ized plug (one blade is wider than

the other). The plug will t in a

polarized outlet only one way. If

the plug does not t fully in the

outlet, reverse the plug. If it still

does not t, contact a qualied

electrician to install the proper

outlet.

⑯ Always plug heaters directly

into a wall outlet/receptacle.

Never use with an extension cord

or relocatable power tap (outlet/

power strip).

⑰Do not burn wood or other

materials in the replace.

⑱Do not strike the glass front.

⑲ Always use a certied electri-

cian for build-in hard-wired instal-

lation.

⑳Always use properly ground-

ed, fused and polarized outlets.

㉑Disconnect all main power

supply (unplug the unit or switch

off at main service panel) before

performing any cleaning, mainte-

nance or relocation of the unit.

㉒ Do not operate the replace

without the glass assembly and/or

frame.

㉓When transporting or storing

the unit and cord, keep in a dry

place, free from excessive vibra-

tion and store so as to avoid dam-

age.

㉔Do not put combustible mate-

rial, liquid, or small articles such

as sand inside glass assembly.

Fireplace Installation

WARNING: Ensure the power

cord is not installed so that it is

pinched or against a sharp edge

and ensure that the power cord is

stored or secured to avoid tripping

or snagging to reduce the risk

of re, electric shock or injury to

persons.

WARNING: Construction

and electrical outlet wiring must

comply with local building codes

and other applicable regulations

to reduce the risk of re, electric

shock and injury to persons.

WARNING: Do not attempt

to wire your own new outlets or

circuits. To reduce the risk of re,

electric shock or injury to persons,

always use a licensed electrician.

WARNING: To reduce the risk

of re, do not store or use gaso-

line or other ammable vapors or

liquids in the vicinity of the heater.

!NOTE: A 15amp, 120-volt cir-

cuit is required. A dedicated cir-

cuit is preferred but not essential

in all cases. A dedicated circuit

will be required if, after installa-

tion, the circuit breaker trips or

the fuse blows on a regular basis

when the heater is operating. Ad-

ditional appliances on the same

circuit may exceed the current

rating of the circuit breaker.

WARNING: The Convex In

Stud replace is wall mount-

able and can be built in a wall

space 16" (406 mm) over-cen-

ter between 2” (51 mm) x 4”

(102 mm) wall studs. Follow

the installation instructions for

either wall mount or built-in

mounting; failure to do so may

cause damage or injury.

CAUTION: High temperature,

risk of re, keep electrical

cords, drapery, furnishings,

and other combustibles at

least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the

front of the heater.

Wall Mounting Instructions

1. Leave the glass assembly un-

installed until step 10.

2. Select a location for the re-

place, preferably above an

electrical outlet and there

must be at least one wall stud

behind for the replace to

mount onto. The bottom of

the unit must be a minimum

of 14" (356 mm) above the

oor (mounting holes 29¾"

(0.75 m) minimum above the

oor) (Figure 2).

Access to the electrical outlet

8 www.dimplex.com

must be maintained. Ensure the

installation meets the national and

state/provincial electrical codes.

!NOTE: It is recommended

that the bottom of the unit not be

mounted higher than 48" (1.22

m) from the ground to maintain

an optimized viewing angle of the

ame.

CAUTION: The replace must

be mounted at two points, one of

which must be on a wall stud.

WARNING: High tempera-

tures may be generated under

certain abnormal conditions. Do

not partially or fully cover or ob-

struct the bottom of this heater.

Bottom of unit must be a mini-

mum of 14" (356 mm) above the

oor or any surface such as a ta-

bletop to ensure adequate space

for heat exhaust from the bottom

of the replace (Figure 3).

3. With a wall stud nder, locate

the center of the wall stud,

drive a wood screw into the

stud and leave approximately

⅛" (3 mm) exposed threads

for the replace to hang on.

4. The second mounting point

should be picked such that it

is farthest (to the left or right)

relative to the rst one among

the seven (7) keyholes (A to

G shown in Figure 2) on the

replace for wall mounting,

these keyholes are 2" (51

mm) apart. For example, if

you plan to use hole B as

the rst mounting hole, the

second mounting hole must

be G.

Other available combinations

are A-G, C-G, A-F, A-E, A-D

and D-G.

is level with the rst with the

help of the provided bubble

level and the replace itself.

Screw the threaded drywall

anchor in the drywall with a

Philip’s head screwdriver until

the head is at against the

wall surface.

Caution should be taken

when using a power tool to

install a threaded drywall an-

chor as the drywall may dis-

tort, tear or slightly buckle as

a result of over-torque.

6. With a Philip’s head screw

driver, screw the drywall an-

chor screw into the drywall

anchor already in the wall,

leave ⅛" (3 mm) exposed

threads for mounting the re-

place.

7. With the glass assembly tak-

en off, mount the rebox onto

the two mounting screws.

8. Mark position of hole “H”.

9. Remove replace from wall.

10. Install drywall anchor into dry-

wall at marked position.

11. With the glass assembly off,

mount the replace onto the

two mounted screws.

12. Tighten both mounting screws

with a screwdriver. Be careful

not to over tighten the screws

mated with the drywall an-

chor.

13. Secure Philip’s screw into

drywall anchor, already in the

wall (H).

Built-In Instructions

WARNING: The installation of

the replace unit must comply

with the applicable local and/or

national electrical codes and

utility requirements. This in-

10 www.dimplex.com

stallation should be entrusted

to duly qualied personnel

where required by law.

!NOTE: If the desired replace

location is on the interior of an

exterior wall the unit should

only be surface mounted. If a

in-wall or ush mount look is

desired build the interior wall

out into the room.

1. Leave the frame uninstalled

from the replace chassis un-

til step 13.

2. Prepare a wall opening fol-

lowing the dimensions shown

in Figure 5. Note that a 4"

(102 mm) minimum depth

including the thickness of dry

wall is required. Make sure

there is enough clearance for

the cable coming out from the

bottom of the replace.

!NOTE: Where there are close

tolerances involved in wall build-

ing or applications which require

a great degree of precision, we

recommend that the product itself

be used to make the actual mea-

surements for the wall opening.
