Step 1: Unpack and ensure all components are correct and undamaged

•Appliance with 2 remote controls (one spare)

•Box of firebed mediums

Step 2: Install plinth (if required)

•If the appliance is to sit on a plinth, ensure it is

capable of supporting a 200kg load.

•There is no clearance requirement for the base of

the appliance. It may safely sit directly upon

combustible (eg. timber) and non-combustible

(eg. concrete) materials.

Step 3: Install appliance into cavity

•Important: The cavity (that the appliance is to be

installed into) must be weather-tight and free-

draining and comply with the requirements of the

New Zealand Building Codes E2 (External

Moisture).

•Before installation, confirm all minimum

clearances from the outside surfaces of the

appliance to the surrounding enclosure are no

closer than 25mm from combustible materials and

5mm from non-combustible materials.

•The exception to these minimum clearances is the base and the front surround panels of the appliance, the

base can safely sit directly upon combustible (e.g. timber) and non-combustible (e.g. concrete) materials,

refer to the appropriate appliance specification for the correct clearance requirements. Ensure the framing

is capable of supporting a 200kg load.

•Ensure the appliance has adequate air supply to the cavity under the burner. Check appropriate appliance

specifications for air requirements.

•If a gas supply pipe has already been run to the cavity, ensure 1000mm of 3/8 soft copper tube is available

at the centre of the cavity, as this is where the copper tube with the gas supply enters the appliance.

•If an electrical supply cable has already been run to the cavity (must be a minimum of 1.0mm 3 core cable),

ensure that the cable reaches the centre of the cavity, as this is where it will enter the appliance.

•In order to access the fixing slots in the base of the appliance, and the gas and electrical connections, it is

necessary to first remove the burner tray.

•Slide appliance into position and ensure that it complies with the minimum clearances required (25mm for

combustibles, 5mm for non-combustibles) to the surrounding enclosure. The exception to these minimum

clearances is the base and the front surround panels of the appliance, the base can safely sit directly upon

combustible (e.g. timber) and non-combustible (e.g. concrete) materials, refer to the appropriate appliance

specification for the correct clearance requirements. Ensure the framing is capable of supporting a 200kg

load.

•In order to provide maximum positioning flexibility, the base of the appliance has two fixing brackets with two

30mm long slots in each.

•The two ﬁxing brackets will clamp the appliance into position. Locate the ﬁxing brackets and mark out and

drill ﬁxing holes through the 30mm slots in the ﬁxing brackets. Ensure holes are drilled in the centre of the

slots to allow maximum positioning ﬂexibility. Clear out any debris from drilling.

•Ensure the appliance is level and pack up corners to suit where necessary. Check and ensure unit is level.

•Once the appliance is level, fix bolts/screws into hearth.
