READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
1. Before permanently placing your fireplace, plug it into a convenient outlet to verify that the circuit breakers for the outlet are on.
2. The electric fireplace may emit a slight, harmless odor when first used. This odor is normal and it is caused by the initial heating of internal fireplace parts and will not occur again.
3. If your electrical fireplace does not emit heat, consult your User’s Manual for further information.

• Open the packaging carefully and remove the fireplace.
• Remove and discard the plastic bag.
• BE RESPONSIBLE WHEN HANDLING THE PACKING MATERIALS.
• WARNING: KEEP PLASTIC WRAPPING AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
• Keep the original packaging for future transport and/or storage.
• Keep the front of the unit, through which the heat is radiated, at least 3’/0.9 m away from furniture, curtains and other flammable objects/materials at all times.
Ensure there is a grounded socket nearby (back of the appliance).
NOTE:
A dedicated power circuit is recommended for the unit but not required. Additional electrical appliances on the same circuit may exceed the current (amperage) rating for that circuit. If after the installation of your unit, the circuit breaker trips or the fuse fails on a repeated basis, then a dedicated circuit will likely be required.
Any new wiring must be done in compliance with local and national codes and other applicable regulations in order to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or other injuries. It is strongly recommended that you hire a licensed electrician to complete any such work.

This fireplace is for use on 120V outlets. The cord has a 3 blade plug (See Figure 4-A). An adapter is available for connecting three-blade grounded-type plugs to two-slot receptacles (See Figure 4-C). The green grounding lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available.
Note: This grounding method is not applicable in Canada.
