5 Installation method

Built in models

This product has been designed to be installed into a plaster
board, or existing masonry chimney breast.
Please seek advice from a professional, with reference to the
structural integrity of the installation site.

If the product is to be installed into a open chimney or flue, it is
important that the chimney/flue is blocked o to prevent any
up/down draughts and falling debris which could restrict
and alter the airflow to the product.

It is also important to ensure that the product has a minimum
internal clearance directly above and below the product of
50mm, this is to ensure that the product can circulate the
required airflow for the heater unit.

The product should never be sealed into a opening with the
use of silicones or adhesives as this can also alter the airflow
and hinder any further servicing of the product

Heating shut-off protection

This protection protects the product against damage.

When the air circulation is impeded, the fire is switched o
automatically. This can happen with incorrect installation of
the fireplace, or blockages.

To reset the heating function:

• Remove the plug from the socket.

• Allow the product to cool.

• If the device has cooled down suiciently, remove any
blockages and check the installation.

Aer 10 minutes, the thermostat switch (trip protection) of the
heater is reset.

Note:

Both the eect fan and the heating fan produce a so sound
that is associated with normal operation of the stove.

6 Hollow wall installation method

In all Element4 fireplaces, a free space of 100mm at least 50mm
must be maintained immediately above and below the main
housing for good air circulation. (Failure to do so may cause
problems for the heating and flame function).

Each Element4 fireplace is supplied with one or more wall
mounting brackets.

Determine the height at which the finished Element4 fireplace
should be positioned in relation to the floor level.

Note:

The minimum distance to the floor is 300 mm

Attach the wall bracket to the wall, making sure that you use
the correct fasteners that match the respective wall - hollow or
solid.

Hang the Element4 fireplace on the bracket and secure it in
place with the wall bracket at the top of the fireplace.
Insert the plug of the IEC-compliant power cable into the IEC­compliant socket and ensure that it is firmly pushed.

Note:

Place the device near a suitable socket so that it can be
connected to the mains.

It is important that the outlet is located outside the installation
location so that the socket is easily accessible and the plug
can be disconnected from the stove aer installation.
Aer the fire is attached to the wall and connected to the
socket, the surround (the chimney) can be placed around it.

Construct the hollow installation space for the electric fire in
the desired dimensions. For minimum opening dimensions,
see Figure 1 and Table 1.It is important that you take into
account the finished front when determining the depth of the
frame construction.

It is important that a header/lintel is also placed at the desired
height, so that the weight of the wall made will not come to rest
on the appliance.

Make the cut in the plasterboard / finishing plate and install the
fireplace, making sure that the plaster board edges connect to
the inside of the cut in the plate.

CAUTION

In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the
thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied through
an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a
circuit that is regularly switched on and o by the utility.
