2.4 NIGHT LIGHT™ INSTALLATION
Your HD81 comes equipped with 2 “Night Lights™”. The lights
have been pre-wired and are controlled from the remote control.
Included with the burner assembly are the frames, lenses and
gaskets that need to be installed as shown.
THE FIREBOX MUST BE SEALED.
Over tightening the screws could break the lens.
“Light Leakage” from the holes in the housing lamp may be observed.
The holes in the lamp housing are necessary for ventilation and must
not be covered.
2.5 HEARTH PANEL INSTALLATION
Hearth panels are shipped separate from unit and are included with the burner assembly and the logs. Due to
the brittle material of the panels, care must be taken not to bend or force them into place.
When shipped, the hearth panels range in varying shades of Sandstone. During initial use, the panels will darken
temporarily. The appearance of the panels will permanently lighten in color with use.
