Timberame Compact.

Clearance to combustibles, mantles and surrounds

Combustible clearances

The appliance must not be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could come
into contact with the heater. In some case curtains may need restraining.

Mantles and surrounds

A mantle is allowable providing it is outside the minimum clearances shown.

For an additional overhang, 100 mm of vertical clearance is required for every 50 mm of added
depth. For example, a 100 mm mantle depth requires 400 mm of vertical clearance.

Floor protection

Heat emanating from this re may over time affect the appearance of some
materials used for ooring, such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or timber. This may be
amplied if the air contains cooking vapours or cigarette smoke. To avoid this

occurring, it is recommended that a mat be placed in front of the appliance.
