NOTE: A 15amp, 120-volt cir-
cuit is required. A dedicated cir-
cuit is preferred but not essential
in all cases. A dedicated circuit
will be required if, after installa-
tion, the circuit breaker trips or
the fuse blows on a regular basis
when the heater is operating. Ad-
ditional appliances on the same
circuit may exceed the current
rating of the circuit breaker.
CAUTION: High temperature,
risk of re, keep electrical cords,
drapery, furnishings, and other
combustibles at least 3 ft (0.9 m)
from the front of the heater.

NOTE: The replace insert is
to be installed in an opening with
minimum dimensions: 24 in. (610
mm) wide by 23 in. (585 mm) high
and 11 ½ in. (292 mm) deep.
CAUTION: Clearance for air
circulation beneath the replace
insert is provided by four (4) rub-
ber feet (Figure 1). Do not install
the replace insert directly on
carpet or similar surfaces which
may restrict air circulation. If in-
stalling the replace in a carpeted
area, place a one-piece, solid, at
surface under the replace insert.
Ensure that all 4 of the insert’s
feet rest securely on this surface.
