Ceiling Clearances: The ceiling height should not be less than 42"
from the top of the hood. See Figures 6a and 6b.
Mantel Clearances: Vent free replace models must use the hood
supplied with the replace, or one of the optional hood kits avail-
able for each model. If a combustible mantel is installed, it must
meet the clearance requirements detailed below.
Leave furniture and other combustible items at least 36" away from
the front openings of the replace.
Do not attach combustible material to the mantel of your replace.
This is a re hazard.
Figure 7
No greeting cards, stockings or ornamentation of any type should
be placed on or attached to the replace. This is a heating appliance.
The ow of heat can ignite combustibles.
