Installation Procedure

  • Affix the wall brackets to the lower part of the back of the fire unit using the 4 small screws as supplied.
  • When you unpack the front panel, you will find a paper template. Attach the paper template carefully to the wall in the chosen position, taking note of the minimum clearance distance for each type of front panel stated on the template. (See diagram 1)
  • Drill the 4 fixing position using an 8mm drill bit for the wall plugs supplied or drill the correct size for alternative chosen fixings if required for the type of wall. (See important note on page 2).
  • Remove the paper template from the wall.
  • Install the 2 top fixings into the wall and then install the 2 long screws, screwing them in so the underside of the screw head stands off the wall by 2 to 3 mm. (See Diagram 2).
  • Locate the heater on the two keyhole slots in the back panel onto the 2 top fixing screws and secure the heater by fixing the remaining 2 long screws through the lower fixing brackets (See Diagram 3).
  • To fit the front panel, raise the panel into position and locate the returns on the top of the two fixing brackets Diagram 3 into the corresponding hanging bracket slots on the top of the heater (See Diagram 4). Push the bottom of the front panel firmly into position on the lower clip locks.

Note: The lower support brackets must always be used so as to prevent the heater lifting from the wall mounting bracket.
IMPORTANT If the screws & wall plugs are not suitable for the type of wall, the fixings that are used must be strong enough to support the weight of the fire & the front panel.bemodern MINI BVF Remote Controlled 2kW
