2. The height from the underside of the appliance to the lower edge of the wall bracket is 402mm. (Fig A)
3. Add the two measurements together and you will have the height to mount the bracket. (Fig B)
4. Remove the wall mounting bracket from the rear of the fire by removing the Phillips screws at each end of the bracket that is retaining it to the appliance. (Fig A)
5. Position the wall bracket against the wall at the determined height and centralize taking account of the overall width of the fireplace.

Arrange the appliance as a “Front and two sides view” as shown on page 7. After removing the side panel ensure you replace the vertical edging strips onto the appliance, don’t use the top and bottom edging strips as referred to on page 7 but use the new channel edging strips supplied in the surround carton.

13. c. Once the bracket is fitted onto the fire, it can then also be fixed to the wall.
14. Replace the screws that were removed from the wall bracket ends to secure the appliance (Fig C).
15. Set up your fuel bed and replace the front glass following the instructions in the appliance before fitting the surround

Fitting the Surround: (Extra Pair of hands is useful for the next stage)
