is the same as the wall opening above.
2. Install and properly ground GA3555,
three-prong 120 volt electrical outlet, in

ing to fireplace location. This installation

11. Carefully insert fireplace into cabinet
mantel. Be careful not to scratch or
damage hearth base, cabinet mantel, or
any laminate trim on hearth base. Re-
move protective material from top of
hearth base and from front of fireplace
(if any).

Locate screw holes in bottom of base.
Tighten wood screws through these
holes and into hearth or floor.
