Side Clearances
Combustible materials may project beyond the
sides of the fireplace opening as long as they
are kept within the shaded areas illustrated in
Figure 8.
Hearth Extension - A hearth extension is not required with this appliance. If a hearth extension is used,
do not block the lower control compartment access door. Any hearth extension used is for appearance
only and does not have to conform to standard hearth extension installation requirements.
Wall Finishes / Surrounds / Mantels
Note: Combustible wall finish materials and/or surround materials must not be allowed to encroach
the area defined by the appliance front and back faces (black sheet metal). Never allow combustible
materials to be positioned in front of or overlapping the appliance front and back faces. See Figure
58 on Page 32.
Non-combustible materials, such as surrounds and other appliance trim, may be installed on the
appliance front and back faces with the following exception: If the optional radiant panels are
installed, the non-combustible material may cover any portion of the top radiant panel or the air
gaps surrounding the top radiant panel down to the top edge of eyebrow hood.
The material must
NOT cover any portion of the glass door or louvered panels.
Vertical installation clearances to combustible mantels vary according to the depth of the mantel. See
Figure 6. Mantels constructed of non-combustible materials may be installed at any height above the
appliance opening; however, do not allow anything to hang below the hood.
NOTE: We recommend the use of high temperature paint (rated 175° F or higher) on the under-
side of the mantel.

Maintain clearances from appliance to
combustible materials as detailed in Table
5, with the following exception: When the
appliance is installed with one side flush
with a wall, the wall on the other side of the
appliance must not extend beyond the front
edge of the appliance. In addition, when the
appliance is installed in the middle of a room, the
side walls surrounding the appliance must not
extend beyond the front edge of the appliance.
