ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS FOR
POWER CORD

This fireplace operates on 120 VAC, 60 Hz

power. An electrical power cord is supplied with

this unit.
For Mantel Installation
1. Determine from which side of the fireplace the

power cord will exit. Locate the 1.5" diameter

hole near the center of floor support bracket on

appropriate side of lower cavity (see Figure 7).

2. Locate power cord. Remove wire tie or tape

holding plug end of power cord.

3. Power cord has 2 plastic hole bushings

threaded onto it. Route cord's 3-prong plug

through the 1.5" diameter hole in appropriate

floor support bracket.

4. Push first plastic bushing completely through

hole. Squeeze bushing as needed to do this.

5. Install the second plastic bushing into the

hole in the floor support bracket by snapping

into place.

6. Route the 3-prong plug through the 1.5" hole

in fireplace outer casing.

7. Install the first plastic bushing into this hole

by snapping into place.

8. After you have connected to gas supply and

checked your gas connections (see page 14),

plug power cord into any convenient 3-prong

grounded wall receptacle near fireplace.

For Recessed Installation
If an outlet is not installed in fireplace, install

model GA3555 - Outlet Kit with Cover. This

kit will supply a convenient 3-prong grounded

electrical outlet for power. Refer to installation

RELOCATING WALL SWITCH
ASSEMBLY

Note:

The decorative wall switch plate supplied

is white. The wall switch plate may be painted to

match your decor.
The push-button switch and decorative wall

plate assembly supplied with your fireplace is

pre-mounted at the factory in the lower cavity of

the fireplace. You may relocate this wall switch

assembly to a more convenient location such as the

side of your mantel or directly onto the wall near

the fireplace. To mount the wall switch assembly,

you must first cut openings in the mantel or wall

where the switch will be located.
Note:

If you choose to relocate the wall switch as-

sembly, do so before final installation into a mantel

or recessing into a wall. If you are installing an

optional blower accessory, install it at the same

time you relocate the wall switch assembly.

CAUTION: The wall switch

assembly must never be mount-

ed directly above the fireplace

where heat may damage it. If you

relocate wall switch assembly

from lower fireplace cavity, it

must be mounted either on side

wall of mantel or on wall to side

of fireplace.
