Each of the ELG24 and ELG20 packages contain one base assembly; two light bulbs; one flame package containing one flame assembly and three sets of flame strips (each set of flame strips is composed of one transparent strip and one opaque strip); one log package containing one front log, one rear log, and three top logs; and this manual.

The unit is approved for installation in any firebox opening that meets the following minimum dimensions: Front Width - 29" (26" for ELG20), Rear Width - 20" (17" for ELG20), Depth - 10 3/4", Height - 15 1/2". Fireboxes with straight sides must be a minimum of 24" wide (21" for ELG20). (See Figure 1).

Please note that there are no combustion or heat restrictions on this unit. It can be installed in structures approved for wood or gas fires, such as masonry fireplaces and wood stoves. It can also be installed in structures not approved for wood or gas fires, such as wood or drywall alcoves. The unit should rest on a flat, solid surface.

This unit does NOT require venting. It can be installed in vent-free fireboxes, as well as traditional direct vent fireboxes.

This unit comes completely wired. It requires only to be plugged into a 15 Amp, 120 Volt circuit. it is best if the outlet is located so it can be reached with the 8 ft. power cord. However, an extension cord may be used, provided it is rated at not less than 200 watts.

INSTALLATION

1. Remove all components from the shipping carton, and remove all packaging materials.
2. Place the base assembly in the firebox, centering it from left to right. The base assembly may be pushed back into the firebox until it contacts the rear wall of the firebox, or it may be left farther forward, if desired. To prevent movement, the base assembly may be fixed in place by screwing down through the two holes in its base (see Fig. 2). This is not required, however.
3. Uncoil the power cord, but do NOT plug in the cord at this time. Establish the path to the outlet. The cord should run as close to the wall as possible and be out of the way of traffic. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, property damage, electric shock, and personal injury, the cord must not be pinched or pressed against a sharp edge. Do not route the cord under carpeting or throw rugs.
4. Install the light bulbs into the light sockets. Hold the sockets while installing the bulbs to prevent twisting.
5. Remove the logs from their packaging. Install the front and rear logs (see Fig.3). The rear log should be centered left to right on the base assembly and pushed back until it contacts the lip on the back edge of the base assembly – the charred hollow area of the rear log faces forward. The front log sets over the light sockets and rests on the grate – the cut out of the front log covers the cut of the front log covers the light bulbs.
6. CAREFULLY open the flame package and remove the flame strip. Inspect the flame strip to see that the flames are centered left to right on the flame bar, with their bottom edges aligned with the bottom edge of the flame bar. The magnetic strip should be centered left to right on the flame bar and should hold the flames securely in place. If the magnetic strip or flames have shifted during shipping, restore them to the proper placement by removing the magnetic strip and gently moving the flame strips to their proper placement and finally placing the magnetic strip back in place.
7. Position the flame strip over the blower outlet of the base assembly, with the magnetic strip facing forward. The flame bar fits in the slots at either end of the blower opening, and is centered between the two screw heads (see Fig. 2). BE CAREFUL not to crease the flames or trap them beneath the flame bar.
8. Place the top logs in the positions shown (see Fig.3). Top log position is not critical. Top logs can be placed in a position that is pleasing to your eye. Take care not to trap flames under logs.
9. Plug in the unit and turn it on (see OPERATION below). CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT. FULLY INSERT PLUG. The ember bed should light up and the flames should stand up and flutter. If there are problems, see TROUBLESHOOTING below.

NOTE ON LOG POSITION:

The placement of the front log can affect the lighting and look of the log set. By rotating the front log away from the flames, more light shines on the flames, making them brighter. If the log is rotated too far toward the flames, it can reduce the light and the flames may appear dull. Experiment with the position of the front log to find the best position for your fireplace.

OPERATION

The ON/OFF switch is located on the front left of the unit. All functions of the unit are activated through this switch.
