BIOETHANOL
The fuel must be bioethanol for bioethanol replaces with an alcohol percentage of 86-97.5%. Do not use bioethanol gel, thick and viscous fuels
or fuels of improper electric conductivity. Other fuels, such as dehydrated ethanol or similar, will cause device malfunction and loss of the product
warranty. Fuels consisting of 100% by volume ethanol will damage the device.
Recommended fuel is bioethanol consisting of 95-97.5% ethanol per volume.

1. Foco Fireplace Placement
1.1 Installation and placement guideance
• For indoor use and in housing use only.
• No heat-sensitive and ammable objects can be placed within 1 meter (40 inch) from, and directly above, the
device.
• Do not place any objects on the top of the device.
• When selecting a location for the replace it is important to consider the required room size and clearances to
walls and combustible materials. (See image below and Room Size Table page 5).
• It is recommended to have a room air exchange rate of min. 1/hr.
• Keep children, animals and unauthorised persons at a safe distance at all times and never leave them unsuper-
vised when the replace is on or hot.
• Do not use the replace in humid and drafty spaces.
• Some burner options has top ventinaltion openings, they must not be covered.
WARNING: Risk of re or burns! Provide adequate clearance around air openings and for service access.
Observe the clearances to ammable objects recommended in this manual and the burner manual. Ensure
that your re is positioned away from ammable materials and other sources of ignition at all times.
Due to high temperatures, the replace should be located out of trac and with a safe distance to furniture
and curtains. Pay very close attention to objects that can be moved as a result of draft and wind.

2.1 Framing
2.2 Denitions
A Foco bioethanol replace is not for use as a primary heat source. It is instead intended as a supplement room
heater or as a decorative appliance. It should not be factored in as primary heat in residential heating calculations.
Notice: Do not install directly beside or near wallpaper, laminate or other surfaces that are not designed to withstand
heat and high temperatures (the heat will impact the material, and in some circumstances, the glue used for its
application).
The area around the replace gets hot. Heat sensitive objects and materials should not be used. Do not place
ammable objects on or around the device.
• The Foco replace is not designed to incorporate doors or opening covers.
• The Foco replace must remain open at all times for ventilation - it is not designed to be operated as an
encapsulated replace. The re must have a constant supply of air to operate and be able to circulate and
distribute the heat eectively.
• Do not modify the Foco frame or bioethanol burner in any way.
• The appliance may give o small noises due to expanding and contracting caused by heating. This is normal.
• The appliance must be installed on a level surface capable of supporting the weight of the appliance, burner at full
capacity.
• The dimensions shown in the instructions are the optimum dimensions that allow the best t.
IMPORTANT!: The wall and framing around the Foco replace must be self-supporting. The Foco is not
load-bearing.
Combustible materials - materials made of or surfaced with wood, compressed paper, plant bres, plastic, or other
material that can ignite and burn shall be considered combustible.
Non-combustible materials - materials that will not ignite and burn. Such materials can be, but are not restricted to,
steel, iron, brick, tile, concrete, slate, glass or heat-resistant plasters- and berboards, and any combinations thereof.
The replace must be fully assembled into a xed secure position before being operated.

2.3 Before starting installation
• Prepare the following equipment: Power drill, screws, screwdriver, spirit level
• Carefully remove the replace and components from the packaging
• Inspect and report any parts damaged in shipment
• Read all of the instructions before starting the installation. Follow these instructions carefully during the installation
to ensure maximum safety.
Warning: Do not install damaged or incomplete components. Risk of re or explosion! Damaged parts could
impair the safe operation and use of the replace.
NOTE: Illustrations in this manual reects typical installations scenarios. Illustrations and diagrams are not
drawn to scale. Actual installation may vary du to individual design preferences.

3. Built-in Installation
Construct the main wall framework in your preferred material. The nished framework should have an opening for the
Foco frame as shown in Table A.
X = Insulation Board Thickness
NOTE: Remember to make room for heat-resistant insulation around the replace frame. Therefore the
thickness of the insulation boards should be added to all dimensions noted with x. Bord thickness is often
either 12.5mm or 15mm but can vary depending on the product you choose to use.

3.1.2 Insulation board
a) Cut your insulation boards into size, so that they will t into your framework. Fasten them using a power drill and
screws.
The insulation board is sold separatelyand and can be purchased at your local hardware shop. See 2.2 Denition for
more information about insulation boards.
The idea of the insulation boards is to create a heat-resistant spacer between the wooden wall frame and the replace
frame so that there is no direct contact. If the framework is made of a non-ammable material like e.g. steel the insula-
tion boards are not needed.
1 Can vary depending on burner type. The dimensions shown are for a standard manual burner. Please check your
specic required burner cutout size, if your replace is equipped with another burner.
2 IMPORTANT - If you want the nished wall to go ush with the replace frame, you need to subtract the thickness
of the wall nishing materials from the dimensions of the framework. This will make the Foco frame protrude from the
framework equivalent to the thickness of the wall nishing material. See 3.1.3 for more information.

3.1.3 Insert frame
a) If your bioethanol burner requires electricity to be operated provide an electricity connection with easy access inside
the framework. If your burner oers the opportunity to connect a Smart Home System any additional required cables
should also be routed now. Check the burner manual for additional information.
b) As standard, the Foco frame is assembled with small nuts and bolts. They protrude approximately 1 cm out from the
frame. A small cutout in the framework/insulation board might be necessary for the Foco frame to t. Illustration 1
c) Slide the replace frame into the framing cavity.
NOTE: For the replace to sit ush with the nished wall, make the Foco frame protrude out of the wall, equivalent to
the thickness of the wall nishing material. Illustration 2
The space inside the wall does not require any ventilation. Unless your burner is a Dimplex Cassette Opti-
Myst water vapour replace.

3.1.5 Complete wall construction
a) Complete the construction by nishing the wall panelling around the appliance with non-ammable materials. Do
not use ammable materials like wood panels without consulting the manufacturer or testing the ammability of the
wooden panels.

3.1.4 Fasten frame
a) Fasten the Foco frame to the framework through the holes in the top of the frame. Use a spirit level to make sure
the frame is mounted at level.
b) The weight of the bottom plate is usually enough to keep it in place. But if you want to secure it further, you can
fasten it to the framework through the holes for the glass brackets using small screws. See 3.1.6 for fastening of glass
brackets.
