To install the Litedeer Homes ZEF45 75-in Latitude Built-In Smart Linear Electric Fireplace, follow these steps:

1. Determine the location: Choose a suitable location for the fireplace, ensuring it is installed at a height suitable for the audience to appreciate. Refer to the provided guidelines for minimum and maximum height recommendations.

2. Plug-In Installation: If you choose to plug in the fireplace, run the power cord out of the framed wall opening to an existing outlet or install an outlet on a nearby wall stud within the wall. If the cord is not long enough to reach the outlet, you can use a grounded extension cord with minimum AWG No. 14 wiring and rated to a minimum of 1875 watts.

3. Hardwire Installation: The fireplace comes ready for plug-in installation, but if you prefer a hardwired installation, it is recommended to hire a qualified and authorized technician to perform the installation. Ensure that the circuit on which the unit is to be installed has the power cut off at the service panel until installation is complete.

4. Framing and installation: Follow the recommended framing dimensions provided in the user guide for rough framing. Construct the framing to support the weight of the fireplace. Secure the side brackets of the fireplace to the wall using framing screws. Use the provided screws to fix the fireplace to the wooden frame to ensure it is tightly locked.

5. Front trim and glass installation: Loosen and remove the screws that lock the outer frame, then take out the front trim piece. Remove the hinge plate behind the top trim and the screws of the baffle bar on the inclined glass. Remove the inclined glass. Place natural pebbles on the bottom and then put the driftwood log sets on the ember bed. Put the glass back in place, lock the hinge plate, and fix the outer metal frame.
