SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

2.1 Installation

WARNING!
Only a qualified person must in-
stall this appliance.

• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appli-

ance.

• Obey the installation instruction sup-

plied with the appliance.

• Keep the minimum distance from the

other appliances and units.

• Always be careful when you move the

appliance because it is heavy. Always
wear safety gloves.

• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to

prevent moisture to cause swelling.

• Protect the bottom of the appliance

from steam and moisture.

• Do not install the appliance adjacent to

a door or under a window. This pre-
vents hot cookware to fall from the ap-
pliance when the door or the window is
opened.

• If the appliance is installed above draw-

ers make sure that the space, between
the bottom of the appliance and the up-

per drawer, is sufficient for air circula-
tion.

• Make sure that the ventilation space of

2 mm, between the worktop and the
front of the below unit, is free. The war-
ranty does not cover damages caused
by the lack of an adequate ventilation
space.

• The bottom of the appliance can get

hot. We recommend to install a non-
combustile separation panel under the
appliance to prevent access to the bot-
tom.
