Installation
WARNING
Only a qualified person must install this appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Obey the installation instruction supplied 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 prevents hot cookware to fall
from the appliance when the door or the window
is opened.
• If the appliance is installed above drawers make sure
that the space, between the bottom of the appliance
and the upper drawer, is sufficient for air circulation.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of 5 mm,
between the worktop and the front of the below unit,
is free. The warranty 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-combustible separation
panel under the appliance to prevent access to
the bottom.
