Safety instructions
Installation
Warning! The appliance must be
installed by the authorised
installer.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged
appliance.
• Follow the installation instructions
supplied with the appliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from other
appliances and units.
• Always take care when moving the
appliance as it is heavy. Always use safety
gloves and enclosed footwear.
• 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 falling 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.
• The bottom of the appliance can get hot.
Make sure to install a non-combustible
separation panel under the appliance to
prevent access to the bottom.
