Important Information
1. Laminex Metaline Splashback system
must
be installed as per Section 5 - “Kitchen Splashbacks Installations”
contained in this manual to deliver optimum product performance and compliance. All installations require a
registration card to be completed by the installer to verify compliance with the installation instructions. Only
registered installations will carry Laminex’s warranty.
2. The minimum set back distance between the installed Laminex Metaline Splashback panel and any cook
top (gas or electric) is 30mm. This is to prevent impact damage caused by oversized pots being used on the
rear burner or element. Installations that are closer than 30mm will not be warranted. Laminex Metaline
Splashbacks are not suitable for installations where benchtop is less than 600mm.
3. The Laminex Metaline Splashback system has a proprietary coating that allows it to be cleaned easily. Cleaning of
Metaline Splashbacks should follow the “Care and Maintenance” section, which is contained later in this manual
and also on the consumer warranty card. Deep gouges caused by abrasive cleaners or scouring pads will not be
warranted.
4. Laminex Metaline Splashbacks are certified by SAI Global under the CodeMark scheme for use as
Splashbacks under the BCA and BCNZ, when installed according to these guidelines. CodeMark certification
number is SAIG-09-CM20030.
5. Laminex Metaline Splashbacks have been assessed for fire safety properties. Laminex Metaline Splashbacks
are classified as Group 2 (under specification A2.4 of the BCA) and have the typical fire indices of 0
(Ignitability index), 0 (Spread of flame index), 0 (Heat evolved index) and 0-6 (Smoke developed index).
6. ALWAYS follow the installation instructions as described in Section 5 of this document. Failure to follow the
installation instructions may create a potential fire hazard to the consumer and will void any warranty. Any
installation that is outside these guidelines would not be certified under the CodeMark scheme.
