Make the worktop cut-out for one or
more appliances as applicable.
Remember to maintain a
minimum
safety distance
from the
back wall
,
as well as from any
tall unit or side
wall
to the right or left of the
appliance.
See "Safety clearances".
^
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Make sure these materials do not
come into contact with the surface
of the worktop.
If, during installation, you find that the
seals on the corners of the frame are
not flush with the worktop surface,
the corner radius (
ß
R4) can be
carefully scribed to fit.
