directly behind the appliance.
This appliance must be positioned free from draughts, which may affect the combustion, and in

shelves are well clear of the appliance.
The performance of this appliance meets the requirements of the Australian Standard for
Domestic Cooking Appliances. We recommend the installation follows the minimum
dimensions shown in this manual as any deviation could result in excessive temperature
rise. If minimum dimensions must be reduced, due to design constraints, a temperature rise
test of all furniture fitted around the unit MUST be performed. The design is deemed
permissible providing the results of this test comply with all standards in force and the
requirements detailed within the furniture manufacturer’s material specification
.
Where
minimum dimensions are reduced we recommend protecting with non combustible material
.
