Before Installation
IMPORTANT: The wall where the appliance is to be installed must be capable of long-term support of the
total load of the appliance. Measures should also be taken to ensure sufficient strength to withstand the force
of earthquakes, vibration and other external forces. Plasterboard alone is not considered to be a structural
material. It is not recommended to rely on plasterboard fixings alone to support the weight of the appliance.
Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative surfaces of the appliance, if any. After ha-
ving selected the final position of the appliance taking into account the integrity of the wall the electric suite
may be secured to the wall. To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that the strength
of both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient. The appliance should not be installed until all wet
plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has been completed. Do not block the ventilation holes
of the appliance. The wall onto which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical surface.
Avoid sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or injury.
If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity
brick wall, or a solid wall, then the wall plugs and fixing screws provided may
be used. Depending on the condition of the wall it may be necessary to use
additional fixings. In this situation, any additional fixings and wall plugs should
be of the same size and type as the ones provided.
The wall where the appliance is to be installed must be capable of long-term support of the total load of the
appliance. Measures should also be taken to ensure sufficient strength to withstand the force of earthquakes,
vibration and other external forces. Plasterboard alone is not considered to be a structural material. It is not
recommended to rely on plasterboard fixings alone to support the weight of the appliance.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall then efforts should
be made to fix one position vertically, into one of the wooden studs, or supporting wooden members of the
wall using the fixing screws provided. If this is not achievable then the wall should be strengthened using ap-
propriate building materials.
