9.2 Mounting external cover
i
Only mount external cover once the
external plastering is complete.
Only
use stainless steel screws when
mounting external covers made of
stainless steel.
i
Formation of surface rust: External
factors (e.g. air containing sulphur
dioxide or salt, dust containing iron etc.)
may cause surface rust to form on stain-
less steel. We recommend thoroughly
cleaning unpainted stainless steel exter-
nal covers before mounting (remove
dust and finger-prints) and rub in a little
oil (e.g. care oil for stainless steel).
