cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.

Safety instructions
Installation
Warning!
Only a qualified person must install this
appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Obey the installation instruction supplied with the ap-
pliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from the other applian-
ces and units.
• Always be careful when you move the appliance be-
cause it is heavy. Always wear safety gloves.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to prevent mois-
ture to cause swelling.
• Protect the bottom of the appliance from steam and
moisture.
• Do not install the appliance adjacent to a door or un-
der a window. This prevents hot cookware to fall
from the appliance when the door or the window is
opened.
• If the appliance is installed above drawers make
sure that the space, between the bottom of the appli-
ance and the upper drawer, is sufficient for air circu-
lation.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of 2 mm, be-
tween the worktop and the front of the below unit, is
free. The warranty does not cover damages caused
by the lack of an adequate ventilation space.
• The bottom of the appliance can get hot. We recom-
mend to install a non-combustile separation panel
under the appliance to prevent access to the bottom.
