INSTALLATION
If this appliance featuring magnetic door seals is to replace an
older appliance having a spring lock (latch) on the door or lid,
be sure to make that spring lock unusable before you discard
the old appliance.
This will prevent it from becoming a death-trap for a child.

The appliance should be installed well away from
sources of heat such as radiators, boilers, direct
sunlight etc.

The class of your appliance is shown on its rating plate.
Make sure that there is nothing at the back, at the
top and at the bottom of the appliance to obstruct
air circulation.
For a more efficient operation of the appliance, the
minimum distance between the top of the appliance
and other overhanging kitchen furniture, if any,
should be at least 15 mm (see Fig. 1-A).
However, the best solution would be that shown in
Fig. 1-B with no overhanging furniture.
Two adjustable feet at the cabinet base allow
accurate levelling of the appliance.

admissible.
To adapt the appliance to other voltages, use an
autotransformer having a minimum output of
500 VA.
Important
It is essential that the appliance be connected to an
