Combustible Rear Walls
Since this appliance can be used continuously, please take
note of the IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS.
Where the rear wall is constructed of combustible materials
(such as all-timber or stud wall partitions and batoned
plasterboard) these will require special wall heat protection
measures.
Non-combustible insulation board as a protective cladding
can be used behind the appliance of at least 15mm thick,
such as Monolux or equivalent. This should be taken up to
hotplate level (Fig. 12.3).
The 5mm air gap must be left open and NOT blocked o
across the top edge (Fig. 12.4).
SPECIAL NOTE: Ensure that unprotected electric cabling
or plastic services do not pass within or on the outside of
the wall behind or directly above the appliance. This type of
material can age prematurely when exposed to continuous
higher temperature.
Other Clearances
A minimum clearance of 1000mm must be available at the
front of the appliance to enable it to be serviced.
