frame. To locate the fixing holes, open the oven door and look inside. To allow adequate ventilation,
the measurements and distances adhered to when fixing the oven.
IMPORTANT
If the oven is to work properly, the kitchen housing must be suitable. The panels of the kitchen unit
that are next to the oven must be made of a heat resistant material. Ensure that the glues of units
that are made of veneered wood can withstand temperatures of at least 250 ºF. Plastics or glues
that cannot withstand such temperatures will melt and deform the unit, once the oven has been
lodged inside the units, electrical parts must be completely insulated. This is a legal safety
requirement. All guards must be firmly fixed into place so that it is impossible to remove them without
using special tools. Remove the back of the kitchen unit to ensure an adequate current of air
circulates around the oven. The hob must have a rear gap of at least 45 mm.

When you have unpacked the oven, make sure that it has not been
damaged in any way. If you have any doubts at all, do not use it:

produced by the oven for baking and self-cleaning. Check with your builder
or cabinet supplier to make sure that the materials used will not discolor,
delaminate or sustain other damage.
•
Contact a qualified floor covering installer to check that the floor covering can
withstand at least 200°F (93°C).
