NOTICE
Hygiene requirements can only be met with a foam base
At an adjustable foot height of 45mm, it is not possible to properly clean underneath the unit. The unit must
therefore stand on a foam base. The foam base prevents liquids or food from getting underneath the unit.
Where EN1672-2 applies, the lower feet may only be used without a foam base if there is a cleaning concept.
