when opening the door, as this
would damage the door seal
permanently.
If, after you have refitted the handle,
you find that the side section does
touch the door seal when the door is
opened:
Realign mounting platewith grub
screwsuntil the mounting plate

							* The appliance depth is increased
by approx. 35 mm for appliances
with wall spacers fitted.
Top box
Appliance
Housing unit
Wall
The appliance can be installed in a
kitchen run. To match the height of the
rest of the kitchen, the appliance can
be fitted with a suitable top box.
A ventilation gap of at least 50 mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance across the entire width of the
top box for air to circulate.
The cross section of the air outlet under
the room ceiling must be at least
300 cm
2to ensure that air can circulate
without hindrance. Otherwise theappliance has to work harder, resulting
in an increase in electricity
consumption.
The air inlet and outlet must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They should be dusted on a regular
basis.
When built into a kitchen run (max.
depth 580 mm) the appliance can be
installed directly next to a kitchen
furniture housing unit. The appliance
door will protrude in front of furniture
fronts at the sides by 34 mm* and by
55 mm* in the middle of the door. This
enables the doors to be opened and
shut without being obstructed.
When installednext to a walla
distance of approx. 55 mm must be
maintained on the hinge side between
the walland the appliance,so
that the doors and the handles have
sufficient space for opening.
