opened.
• If the appliance is installed above drawers make sure
that the space, between the bottom of the appliance
and the upper drawer, is sufficient for air circulation.
• Make sure that the ventilation space of 5 mm,
between the worktop and the front of the below unit,

• The bottom of the appliance can get hot. We
recommend to install a non-combustible separation
