wear safety gloves.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to
prevent moisture to cause swelling.

the bottom of the appliance and the up-
per drawer, is sufficient for air circulation.

does not cover damages caused by the
lack of an adequate ventilation space.

appliance exceeds 95°C. To avoid haz-
ard underbench access must be restric-
ted. If the hob is not installed above an
oven we recommend to install a non-
