Installing the appliance
Mounting Accessories
The mounting accessories needed for
installing the appliance into the niche
are included in the packaging. Several
plastic bags are included which are
marked alphabetically.
The bag needed for each step will be
marked with its respective letter.
^ Use the included Torx screwdriver to
tighten the screws.
Anti-tip brackets
The anti-tip brackets help keep the
appliance safely secured to the
installation niche to prevent tipping.
Two anti-tip brackets are
recommended for each appliance or
appliance combination (side-by-side).
If the installation niche is deeper than
the appliance, a solid wooden beam
can be placed behind the anti-tip
brackets so the appliance can be
securely attached to the base or wall.
The length of the wooden beam
should be to the width of the installation
space.
If possible, always screw the
wooden beam into existing studs.
64
The distance "D" between the anti-tip
brackets is the width of the
appliance.
^ Position the anti-tip brackets
the left and right walls of the
appliance niche.
^ Mark the holes through the anti-tip
brackets on the floor of the
installation niche.
^ Set the brackets aside.
Assure that there are no electrical
wires or plumbing in the area which
the screws could penetrate - risk of
injury and damage.
Screws for various applications and
types of material are supplied in the
packaging.
If these are not suitable for the
anti-tip mechanism in your
installation, you will need to use
alternative means to secure it.
