FIXING THE OVEN Introduce the oven into the furniture opening and fix it with 4 screws (not supplied) as figure 5.2. It is essential that the oven rests on a surface which will support its weight, as the screw fixing is only complementary. Adjust the hinges of furniture doors adjacent to the oven to allow a 4-5 mm gap between the furniture door and the oven frame.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS The appliance must be installed in compliance with applicable local regulations concerning ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases. Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window, or more efficient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is fitted.
