●
built-in cooling fan.
the installation will comply with all clearance

requirements and applicable standards and regulations.
you consult local building authorities and by-laws if in

doubt regarding installation.
When you install the appliance
We do not recommend you flush mount or seal this
●
appliance into the bench with silicone or glue. Doing so
will make future servicing difficult. Fisher & Paykel will
not be liable for any costs associated with removing or
replacing a sealed-in appliance, nor for repairing any
damage that may be incurred by doing this.
Seal exposed bare edges of the cutout with an oil-based
●
paint or moisture-proof polyurethane to prevent possible
moisture creeping between the cooktop trim and the
benchtop.
Take extreme care not to chip, crack, or break the top
●
glass surfaces during installation. A heavy metal tool or
part accidentally dropped on the glass could damage it.
If, after following the instructions given, correct
●
performance cannot be achieved, please contact your
nearest Fisher & Paykel Authorised Service Centre,
Customer Care, or contact us through our local website
