POSITIONING AND FIXING THE DEVICE

IMPORTANT
The device must be positioned with its back near a wall (gap of no more than 10 mm) and must be installed
by an authorised engineer.
The installer engineer is responsible for the correct operation of the device after installation and must also
provide the user with all information required for its correct use.
During installation, the protective film must be removed from the steel outer surfaces.
The device can be installed with its sides flush against those of the adjacent cabinets.
Also take care that the heat does not reach any electrical circuits or sockets behind the device.
The device has water intake and drain hoses which can be positioned leading to the right or left, depending
on installation requirements (see section 15.2.3, "CONNECTIONS AREA – ELECTRICITY AND WATER")
Once the installation point has been chosen, remove the stand from the top of the device and place it on the
ground. Then use a spirit level and the 4 adjuster screws provided to set the top supporting surface of the
stand completely level (maximum variation from the horizontal permitted: 0.5°, equivalent to maximum
difference in height between the corners of the device of about 5 mm).
Correct levelling will ensure that the device operates correctly.
IMPORTANT
The device must be fixed to a wall to guarantee the user's safety and ensure that it cannot tip over. After
viewing the installation diagram (section 15.2, "PRODUCT DIMENSIONS AND DRAIN CONNECTION") the
customer must assess the situation and give permission for drilling the holes for insertion of the wall fixing
screws.
The device may be fixed to the floor (section 6.1.2) as well as to the wall for even greater stability and safety.

6.1.1 FIXING TO THE WALL

Place the device on the stand and fix it to it with the 4 M8 screws provided (two per side) and the 2 M4
screws for the front (open the door of the bottom compartment to insert the last two.).
The "L" brackets supplied with the device must be used to fix it to the wall.
Screw the two brackets to the top of the device using the M5 screws provided and slide them out until they
fit snugly against the wall.
Use 2 anchor bolts diameter 8 mm to fix the brackets to the wall. After fixing, tighten the screws on the top
of the device.
