Possible cause of fire behind the façade
Poor sealing between façade and oven door leads to grease contamination between
façade and oven wall. This grease contamination is then ignited by a flash fire off the
grill.
Solution: Ensure that the area above the oven door and façade is fully sealed with a
fire proof material. (See Installation – Assembly section in this manual)
For added safety, install an Ansul sprinkler head directly above the oven in the event of
a fire in this area.
2. The fire, fuelled by a residual build up of
grease, is drawn into the area above the
oven igniting any flammable material in this
area.
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE OVEN IS
INSTALLED CORRECTLY IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE
