
In order for the range to function properly, it requires an adequate
supply of cool air. Ensure that the air flow is not impaired. Also be
sure that the cool air supply is not excessively heated by other heat
sources (e.g. solid fuel stoves).

If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to
the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until
the appliance has completely cooled down.

Do not install kitchen cabinets above the range, since reaching
over a hot stovetop to access the cabinets can result in burns. If it is
necessary to install cabinets, you can reduce the risk of burns by
installing a range hood that extends at least 4 3/4" (12 cm) past the
bottom of the cabinets.

The water shutoff valve must be accessible after the range has
been installed.

The integrated Waterproof System offers protection against water
damage if the following conditions are met:
– The range is properly installed (connected to electric and water
supply).
– The range is repaired immediately whenever damage is detected.
– The water supply is shut off during extended periods of non-use
(e.g. vacation).

Hard water, water containing minerals and water from reverse
osmosis filtering systems can damage the range. Only use filtered,
softened and demineralized water from the building's plumbing to
supply the range.
