IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION
Risk of damage caused by incorrect installation.
Incorrect installation can cause damage to the ProLine element.
The ProLine element must only be installed by a qualified person.
Damage from falling objects.
Take care not to damage the ProLine element when installing upper cabinets or
a ventilation hood above it.
Install the upper cabinets and ventilation hood before installing the ProLine ele-
ment.
The room in which the ProLine element is installed must conform
to all relevant local and national building regulations and safety regu-
lations.
The countertop must be heat-resistant (up to 212°F / 100°C), so
that it does not become deformed or the veneer detached. The wall
strips must be heat-resistant as well.
A gas cooktop/wok must not be installed directly next to a broiler/
fryer as the gas flames could ignite the fat in the fryer. It is essential
to maintain a distance of at least 11 5/16" (288mm) between the gas
appliance and a broiler/fryer.
The ProLine element must not be installed above refrigerators/
freezers, dishwashers, or washers/dryers.
When installing the ProLine element, make sure that the gas pipe
and power cord cannot come into contact with hot appliance parts.
The power cord and any flexible gas connection pipes must be in-
stalled in such a way that they do not come into contact with any
moving kitchen parts (e.g., a drawer), and cannot become trapped.
Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.
