a) In order to ensure sufficient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing components flammable
and sensitive to heat and from materials with flammable structure (see CE MARKING INFORMATION -
minimum safety distances are shown on the product data plate and lower values must not be used.
b) in front of the furnace door, in the radiation area, there must be no flammable or heat-sensitive objects or material at a distance of
less than 80 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm where a rear-ventilated, heat-resistant protection device is installed in front
of the whole component to protect;
c) If the product is installed on a no totally refractory floor, one must foresee a fireproof background. The floors made of inflammable
material, such as moquette, parquet or cork etc., must be replaced by a layer of no-inflammable material (size according to
regional law) In case the replacement of the floor is not possible, the appliance shall be placed on a minimum 12 cm thick
