1. Please note that a minimum cut out of 300mm x 825mm is required to facilitate installation, removal, ventilation and servicing.

Minimum Cutout Diagram

1. This cabinet requires 2.5mm clearance on both sides, 5mm at the top and 30mm clearance at the rear. A ventilation grid MUST be installed in the 30mm clearance at the rear. Because hot air rises it is imperative that a grille with a Minimum grid size of 200mm x 40mm is installed at the top of the back wall or on either side at the rear at the top giving cool fresh air full access to flow into the 30mm gap at the rear of the cabinet. This means that you must not install the grille close to other appliances such as an oven or to an area that is sealed or with out access to fresh cool air. (You MUST call the Vintec Service Department on 1800 771 776 if you do not understand any part of this statement. Failing to comply with the above specifications could result in WARRANTY void.)

1. This cabinet is front venting. The cabinet draws air from the rear and expels through the grille under the door at the front. If a kick board is to be placed in front of the ventilation grill at the front a grill must be fitted in to the kick board with a minimum air flow allowance of 150cm2.

1. As with most appliances of today, this cabinet has sensitive electronic components which are susceptible to damage through lightning and electricity supply faults. It is therefore advised to use a power surge protector to avoid problems of this nature and to avoid piggybacking with other appliances.

• be unencumbered and well ventilated;
• be well away from any heat source and direct sunlight;
• not be too damp (laundry, pantry, bathroom etc.);
• have a flat floor,

The ventilation requirement indicated for indoor use must be increased when situated outdoors by at least 2 cm on both sides & 3cm on top, 3 cm at the back with a large vent at the top of the back wall to facilitate heat evacuation. Because hot air rises it is imperative that a grille with a Minimum grid size of 200mm x 40mm is installed at the top of the back wall or on either side at the rear at the top giving cool fresh air full access to flow into the 30mm gap at the rear.
