Important information for secure attachment of the anti tip brackets:

The supplied set contains fastening screws for various applications. Select the fastening screws according to the local conditions.

If the supplied fastening screws do not permit secure attachment of the anti tip brackets and therefore the appliance, another method must be used to attach the anti tip brackets securely.

qSpecify the attachment points of the anti tip brackets.

Specify the detailed dimensions according to the section on •Installation dimensions" starting on page 9.
