!3 ATTACH THE ANTI-TIP BRACKET

IMPORTANT!

Ensure the door of the appliance is closed when rolling into the cabinetry. DO NOT attempt to open the door until the
appliance is fully installed. The anti-tip bracket and fittings supplied must be fitted to the wall of the finished enclosure
to withstand a 220lb (100kg) load. Ensure that the anti-tip bracket is installed correctly to prevent the possibility of the
appliance tipping forward when the door is open.

WARNING!

Read the following reminders before fastening with masonry plugs and/or screws to avoid serious injury or possible death:



Ensure the screws avoid electrical, gas and water conduits.



Ensure that the surface where the bracket is fastened can withstand a 220lb (100kg) load.



Ensure light-weight masonry material such as cinder block and new concrete (no curing time) are not used in installation.



Do not use metallic materials that may corrode, stain and/or damage the enclosure.

1 Project horizontally from the bottom end of the

alcove return towards the back wall (A).

– If there are no wall studs, the bracket can be

installed to solid brick walls with masonry
plugs. (However, not recommended to be
used on perforated brick or hollow concrete
bricks).

3 Drill screw holes to the marked locations.
4 For wooden/plaster board wall installation:

Skip to step 5.
For solid wall installation: Hammer 10x30mm
