Be sure that once the appliance has been installed, it is easily accessible for the service engineer in the event that a repair is required.
If the appliance is later used as a freestanding appliance, the original worktop must be reassembled.
The plinth on freestanding appliances is not adjustable.
Caution! It is necessary to protect the underside of the kitchen worktop from condensation. A plastic top cover can be purchased, contact your local John Lewis branch.
Levelling of the appliance
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the appliance door.
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.
If the appliance door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the level of the appliance is perfect.
