WARNING

Never obstruct or modify the air inlet. This may create a fire hazard.

Only noncombustible materials (i.e. brick, tile, slate, steel or other materials with a UL fire rating of Zero) may be used to cover the black surface of the appliance. A 300° F minimum adhesive may be used to attach facing materials to the black surface.
