3. GENERAL SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION REGULATIONS
3.1. Personnel responsible for using the equipment
The use of the equipment is reserved for trained personnel.
Personnel who perform any action on the oven, such as operation, cleaning,
installation, handling, etc., must be familiar with the safety regulations and
the Operating Instructions.
Do not allow unauthorized personnel to use, handle or clean the
equipment.
3.2. Electrical hazard
Work on the electrical supply side and access to live parts may only be carried out by
qualified personnel under their own responsibility. In any case, such access must be made
with the equipment disconnected from the power supply.
If the appliance is placed on a cart or on tables that have some mobility, do not allow it to
move while connected to the power supply to avoid possible damage to wiring, drainage
pipes or water inlets. If the equipment is to be moved or repositioned, the cables and the
drainage and water intake pipes must be disconnected.
3.3. Thermal hazard
When the equipment is in operation, the door should be opened slowly and carefully to
avoid possible burns from steam or hot air that may escape from inside the cooking
chamber.
Keep the ventilation openings free of obstacles. Do not install the
equipment in the vicinity of flammable products. Avoid positioning the
oven near heat sources such as stoves, grills, fryers, etc.

4. RECEPTION, TRANSPORT AND POSITIONING
Before carrying out the installation, the dimensions of the site where the equipment is to be
placed and the electrical and water connections must be verified and seen to be within the
parameters detailed in section 4.3.
4.1. Reception
Once the oven has been received, check that the model purchased corresponds to the
order.
Check that the packaging has not been damaged during transport and that no parts of the
equipment are missing. If you detect any anomaly or problem, contact your dealer
immediately.
4.2. Transport
The equipment should be transported in its original packaging to the closest location to the
point of installation to avoid damage as much as possible. It is recommended to keep the
original packaging until the equipment is properly installed and in operation.
To move the equipment and place it in your workspace, the following observations should
be taken into account:
-The measurements of the different models to pass through narrow places (corridors,
doors, narrow spaces). See chapter 2.
-The handling must be done with the necessary personnel to move the load of the
furniture taking into account the current occupational safety regulations at the place
of installation.
-The oven must always be in an upright position during transport. It must be lifted
perpendicularly to the ground and transported parallel to it.
-Make sure that during transport it does not tip over and is not hit by any object.
Be careful with the legs and the siphon when positioning the oven on the
final location.

4.3. Positioning
-Place the oven at a comfortable distance from the wall so that the electrical and water
connections can be made. There must be a minimum clearance from the oven parts
to allow for proper ventilation and cooling. This minimum distance is:
o50mm on the left and right sides
o50mm from the back
o500mm from the top
-The equipment should be placed on a Mychef support table or wall mount.
-If there are sources of heat or steam near the equipment (stove, grill, iron, deep fryer,
pasta cooker, kettle, tilting frying pan etc.), these must be at a distance of more than
1 meter.
-Check that the oven is not exposed to hot air or vapours in the areas where the
cooling fans are located (front right and rear left).
