Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the VW155BL requires careful measurement, as the unit is designed to fit into a standard aperture beneath a built-in oven. Ensure the dimensions (132.5 x 595 x 548 mm) are accounted for within your cabinetry layout. The push-push mechanism is sensitive to alignment; verify that the drawer slides are perfectly level during fitting to prevent sticking.
For daily maintenance, use a non-abrasive soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the black finish. Because the drawer can reach temperatures of 80°C, always exercise caution when removing items after a long cycle. Regularly check that the runners are free of debris to maintain smooth operation.
