30 SI4548_6048-US-TB_en-13 Technical description
• Maintain the minimum distances to walls, other
devices and objects as represented in the
illustration. In order to maintain sufficient
ventilation, when installing the Sunny Island a
minimum clearance of 12 in. (30 cm) at the sides
and top must be maintained. Operation and
reading are made easier by installing the
Sunny Island with its display at eye level, and by
keeping a distance of 20 in. (50 cm) from the front.
• All lines are routed to the outside through the
underside of the enclosure. Therefore a minimum
clearance of 20 in (50 cm) must be observed here.
