Installation

FITTING THE HOB

Unpack the hob from the carton.

Lower the hob into the worktop ensuring the mains lead is fed into the base unit and is not trapped under the flanges.

Fix the hob to the worktop (see Fig 2)

Connect the hob to the electrical supply (see INSTALLATION).

Ensure that the hob is functioning correctly prior to use. Instruct the user in the operation of the hob.

IMPORTANT: The ceramic glass hob must be installed on a perfectly flat, level surface. Any warping caused by improper installation can alter the characteristics of the hob as well as its performance.

BEFORE USE

WARNING: During storage, the glue used for the joints leaves a slight oily residue on the glass. We recommend that you remove this residue before you turn on the hob, using a common cleaning product (non-abrasive polishing cream). During the first few hours of use, the hob may emit a ‘rubbery’ odour which will soon disappear.

HOB

If the hob is installed over an oven, in order to prevent any overheating of the electronic components of the hob, you must leave a space between the top of the oven and the bottom of the worktop, which measures 560mm wide by 8mm high. WARNING: If the hob is not being installed above an oven unit, then a shelf the same depth and width as the hob MUST be fitted underneath the hob. The distance between the shelf and the lowest part of the hob MUST BE AT LEAST 5mm.

Avoid installing a dishwasher under the hob. If this is unavoidable, make sure you install a watertight separation between the two appliances.
