INSTALLATION

Check the appliance is electrically safe when you have finished.

Positioning the Hob

The hob should be fitted into a work surface, which is at least 600mm deep. In position, it has a maximum thickness of 5mm from the top of the work surface. The cut-out dimensions are shown in (Fig.5-1)and the minimum clearances in (Fig.5-2). The minimum recommended distances from the hob to nearby surfaces are shown in (Fig.5-3).

*Any hob hood should be installed in accordance with the hood manufacturer’s instructions.

Surfaces of furniture and walls at the sides and rear of the hob should be heat, splash and steam resistant. Certain types of vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to heat damage and discolouration.

We cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by normal use of the hob to any material that de-laminates or discolours at temperatures less than 65°C above room temperature.

For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted immediately behind the hob.

Fixing the Hob

The hob must be sealed to the work surface to prevent liquid from entering into the cabinet. A tape seal is supplied with the hob.

Carefully follow these instructions to correctly apply the seal: Turn the hob over and place in on a secure, level surface. Detach the seal from the backing, checking that the transparent protection still adheres to the seal itself. Carefully position the seal along the edge of the hob. Take special care in the corners making sure there are no gaps. The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping.

If the surface that the hob is to be fitted to is tiled or is not reasonably smooth, additional sealing with a waterproof silicone sealant may be required.

Turn the hob back the right way up and position it in the worktop cut-out.

Secure the hob to the worktop using the brackets supplied. The positioning of the bracket is dependent on the thickness of the worktop as shown in (Fig.5-4).

Note: Slide the optional sleeve onto the bracket if fitting to thin work surfaces.

Locate the bracket to the slot on the hob base and then tighten the retaining screw until it is locked to the worktop.
