Fitting the Hob

Unpacking the hob:

Take care not to lose or mishandle any parts.

Fitting position of the hob:

This appliance must be installed a minimum of 50mm from any back wall and a minimum of 180mm away from any adja- cent vertical surfaces, e.g. a tall cupboard end panel. This may be reduced to 100mm if the adjacent surface is resistant to fire (tiles or steel, for example). These dimensions are shown in Fig.6.

Ventilation requirements:

This appliance must be installed to allow air to flow freely to the air intake (A in figure 3) and from the air outlet (B in figure 3). Failure to allow sufficient ventilation could cause damage to the hob and constitutes incorrect installation, which is not covered by the warranty.

If fitting a cooker hood above the hob:

If a cooker hood is to be installed above the hob, the height of the hood above the hob must be at least 600mm (650mm is recommended) (Fig.5). If the instructions supplied with the hood dictate that the hood must be installed at a height greater than 600mm, then that height is the minimum required.

Wall furniture requirements:

The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is 900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units (including light pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material resistant to fire (steel, for example)

Notes:

Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail.

This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units capable of withstanding temperatures of 65°C or greater above ambient temperature.

Never place perishable foods, cleaning products or flammable items in the cupboard below the appliance.

If an oven is to be installed below the hob, the thermal safety system on the hob will not allow the hob to be used at the same time as a pyrolytic programme on the oven.

The hob is equipped with an anti-overheating safety device that can be activated if the hob is installed over an oven that is not sufficiently ventilated. In the event that this occurs, the control panel will show a series of small lines. We recommend that you increase the ventilation of the hob by creating an opening in the side of the cabinet (8 cm x 5 cm).

Ensure that the top rail is removed prior to installation, and that no unit cross member is blocking the air outlets.

If the hob is to be located above a working drawer, we recommend that the drawer is not used for storing soft items, for example dusters or towels; this is to minimize the risk of the cooling system air intakes being obstructed.
