TECHNICAL INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLER

Read this chapter carefully, as it contains vital information for a safe and secure installation.

Recommendations

The appliance must be installed by a qualified technician in compliance with the instructions provided by the manufacturer.

The latter denies all responsibility for improper installation which may harm persons and animals and damage property.

When you have removed all packing, check whether the appliance is intact.

Never leave the packing components (plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails etc.) within reach of children, since these are a source of potential danger - dispose of safely.

Built-in installation

This hob can be built into a worktop simply by cutting out the corresponding space. All support types are suitable, only some plastic materials are unadvised, as heat of up to 100˚C could cause their deformation. Make sure you leave 4cm between the rear cut-out of the hob and the back of the worktop, to avoid burning the wall or the backsplash, especially if the latter is laminated.

Fig. 3

If the hob is fitted above an oven, in order to avoid any overheating on the part of the hob’s electronic components, it is vital that you leave a space 560mm wide and 8mm high, between the top edge of the oven and the bottom of the worktop.

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 fitting a dishwasher underneath the hob. If this is unavoidable, place a watertight separating element between the two appliances.
