Proper arrangements must be taken in designing the furniture unit, in order to avoid any contact with the bottom of the hob which can be heated when it is operated. The recommended solution is shown in diagram 3.

The panel fitted under the hob ("a") should be easily removable to allow easy access if technical assistance is needed. The space behind the kitchen unit ("b") can be used for connections.

2.Place the hob in the cut out, taking care that it is centred.

3.Fix the hob with the relevant fixing clamps, supplied with the injectors kit (see diagram).When the screws have been tightened, the excess seal can be removed.
