Installation

Preparing the worktop

^Make the worktop cut-out following the dimensions applicable. Remember to maintain a minimum safety distance of 50 mm from the back wall, as well as from any tall unit or side wall to the right or left of the hob.

See "Safety instructions for installation".

^Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable heat-resistant sealant to avoid swelling caused by moisture.

If, during installation, you find that the seals on the corners of the frame are not flush with the worktop, the corner radius ß R4, can be carefully scribed to suit.

These hobs have a seal underneath them to keep the hob securely in position. Clamps are not required. Any gap between the frame and worktop will reduce with time.

Installing the hob

^Feed the hob connection cable down through the cut-out.

^Place the hob centrally in the cut-out. When doing this make sure that the seal under the hob sits flush with the worktop on all sides. This is important to ensure an effective seal all round. Do not use sealant.

^Connect the hob to the mains.

^Check that the hob works.
