General installation tips
Tiled worktop
Do not use any sealant unless expressly instructed to do so. The sealing strip under the edge of the top part of the appliance provides a sufficient seal for the worktop.
Do not use sealant between the frame of the top part of the hob and the worktop.
This could cause difficulties if the hob ever needs to be taken out for servicing and possibly result in damage to the frame or the worktop.
Grout lines a and the hatched area underneath the hob frame must be smooth and even. If they are not the hob will not sit flush with the worktop and the sealing strip underneath the hob will not provide a good seal between the hob and the worktop.
