Instructions for the installer

2 POSITIONING OF THE HOB

The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work so must be carried out by a competent tradesman.

Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood, as long as they are heat- resistant (T 90°C).

2.1Attachment to support structure, traditional built-in

model (fig. 1)

Create an opening with the

dimensions shown in the figure in the work surface, observing a minimum distance of 50 mm from the rear edge. This appliance can be

installed next to walls that are higher than the work surface,

as long as the distance "X" is 1) kept between the appliance and the wall, as shown in the

figure, to avoid damage from overheating. Make sure there is a minimum of 750 mm between the gas rings and any shelf that may be installed directly above them.

Carefully position the gasket provided all around the outer edge of the hole in the work surface as shown in figure 2, pressing it down lightly to ensure it adheres properly. The front and rear sides of the gasket must skim the hole. Having done this, place the hob on top of the gasket and using the screws and fixing brackets “C” or “D” (depending on the depth of the worktop – Fig.4) secure the hob to the support structure, ensuring it is level. The brackets “C” secure the hob to a structure having a depth of 20 to 30 mm. The brackets “D” on the other hand, are for use with worktops having a depth of 30 to 50 mm.

Carefully trim any excess from edge “A” (Fig.3) of the gasket. The distances in figure 2 refer to the hole on the inner side of the gasket.
