Safety instructions for the kitchen fitter
•Veneers,
•Ensure that all live connections are safely insulated when installing the hob.
•Cover strips between the wall and the worktop behind the hob which are made of solid wood are permissible as long as mini- mum clearances in accordance with the installation diagrams are maintained.
•Minimum clearances of the hob
•For installation directly next to a tall cupboard, a safety dis- tance of at least 40 mm. The side surface of the tall cupboard should be fitted with heat resistant material. Due to working requirements, however, the distance should be at least 300 mm.
•The clearance between the hob and an extraction hood must be at least as large as that stipulated in the assembly instruc- tions for the cooker hood.
•The packaging materials (plastic foil, polystyrene, nails etc.) must be kept out of reach of children as these parts are poten- tially dangerous. Small parts can be swallowed and there is a danger of suffocation.
Installation
Important
•If the cooking surface is located above furniture parts (side panels, drawers, etc.), then an intermediate bottom must be inserted at a minimum distance of 20 mm in order to prevent accidental contact with the underside of the cooking surface. The intermediary shelf may only be removed by tools.
•To avoid danger of fire, make sure that no combustible objects which could easily catch fire or become deformed on exposure to heat are directly next to or above the surface.
Sealing of cooking zone
Before installation, correctly insert the sealing unit delivered with the hob.
•In addition, make sure that no liquids can penetrate between the edge of the hob and the worktop or between the hob and the wall and come into contact with any electrical appliances.
•When installing a hob into an uneven worktop, e.g. with a cera- mic or similar covering (tiles etc.), the seal on the hob is to be removed and the seal between the hob and worktop made with plastic sealing materials (putty).
•The hob must under no circumstances be sealed with sili- cone sealant!This would make it impossible to remove the hob at a later date without damaging it.
Ventilation
•The back wall of the cabinet must be open in the area of the
•The front transverse strip of the furniture must be removed so that an opening is provided for air flow underneath the worktop over the entire width of the unit.
•Remove any transverse strips underneath the worktop at least in the area of the worktop
