1Safety Instructions for the Installer

•A device must be provided in the electrical installa- tion which allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm

Suitable isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses are to be re- moved from the holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.

•In respect of fire protection, this appliance corre- sponds to type Y (EN 60 335-2-6). Only this type of appliance may be installed with a high cupboard or wall on one side.

•Drawers may not be fitted underneath the hob.

•The installation must guarantee shock protection.

•The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted

must satisfy the stability requirements of DIN 68930.

•For protection against moisture, all cut surfaces are to be sealed with a suitable sealant.

•On tiled work surfaces, the joints in the area where the hob sits must be completely filled with grout.

•On natural, artificial stone, or ceramic tops, the snap action springs must be bonded in place with a suitable artificial resin or mixed adhesive.

•Ensure that the seal is correctly seated against the work surface without any gaps. Additional silicon sealant must not be applied; this would make re- moval more difficult when servicing.

•The hob must be pressed out from below when re- moved.

•Clean the worktop around the cut-out area.

•Stick the single-sided adhesive sealing tape pro- vided on the underside of the hob around the out- side edge ensuring that it is not stretched. The two ends of the tape should join in the middle of one side. After trimming the tape (allow it to overlap by 2-3 mm), press the two ends together.
