Instructions for assembly

Safety instructions for kitchen unit fitters

• Veneers, adhesives and plastic surfaces of surrounding

furniture must be temperature resistant (at least 75°C). If the
veneers and surfaces are not sufficiently heat resistant they
may become deformed.

• 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
minimum clearances in accordance with the installation
diagrams are maintained.

• Minimum clearances of the hob cut-out towards the rear are to

be maintained in accordance with the installation diagram.

• For installation directly next to a tall cupboard, a safety

distance of at least 50 mm must be ensured. 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
instructions for the cooker hood.

• The packaging materials (plastic foil, polystyrene, nails etc.)

must be kept out of reach of children as these parts are
potentially dangerous. Small parts can be swallowed and there
is a danger of plastic sheeting causing suffocation.

Ventilation

• The induction hob is equipped with a ventilator. The ventilator

switches on or off automatically. If the temperature produced
by the electronic device exceeds a certain level, the ventilator
turns on in low speed. In case the induction hob is being used
intensively, the ventilator switches to a higher speed. If the
electronics was cooled sufficiently, the ventilator reduces the
speed and switches off automatically.

• Clearance between the induction hob and kitchen furniture or

built-in units must provide for sufficient ventilation of the
induction hob.

• If the power level of a cooking zone is automatically raised or

lowered (see section on thermal cut-off device) it is likely that
the cooling system does not cool sufficiently. In this case we
recommend that the back wall of the bottom kitchen unit in the
area of the worktop cut-out be opened and that the front
transverse strip of the unit be removed over the entire width of
the appliance in order to promote the circulation of air.

In order to better ventilate the hob, an air gap of 20 mm should be
left at the front.

Installation

Important information

• Avoid excessive thermal development from below e.g. from a

baking oven without a cross flow cooling device.

• The induction hob may not be used when pyrolysis operation

is taking place in a built-in oven.

• When installing the appliance on top of a drawer it is essential

to ensure that no sharp items are stored in the drawer since
these could become bent on the underside of the hob and
prevent the drawer from being opened and closed.

• If a shelf has been inserted underneath the hob, there must be

a clearance of at least 20 mm to the underside of the hob in
order to ensure that the hob is sufficiently ventilated.

• The hob may not be installed above refrigerators, freezers,

dishwashers, washing machines or dryers.

• 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 under the surface.

Sealing of the hob

Before installation, correctly insert the sealing unit delivered with
the hob.

• No liquids may 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

ceramic 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
silicone sealant!

This would make it impossible to remove the

hob at a later date without damaging it.

Working surface cut-out

Cut out the worktop recess accurately with a good, straight saw
blade or recessing machine. The cut edges should then be
sealed so that no moisture can penetrate.
The area is cut out as illustrated. The glass ceramic hob must
have a level and flush bearing. Any distortion may lead to
fracture of the glass panel. Make sure that the sealing of the hob
is properly seated.
