control panel, the automatic switch-off will be activated. For the standard times of the different power settings, please refer to the following table:

The appliance is equipped with a child lock to prevent children from turning on the appliance accidentally.
Installation / Fitting
CAUTION:
• The stovetop has to be installed so that the heat can be dissipated. Air intake and outlet may not be blocked.
• The worktop, back walls, veneers, laminates, and adhesives used must be sufficiently heat-resistant (up to 100°C).
Conditions for the installation location
• The appliance may only be installed on one side next to higher kitchen furniture, appliances, or walls.
• The appliance should not be installed directly next to refrigerators or freezers. Due to the heat dissipation, the energy consumption of the cooling
appliances will increase unnecessarily.
• At least 5 cm free space must remain under the entire cut-out for the appliance. Heat-sensitive objects (base cabinet, drawer, etc.) may not be
located in this area. Possibly existing side-walls or drawer cabinets must be cut out, or disassembled accordingly.
• When installing the device, ensure sufficient air circulation “Fig. 1”.

Preparing the worktop for installation of the hob
• The worktop must be at least 3 cm thick and at least 62 cm deep. It must lie horizontally and must be sealed off against overflowing liquids on the
wall side.
• The hob must be framed by at least 5 cm of worktop.
• The cut surfaces (cutout edges) must be sealed with special varnish, silicone rubber, or cast raisin in order to prevent swelling caused by humidity.
• Clean the cutout area of the worktop.
Prepare the cutout of the worktop using the dimensional drawing in “Fig. 2”.
NOTE:
Prior to sawing, stick a wide adhesive tape onto the outer edge of the cut-out to prevent jigsaw marks on the worktop.
Attach the sealing to the bottom of the hob frame before installing the hob.
