Prepare Installation Space
Create the cut-out in the countertop according to the
installation diagram. The angle of the cut surface to the
countertop must be 90°.
The lateral cut-out edges must be flat in order to ensure
that the retaining springs are positioned properly on the
appliance. With multi-layered countertops, secure strips
laterally in the cut-out if necessary.
After creating cut-out, remove shavings. Seal cut
surfaces in a heat- and water-resistant manner.
Observe minimum distance between device underside
and cabinet surfaces of
3
/
8
" (10 mm).
The worktop into which the cooktop is installed must be
heat-resistant up to 140° F (90 °C).
The worktop must be reinforced if it is less than
13
/
16
inch
(20 mm) thick.
If the thickness of the worktop into which the cooktop is
installed does not comply with the specifications,
reinforce the worktop using a fire- and water-resistant
material until it reaches the minimum thickness.
Otherwise, sufficient stability cannot be assured.
▯
The worktop into which the cooktop is installed should
withstand loads of approx. 133 lbs (60 kg).
▯
Confirm the cooktop is level only after it has been
installed.
Cutout dimensions
Ventilation
To assure that the appliance works correctly, the cooktop
MUST
be sufficiently ventilated.
Since the ventilation in the lower section of the appliance
requires a sufficient supply of fresh air, the cabinet must
be designed accordingly. The following is required for
this:
▯
A minimum clearance between the rear of the cabinet
and the kitchen wall, and between the surface of the
worktop and the upper area of the drawer.
▯
An opening at the top to the rear of the cabinet.
▯
If the minimum clearance of
13
/
16
inch (20 mm) is not
provided at the rear of the cabinet, you must create an
opening on the underside.
Note:
If the appliance is installed in an island unit or
another installation that is not described here, you must
ensure that the cooktop is sufficiently ventilated.
