The installation, maintenance and gas replacement for
the gas hob should be performed by technicians with
the proper qualifications for gas maintenance.
Before installation, please carefully check the
nameplate on your gas hob. Make sure that the gas
type specified on the nameplate (which is stuck to the
back shell) is consistent with the gas that you are
currently using. If you have any doubts on whether the
gas you are using is consistent, please contact our
local service center.
Install a special gas valve between the indoor gas
connecting hose and the gas hob, in order to switch on
and off the gas. It should be installed in such a way that
in the event an accident occurs during operation period,
the user will be able to immediately shut of the gas. In
addition, please ensure this gas valve can be accessed
at all times.
Please install the domestic range hood with an exhaust
pipe in accordance with the local gas hob installation
specifications and guides. This type of range hood
should have a distance of at least 750 mm to the gas
hob.
The gas hob has already received a strict gas leakage
performance test before leaving the factory. Do not
dismantle the faceplate or inner parts during the
installation of the gas hob, to avoid later gas poisoning
and fire risk resulting from the gas leakage during the
operation.
For the throttle adjustment, it is recommended that the
gas burner settings should be adjusted to the optimal
condition by the technicians during the installation and
debugging period, according to the throttle adjustment
method on page 12.
Please ensure that when the installation is completed,
the gas hose connected to the gas hob does not touch
any movable object in the cupboard, e.g. drawer, roller
etc.
If your gas hob requires gas replacement, please
contact our service center (at least one week in
advance), and we will make the proper adjustments to
your gas hob as soon as possible.
Or
If you move house and intend to reinstall the gas hob to
your new house, please check if the gas supply for your
new house is consistent with the gas specified on the
nameplate. If it is not consistent, then contact our local
service center and we will make the proper adjustments
to your gas hob as soon as possible.

Installation Instructions
The gas hob should only be installed in the home kitchen.
Do not use it in other rooms.
Do not place the gas hob in the bathroom, bedroom,
basement, or use it where there are flammable, explosive,
corrosive materials in close proximity.
Do not place flammable or explosive objects on or around
the gas hob, e.g. curtains.
If there are flammable materials around the gas hob, e.g.
wooden wall, low ceiling etc, then the gas hob should be
installed at a distance of at least 150 mm from the
wooden wall, and at least 1 m to the kitchen ceiling.
Fire-proof materials around the gas hob are not limited by
this distance.
If the gas hob operates at a high flame for a long time,
then those appliances without cooling devices such as
disinfecting cabinet, baking oven and microwave oven are
not allowed to be installed under the gas hob.
(Bosch has precisely designed cooling fan devices for all
down-placed products, which will be installed under the
gas hob. Therefore it is essential to design the placement
location and proper ventilation of appliances according to
the installation specifications in the operation manual.)
Do not install the gas hob above an oven, refrigerator,
cooler, dish washer or other similar electric kitchen
appliances, as all of these provide poor ventilation. Below
the gas hob, install only the common drawers made of
flame retardant materials. Do not place heat sensitive or
inflammable objects in the drawers or cupboards below
the hob, e.g. aerosols or shoeshine chemicals.
If the gas hob is installed in a cupboard, the plastic
coating and adhesive bonded panel in it should be
subjected to the fire-resistant glue treatment (heat
resistant glue); otherwise, deformation or scaling of the
surface-layers will likely result, especially on the sides of
the cupboard.
The gas hob should be installed on a solid, flat countertop.
Countertop’s minimum thickness should be more than 16mm.
Countertop’s minimum width should be more than 550mm,
however the width of 600mm is recommended.
For the size of the cutout in the countertop, please refer to
the cutout template provided with the gas hob.
The cupboard should have a tapping size which meets the
ventilation requirements with the air opening covers an
area of no less than 30cm
2
; otherwise the lack of
ventilation might cause an explosion resulting from the
leakage of gas.
