greater (typically 80-90°C).
• If there is no oven to be built in below the hob it is recommended
that, an isolation shelf should be fitted to protect the user from
high temperatures. If the hob is to be installed above a working
drawer, then a partition should be fitted to protect the contents
and user from the heat generated during use. This should be
fitted at least 75mm below the hob (measured from the gas hob
elbow). This panel should have a ventilation space at the rear of
greater than 30mm.
• Never place perishable foods in the cupboard below the
appliance.
How to install the hob
Overall dimensions of the hob:
Width: 590mm Depth: 520mm
Hob thickness: 52mm
Worktop cut-out dimensions:
Width: 560mm Depth: 490mm
A gap of 75mm is required below the hob for ventilation purposes
.
This must be measured from the gas hob elbow (Fig.9)
1. Make the required hole in the worktop. Note that before doing
this, check the instructions supplied with any cooker hood to
ensure that you will have the required clearance.
The cut-out
(Fig. 6)
shows a 61.5mm gap from the wall to the cut-out edge.
This is because the distance for the hob, when fitted, to the back
wall is to be at least 50mm.
2. Secure the hob to the worktop using the fixing brackets and
screws supplied, as shown in the following diagram (Fig. 8).
