Wall furniture requirements:
The minimum height of any cabinet immediately above the hob is
900mm. The minimum height of any adjacent units (including light
pelmets) is 400mm, unless they are manufactured from a material
resistant to fire (steel, for example).
Important notes:
•
Do not position this appliance above a refrigeration unit. The heat
generated may cause the refrigeration unit to fail.
•
This appliance is designed to be installed into cabinet units capable
of withstanding temperatures of 65°C or greater above ambient
temperature.
•
Never place perishable foods, cleaning products or flammable items
in the cupboard below the appliance.
•
If the hob is to be located above a working drawer, we recommend
that the drawer is not used for storing soft items, for example
dusters or towels; this is to minimise the risk of the cooling system
air intakes being obstructed.

If fitting a cooker hood above the hob:
If a cooker hood is to be installed
above the hob, the height of the hood
above the hob must be at least 600mm
(650mm is recommended) (Fig.6). If
the instructions supplied with the hood
dictate that the hood must be installed
at a height greater than 600mm,
then that height is the minimum
required.
