Fitting the Hob
Unpacking the hob:
Take care not to lose, drop or
mishandle any parts.
Fitting position of the hob:
This appliance must be installed a
minimum of 50mm from any back wall
and a minimum of 55mm away from
any adjacent vertical surfaces, e.g. a
tall cupboard end panel. This may
be reduced to 50mm if the adjacent
surface is resistant to fire (tiles or steel
for example). These dimensions are
shown in Fig.8 on page 28.
Ventilation requirements:
This appliance must be installed to
allow air to flow freely to the air intake
and from the air outlet. An air gap of
25mm is recommended immediately
below the hob.
Failure to allow sufficient ventilation
could cause problems with operation
or damage to the hob and constitutes
incorrect installation, which is not
covered by the product’s warranty
(Figs. 4 and 5).
