the entire responsibility of the installation. The installation has to comply with the legislation and
the standards in force in your country.
How to stick the gasket:
The gasket supplied with the
cooktop
prevents the intrusion of liquids into the cabinet below.
Its installation has to be done carefully, as described below.
Fitting - installing:
•
Cut out sizes of the worktop:
Reference
Cut-size
FCE905B1
850 x 490 mm
•
Ensure that there is a distance of 50 mm between the
cooktop
and the wall or sides.
•
The
cooktops
are classified as “Y” class for heat protection. Ideally the
cooktop
should be
installed
with plenty of space on either side. There may be a wall at the rear and tall units
or a wall
at one side.
On the other side, however, no unit or divider must stand
higher than
the
cooktop
.
•
The piece of furniture or the support in which the
cooktop
is to be fitted, as well as the
edges of
furniture, the laminate coatings and the glue used to fix them, must be able
to resist
temperatures of up to 75 °C.
•
The mural rods of edge must be heat-resisting.
•
Not to install the
cooktop
to the top of a not ventilated oven or a dishwasher.
•
To guarantee under the bottom of the
cooktop
casing
a space of 20 mm
to ensure a
good air
circulation of the electronic device.
•
If a drawer is placed under the work, avoid to put into this drawer flammable objects (for
example: sprays) or not heat-resistant objects.
•
Materials which are often used to make worktops expand on contact with water. To protect
the cut out edge, apply a coat of varnish or special sealant. Particular care must be given
to applying the adhesive joint supplied with the
cooktop
to prevent any leakage into
the
supporting furniture. This gasket guaranties a correct seal when used in conjunction
with
smooth work top surfaces.
•
The safety gap between the
cooktop
and the
range
hood placed above must respect
the
indications of the hood manufacturer. In case of absence of instructions respect a
distance
minimum of 650 mm.
•
The connection cord should not be subjected, after building-in, to any mechanical
constraint (for instance constraint given by a drawer installed below).
•
WARNING:
Use only
cooktop
guards designed by the manufacturer of the cooking
appliance
or indicated by the manufacturer of the appliance in the instructions for use as
suitable or
cooktop
guards incorporated in the appliance. The use of inappropriate
guards can cause
accidents.
Stick the gasket (2) two millimeters
from the external edge of the glass,
after removing the protection tape (3).
