CAUTION
Sharp edges. Use protective gloves when
installing the plate.
For safety reasons, the heat shield must be properly
installed. This prevents components from overheating
as a result of the recirculation of hot air from the
cooktop.
The heat shield is the same width as the cooktop. For
shipping, it is screwed to the burner box.
After unpacking the cooktop, unscrew the heat shield.
The heat shield will be able to rotate freely, as shown
in the illustration.
Installing appliance

Only for flush installation:
Check appliance for functionality first (see
section “Check the installation").
Fill in the gap between the worktop and the
ceramic cooktop using a suitable heat-resistant
silicone adhesive (e.g. Novalsil® S70, Ottoseal®
S70). Smooth the sealing joint using the
smoothing agent recommended by the silicone
manufacturer. Check the usage information for
the silicone adhesive.
