5. Installation Instructions

 

 
UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE 

Remove all packaging before use and check to make sure that the appliance is in perfect 
condition. If you have any doubts do not use the appliance and call your supplier. 
Some parts on the appliance are protected by a plastic film. This protective film must be 
removed before the appliance is used. We recommend carefully slitting the plastic film along the 
edges with a sharp knife or pin.  

 

The packaging materials should carefully discarded and not left within easy reach of 
children as they are a potential safety hazard. 

 

INSTALLING AND FIXING THE HOB 

Your hob can be fitted to any worktop with a thickness of 30 to 40 mm. 
It is advisable to isolate the appliance from the piece of furniture below with a separator, leaving 
a depression space of at least 10 mm (fig. 4) 
No overhanging surface or cooker hood should be closer to the hotplate than 750 mm (29½”). 
Fix in position in accordance with fig. 5. If fitting a 600 mm bridging unit above the 700mm hob 
unit, the sides of adjacent cabinets may be lower than 760 mm down to 334 mm provided they 
are resistant to heat and steam. 

 

 

The hob has a special seal which prevents liquid from entering the cabinet. Follow these 
instructions in order to correctly apply this seal: 

Detach the seals from their backing, checking that the transparent protection still 
adheres to the seal itself. 

Turn over the hob and correctly position seal (S) (fig. 6) under the edge of the hob 
itself, so that the outer part of the seal itself perfectly matches the outer edge of the 
hob. The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping. 

Evenly and securely fix the seal to the hob, pressing it firmly in place. 

Remove the strip of protective paper from the seal. Insert the hooks (G) fig.7 or  (C) 
fig. 8) into their relative housings on the hob and place into the prepared hole in the 
cabinet. Lock in place with the relative fixing screws (see fig. 7/8).
