Installation
INSTALLATION AND SETUP SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT BY AN AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN IN LINE WITH
CURRENT INSTALLATION STANDARDS.
Positioning the hob
To install these models, an opening with the dimensions
shown in figure 2 will be cut into the unit’s worktop.
The worktop fastening system is suitable for units 20, 30
and 40 mm thick.
The minimum distance between the surface supporting
the cooking pans and the lower part of the kitchen unit or
the hood located above the hob should be 650 mm. If the
hood’s installation instructions recommend that the gap is
greater than this, you should follow this advice.
The unit where the hob and oven will be located will be
suitably fixed.
INSTALLATION WITH CUTLERY DRAWER OR LOWER
CABINET
In vitroceramic hobs, if you would like to have a cabinet
or a cutlery drawer under the hob, it is necessary to put a
separation board in between the two. The board should be
situated 20 mm below the underside of the hob, leaving a
free space of at least 20 mm until the end of the cabinet
(figure 1).
This prevents accidental contact with the hot surface of
the casing of the heating elements under the apparatus
(figure 1).
Please do not store objects that can obstruct the
hob fans or possibly flammable materials in the draw
-
er.
INSTALLATION WITH FAN OVEN UNDER THE HOB
The oven should be installed according to the correspond-
ing manual.
An opening of 20 mm should be made in the back part of
the cabinet in order to allow cold air to enter (see figure 1).
When hobs are handled before being installed,
care should be taken in case there is any protruding
part or sharp edge which could cause injury.
When installing units or applian ces above the
hob, the hob should be protected by a board so that
the glass cannot be damaged by accidental blows or
heavy weights.
