Installation
Preparing the worktop
 Create the worktop cut-out as shown
in the cooktop diagram. Remember
to maintain the minimum safety
distances (see “Installation – Safety
distances”).
 Seal the cut surfaces of wooden
worktops with a suitable sealant to
avoid swelling caused by moisture.
The sealant must be heat-resistant.
Make sure the sealant does not
come into contact with the top
surface of the worktop.
The sealing strip ensures that the
cooktop will sit securely in the cut-out
without slipping. Any gap between the
frame and worktop will become
smaller over time.
Installing the cooktop
 Attach the sealing strip provided
underneath the edge of the cooktop.

Feed the mains connection cable
down through the worktop cut-out.

Place the cooktop centrally in the
cut-out. When doing this make sure
that the seal of the appliance sits
flush with the worktop on all sides.
This is important to ensure an
effective seal with the worktop.
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner
radii (
≤
R4) can be carefully scribed to
suit.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone).

Connect the cooktop to the electricity
supply (see “Installation – Electrical
connection”).

Connect the cooktop to the gas
supply (see “Installation – Gas
connection”).
