Safety distances to the sides of the
hob
Ideally the hob should be installed with
plenty of space on either side. There
may be a wall at the rear and a tall unit
or wall at one side. On the other side,
however, no unit or divider should stan-
d higher than the hob (see illustrations).
The following minimum distances
should be adhered to for safety
reasons:
– 50 mm to the right or left of the
worktop cut-out to the nearest piece
of furniture (e.g. tall unit).
– 50 mm from the worktop cut-out to
the rear wall.
