Preparing the countertop
^
For the countertop cut-out use the
dimensions given in the illustration.
Observe the
safety clearances
(see
Safety instructions for installation).
^
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Ensure that the sealant does not get
on the top surface of the countertop.
This cooktop has a seal underneath
to keep it securely in position. Spring
clips are not required.
The gap between the frame and the
countertop will get smaller over time.
^
Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see Electrical connection).
Inserting the cooktop
^
Feed the power supply cable down
through the countertop cut-out.
^
Center the cooktop in the cut-out.
Make sure that the seal under the
cooktop sits flush with the countertop
on all sides. This is important to
ensure an effective seal.
NEVER apply an additional sealant
such as silicone!
If the seal at the corners does not lie
flush on the worktop, the corner radii
ß
R4 should be re-worked with a
jigsaw.
^
Connect the cooktop to the electrical
power supply.
^
Check that the cooktop is working
properly.
