FITTING REQUIREMENT - Worktop
Installation, important notes!
- Excessive heat development from be-
low, e.g. from a baking oven without
cross-flow fan, should be avoided.
- If pyrolysis operation takes place at
built-in cookers, the induction hob
must not be used.
- When installing above a drawer, care
must be taken to ensure that no
sharp objects are stored in the dra-
wer. These could tilt on the underside
of the hob and block the drawer.
- If there is an intermediate bottom be-
low the hob, sufficient ventilation of
the hob inductors must be ensured.
- The cooktop must not be installed
above refrigerators, dishwashers,
washing machines or dryers.
- It must be ensured that no flammable,
easily flammable or heat deformable
objects are placed directly next to or
below the hob due to the risk of fire.
Hob gasket
Wood worktops must be sealed on the
cut surfaces.
Before installation, the enclosed cooktop
gasket must be inserted without gaps.
- It must be prevented that liquids can
penetrate between the edge of the hob
and the worktop or between the worktop
and the wall into any electrical appli-
ances installed underneath.
- If the hob is installed in an uneven
worktop, e.g. with a ceramic or similar
covering (tiles, etc.), the cooking surface
must be sealed against the worktop with
plastic sealing materials (e.g. Novasil®
or Ottoseal® ).
Note:
- If sealing adhesive is used for sealing
and fixing, a later, non-destructive re-
moval of the hob cannot be guaranteed.
Worktop cut-out
The cut-out in the worktop should be
made as accurately as possible with a
good, straight saw blade or a router.
The cut surfaces should then be sealed
to prevent moisture from penetrating.
The cut-out for the hob is made accord-
ing to the illustrations. The glass-
ceramic hob surface must be flat and
flush. Tensioning can cause the glass
plate to break. Check the seal of the
cooking surface for a perfect fit and
complete support.
Exhaust air - outlet opening
The cross-section of the wall boxes and
the cut-out in the plinth panels should at
least correspond to the exhaust air ope-
ning. There must be one or more air
outlet openings of at least 500cm² in
total. Shorten the height of the skirting
boards or insert corresponding ope-
nings.
