Building into fitted kitchen units
This hob is designed for installation into fitted kitchen units up to 600mm deep on the assumption
that the clearances indicated below are observed. The worktop height should be between 40 and
50mm.
A. The height clearance to the underside of a chimney hood not less than 750mm (a).
B. Any combustible surface taller than the height of the hob itself must be at least 150mm
away from the opening into which the hob is inserted (b).
C. The clearance from the wall, minimum gap of 65mm (C).
Installation options
Option1:
When fitting a gas hob above a drawer or standard housing unit, suitable precautions must be
taken to prevent contact with the casing of the hob, which becomes very hot during operation.
The recommended method for overcoming this problem is to fix a wooden panel within the
cabinet at a distance of 15mm below the underside of the hob (see fig 1). This panel must have
adequate ventilation to the rear.
Fig 1
The panel underneath the hob must be easily removable to allow for any servicing requirements.
