Using this appliance without an earthed connection or after it has been
incorrectly installated may, in very rare cases, cause serious harm.
The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any malfunction or damage
which is caused by incorrect electrical installation.
If the appliance is not fitted with an accessible plug, disconnecting means must
be incorporated in the fixed installation, in accordance with the installation
regulations.
The power cable must be positioned so that it does not touch any of the hot
parts of the hob.
Refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, or washing machines must not be installed
under the induction hob.
Any change to the appliance’s interior, including changing the power cable,
must be performed by the Customer Service.
Preparing the Kitchen
The worktop should be flat and horizontal. The aperture should be cut before
the appliance is installed. Remove any shavings, as these can affect the operation
of the electrical components. When the cutting has been completed, the unit’s
stability should be checked again.
Surfaces which have been cut should be sealed so that they are heat resistant
and so that they do not swell when moist.
The kitchen units to be fitted must resist temperatures of up to 90oC.
The gap between the aperture and the side wall must be at least: 40 mm
It is not recommended that the hob be placed between two side walls but, if
this is the case, a gap of at least 200 mm should also be left on one side.
If the induction hob is installed above a sterilizer there must be a gap of 70 mm
from the top of worktop to the top of the sterilizer.
If the induction hob is installed without sterilizer or above a drawer, the
worktop thick around the hob must be 20 mm as minimum.
