Safety Requirements
Ensure that the surrounding material is heat resistant and non-combustible.
The electricity supply must be routed near to the installation (see page 6).
There must not be any plugs, wires or sockets in the wall directly above or behind the hob.
Housing dimensions
Before starting the installation process, it is important to check that the appliances will fit into the units they
will be housed in. These dimensions apply equally to combined or separate installations.
Hob
The hob must be installed into a work surface, fitted with an opening cut into the surface so that the top
plate sits flush with the surface. It can be fitted above the oven, or separately, but in either case It is best
positioned directly above a 600mm wide fitted kitchen cabinet (Figure 4).
Oven
The oven can be installed into a housing unit of the correct dimensions, either below a worktop, or into a
separate floor standing unit. (Figure 5).
