Important user information
The glass ceramic hob is intended to be fitted
in a kitchen worktop or the like. If you have
the requisite skills, you can fit the hob your-
self. However, the electrical connection must
be carried out by authorised specialist staff.
Requirements
To ensure proper operation, the following re-
quirements must be met:
– The hob complies with heat protection
class 'Y' (EC 335-2-6), which means that
with higher kitchen furnishings or walls it
may be installed on only one side. The
built-in furniture must have coverings and
the adhesives used must be heat-resistant
(100 °C). If this is not the case, this can
lead to deformation or detachment of the
covering surface. If you do not know the
thermal resistance of your kitchen furni-
ture, leave a gap of approximately 2 cm
between the furniture and the stove.
– The distance between the hob and the ex-
tractor hood must be at least 760 mm.
– Always install exhaust hoods in accord-
ance with their user manuals.
– Do not place the cooker directly next to a
refrigerator or freezer. This will increase its
energy consumption unnecessarily due to
heat emission.
– A gap of at least 50 mm must be left below
the entire recess for ventilation purposes.
No heat-sensitive objects (cabinet, draw-
ers, etc.) should be located in this area.
You may need to saw off or remove side
walls or drawers.
Preparing food
To ensure proper operation, the following re-
quirements must be met:
– The worktop must be at least 30 mm thick
and at least 590 mm deep, must be hori-
zontal and level, and must be sealed on the
wall side against overflowing liquids.
– The hob must be surrounded by at least
50 mm of worktop on all sides.

If the hob is separated from the rest of the
mounting cupboard using a horizontal fixing
plate, the space between the base of the ap-
pliance and the fixing plate must be at least
50 mm high.
– If the hob is separated from the rest of
the mounting cupboard by a vertical fixing
plate, the space between the wall and the
fixing plate must be at least 20 mm.
– At the back of the fixing plate, a square
opening with a side diameter of at least
80 mm must be cut out.
– If the hob is installed over an oven with
ventilation, the clearance between the
base of the appliance and the cover of the
oven must be at least 50 mm.
– At the front of the hob there must be an air
outlet at least 5 mm in size between the
hob and the oven or floor unit.
