Be sure to install an appropriate conduit box (not furnished) to connect the
cook top. Only a professional electrician or certified technician should install
a conduit-box or replace the connection cable.
■
Don’t shorten the conduit to facilitate service! The conduit should be routed
to permit the removal of the cook top.
■
The conduit-box must be protected by a circuit breaker or fuse, having
amperage as noted in this chapter.
■
The conduit-box can be mounted under the countertop below the cooking
surface or in a side cupboard in the wall. Do not mount it above the cooking
surface!

Installation
F
When installing in stone countertops, the grilling surface can't be
fastened with clips. See “Special case: Installation in a stone countertop”
on page 6.
Cutting the opening space
– First, neatly cut out the countertop opening.
Be sure to use the proper distances between the opening to the wall for
the front, back and side!
Drive in the clips
– Align the clips carefully and use a
hammer to drive them in.
Countertops with more than
30 mm (1-1/8") thickness:
With countertops with 30 mm
(1-1/8") thickness, use two
screws to secure the clips.
(Screws not included).
Connecting the connecting cable to the conduit-box
– Connect the grilling surface to the conduit-box.
■
Pull the excess cable out of the installation area.
Checking or replacing the sealing
– Make sure the seal fits well and has no gaps.
With uneven worktops
(tile, etc.) be sure to remove the sealing strip and
apply a temperature resistant and elastic sealant. Such sealing compound can
be purchased as KÜPPERSBUSCH spare part No. 535569.
– Clean the surfaces according to the instructions on the cartridge, apply the
sealant, and press the appliance into the opening.
– Cut away all excess sealant and then clean the sealed surface immediately
with water.
Inserting the grilling surface
– Position the grilling surface on the left
side (1), align it (2) and insert the clips
(3).
Be careful not to pinch the connecting
cable!
[
The grilling surface must rest evenly
in the opening. If the strain of the
grilling surface is too strong, the
appliance can crack while heating up.
F
If the grilling surface is not fixed tightly in the
opening, it is too big. In this situation, screw
the clips down with two screws each (not
supplied) to raise the spring tension.
