Notes for fitting
■
Make sure that the worktop is perfectly horizontal.
■
The front, rear and lateral clea-
rances around the hob unit must
be maintained in accordance with
the dimensional drawing.
A corner moulding of solid wood
may be fitted to the worktop at
the back of the hob unit provided
that the minimum clearances are
maintained.
For practical reasons the lateral
clearance between the hob unit
and an adjacent tall cupboard unit
must measure at least 300 mm.
■
Make sure that there is sufficient clearance underneath the cut-out. Any fur-
niture battens must be cut away to leave an area which is at least the same
size as the cut-out itself.
■
Make a point of ensuring that the plastic laminate or wood veneer on your
furniture surround has been applied by means of a heat-resistant adhesive
(100 °C).
■
The underside of the in-
stalled appliance must be
protected by a panel which
prevents inadvertent con-
tact with the live parts or
connecting leads between
the control unit and the
hob unit.
It must not be possible to
remove the panel without
tools.
■
Any cooker hoods or wall
cupboards must have a
vertical clearance of at least 650 mm from the hob unit.
■
Miniumum distance from the hob edge to the adjacent wall: 40 mm.
It will be expedient to seal built-in sinks and other built-in appliances in the
worktop in the same way (protection against ingress of water).
We recommend you to seal the cut surface of the worktop recesses for fitted
sinks and hobs with a protective water-proof paint.
The assembly seal is to be renewed after every dismantling operation. You can
obtain this sealing from our Customer service.
Installation
■
Be extremely careful when installingl Do not place or drop any sharp or
pointed tools (screwdrivers etc.) on the glass surface!
■
The glass-ceramic cooking area must have a level and flush bearing. Any
distortion may lead to fracture of the glass panel.
■
Never use any electrically operated or air operated wrenches and avoid any
overtightening!
Making the worktop recess
– Make the worktop recess accurately with a good, straight saw blade or re-
cessing machine in accordance with the dimensions in the illustrations. The
cut edges should then be sealed so that no moisture can penetrate.
