Please note
KÜPPERSBUSCH built-in ovens may be combined only with KÜPPERSBUSCH

Hints on installation
■
Make sure that the worktop is perfectly horizontal.
■
The front, rear and lateral clearances around the hob unit must be maintai-
ned 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 ad-
jacent 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 installed appliance must be protected by a panel which
prevents inadvertent contact 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. This
seal can be obtained from our customer service under the spare part
No. 53 80 17.
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 without an ad-
justable slipping clutch! Any overtightening must be avoided!
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.
Insert the hob
– Carefully position the hob in the recess and firmly fasten to the worktop with
the appropriate attachment elements.
– After attachment check the seal with the worktop.
Attachment EKR of worktops made of wood
– In the case of worktops made of wood, screw the attachment springs into
the recess as shown in the illustration and then press the hob evenly into
these springs from above.
Attachment EKR of worktops made of stone and attachement EM
– Insert the angle nuts and introduce the glass ceramic hob from above. Then
fasten the hob with screws and attachment brackets from below (see illu-
strations).
– Align the glass ceramic hob horizontally. There is a risk of breakage if
the hob is canted or subjected to stress during installation!
Attachment of worktops with an uneven surface
– When installing a hob into an uneven worktop, e.g. with a ceramic or similar
covering (tiles etc.), the seal on the hob is to be removed and the seal bet-
ween the hob and worktop made with plastic sealing materials, such as
heat-resistant silicone rubber (not included in scope of delivery).
– Clean the surfaces to be sealed in accordance with the manufacturer's in-
structions on the cartridge. Apply the compound in a continuous strip, pres-
sing it firmly against the gap to be sealed.
