Installing in a fitted kitchen unit
The cooker must be installed absolutely
horizontally.
F
We recommend sealing the rear areas of the installation facing the wall
and adjacent high cupboards. This prevents cooking flames going out
under unusual ventilation conditions should drawers and/or cupboard
doors in adjacent furniture not be closed carefully.
Preparing the built-in cupboard
– In the upper area of the side wall of the cupboard cut out an opening
measuring 100 x 100 mm for the supply lines.
[
Note the niche dimensions! A
gap of at least 5 mm
must exist between
the inbuilt oven and the cooking hob to ensure adequate ventilation.
F
Important
: Remove the back wall of the cupboard and the crossbar
between the side walls, if applicable!
Cutting out the openings in the worktop
■
Important
: Do not mark out the opening in the worktop unless the worktop
is already properly fitted.
■
The working surface must be installed horizontally and the opening must be
cleanly cut.
■
No cross-bars may be in the area of the cut-out underneath. They have to
be reduced at least to the opening size of the worktop.
Completely remove
the front cross bar!
The appliance comes supplied with a template for marking out the opening in
the worktop.
Place the template against the
front edge of the
cabinet
.
Mark out the opening for the
cooker in the worktop and cut
out.
Seal the cut sections
– The cut sections should be sealed with a water-repellent protection paint.
Checking or replacing the sealing
– Make sure that the sealing of the hob is properly seated.
Use temperature-resistant permanently elastic sealant around the hob edges
on uneven surfaces (tiling, etc.).
– Do not apply this sealant under the hob on the work surface/s, as this/these
would then be damaged during any later removal.
Remove transport securing devices.
– The plastic clips used to secure the burner covers and burner tubes are to
be removed.
– The burner covers and intermediate rings are to be removed from all four
burners.
– The two front burners are screwed onto housing sheets to secure them in-
transit. Undo the screws.
Preparing the gas connection
Check that the details on the nameplate (see page 29) are the same as the
type of gas used in your area. If there are any discrepancies, the hob will have
to be converted for the corresponding type or quality of gas (see page 34).
Screw the gas safety hosing tight
to the oven connection using
two
open-jawed spanners
by
counter-tensioning.
[
Make sure nothing near the
piping is bent. If this
happens the knobs won’t fit
properly!
Sliding the appliance into
place
Insert the appliance a short way into a
cupboard alcove.
Pull the supply lines through the
opening in the side wall.
Now slide the oven all the way into its
space.
[
Do not bend, jam, tension or fold
the gas connection piping / hosing
when doing so!
Fastening in the appliance
– Open the oven door.
– Using the screws provided and
slanting them outwards, fasten
the appliance to the cabinet.
Readjusting the retractable knobs!
After the appliance has been connected and fitted the knobs must be checked
to see whether they work in different positions.
If, on account of connecting to the gas supply or fitting into the kitchen units,
the knobs no longer work perfectly, the following steps should be taken:
– remove both middle knobs;
– loosen the screws next to the valve shaft, which are visible through the knob
opening;
– using a screwdriver to raise or lower the valve shafts through the knob
opening, align the handle shaft with the centre of the hole and then
retighten the screws using a second screwdriver;
– replace the knobs and check again.
