4.4 Installation
Before installing the hob, check that the all-round hob seal has no gaps.
If the hob is installed in a worktop with a ceramic or similar cover (tiles),
remove the hob seal and seal the hob from the worktop with a plastic
seal, such as heat-resistant silicone rubber.
Important! If the hob is installed above furniture parts (side
walls, drawers, etc.) it must be ensured that accidental contact
with the underside of the hob is prevented by means of a touch
guard. The touch guard may only be capable of removal with
suitable tools and must be attached to the underside of the cooking
surface at a minimum distance of 20 mm so that the mains
connection cable does not touch the underside of the cooking
surface (Fig. 4). The back wall of the cabinet must be open in order
to provide for air circulation. The front transverse strip of the
furniture must be removed so that an opening is provided for air
flow underneath the worktop over the entire width of the unit. The
distance between induction hob and kitchen furniture resp. built-in
unit must provide for sufficient ventilation of the induction. The
distance between induction hob and kitchen furniture resp. built-in
unit must ensure a sufficient ventilation of the induction. Thus a
back-flow of warmed air is prevented from entering the cool air
intake. Important! The screen shield must not cover the ventilation
openings. If necessary, shorten the shield up to the furniture or
built-in unit. Avoid excessive thermal development from below e.g.
from a baking oven without a cross flow cooling device.
No cross-bars may be in the area of the cut-out underneath.
Place the hob carefully into the cut-out and fasten it to the worktop with the
fasteners.
Screw the springs into the worktop as shown in the drawing. The hob is then
pressed carefully from above into the retaining springs.
When screwing the springs, always use the upper hole of the spring, unless
the worktop is tiled. (Fig. 3)
Make sure that the worktop and the hob are horizontal. In addition, make sure that no liquids can penetrate
between the edge of the hob and the worktop or between the hob and the wall and come into contact with any
electrical appliances. Use sealing sections, strips, agents, etc. For the purposes of fire safety this appliance is a
Type Y appliance. This means that it can be installed with its rear side and one of the other sides in contact with
room or unit walls of any height. The other sides may only be in contact with furniture or other appliances with the
same height as the appliance.
