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.
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 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 of worktops made of stone
– 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.
