Installation instructions
Please note
KÜPPERSBUSCH built-in hob units may be combined only with KÜPPERS-
BUSCH built-in ovens with tangencial cooling fan.
Exception: model series EGS. The use of any other make of hob unit shall ex-
empt Küppersbusch from all liability.
Failure to observe this requirement
will invalidate all granted certificates and labels of approval!
Hints on installation
■
It is absolutely essential that the worktop is aligned horizontally and that a
clean cut is made into it!
■
The front, rear and lateral clearances around the hob unit must be main-
tained 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).
■
Any cooker hoods or wall cupboards must have a vertical clearance of at
least 650 mm from the hob unit.
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).
Prior to installation and after removal for repair, examine the gasket for pos-
sible damage. The gasket must provide perfect contact on all four sides. Re-
place it if necessary.
In the case of ceramic-tiled worktops it is necessary to provide an additional
seal with the aid of a permanently elastic sealing compound. Such sealing
compound can be purchased as Küppersbusch spare part No. 53 55 69.
– Clean the surfaces to be sealed in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions on the cartridge. Apply the compound in a continuous strip,
pressing it firmly against the gap to be sealed.
– Cut away any surplus sealing compound with a sharp knife and clean the
sealed joint with water.
Installation of glass-ceramic hob units
Using clips makes it easier and quicker for you to install these units. You can
carry out the complete installation work from above.
■
Always lift the cooking surface by holding it at the sides. Do not lift it by
the front bar.
■
Be extremely careful when installing! 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.
– First of all make a clean cut into the worktop.
– Make sure that the gasket is properly seated. If the worktop surface is un-
even (tiles etc.), remove the gasket strip and seal with a heat resistant seal-
ing compound.
– Then insert the clips into the worktop cut-out as shown in the figures on
the previous page, observing the clearances indicated. It is not necessary
to adjust the height due to the horizontal stop motion device.
– Now position the cooking surface on the left as shown in figure, align it (2)
and clip it in (3).
If the worktop cut-out should be a little too
large, it is possible to increase the prelim-
inary spring tension of the clips by screw-
ing them down.
You only require the enclosed tension el-
ements S if you are fitting the hob unit into
worktops made of granite, marble or sim-
ilar materials.
Elektrischer Anschluß
■
The built-in cooking area must be connected to the mains supply by
a qualified electrician who is authorized to carry out such work.
■
Both legal wiring regulations and the requirements of your local electricity
supply board must be fully complied with.
■
Safeguard the appliance by means of line-protecting switches, fuses or con-
tactors with at least 3 mm contact opening width.
■
When connecting and repairing the appliance disconnect it from the elec-
tricity supply with one of these devices.
■
It must not be possible to touch nonconducting parts when the appliance is
installed.
■
The earthed conductor lead must be sufficiently long so that, in the event
of failure of the strain relief, it is not subjected to strain until after the live
wires of the connection cable.
■
Any superfluous cable must be removed from the installation area beneath
the appliance.
