Safety Instructions for the Installer
• A device must be provided in the electrical installation which
allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at all
poles with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm Suitable
isolation devices include line protecting cut-outs, fuses (screw
type fuses are to be removed from the holder), earth leakage trips
and contactors.
• In respect of fire protection, this appliance corresponds to type
Y (EN 60335-2-6). Only this type of appliance may be installed
with a high cupboard or wall on one side.
• Drawers may not be fitted underneath the HOB.
• The installation must guarantee shock protection.
• The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted must satisfy the
stability requirements of DIN 68930.
• For protection against moisture, all cut surfaces are to be sealed
with a suitable sealant.
• On tiled work surfaces, the joints in the area where the HOB sits
must be completely filled with grout.
• On natural, artificial stone, or ceramic tops, the snap action
springs must be bonded in place with a suitable artificial resin or
mixed adhesive.
• Ensure that the seal is correctly seated against the work surface
without any gaps. Additional silicon sealant must not be applied;
this would make removal more difficult when servicing.
• The HOB must be pressed out from below when removed.
• Clean the work surface in the area of the cut-out.
• Sealing tape is mounted on the ceramic Glass initially.
