Installation - Ceramic hobs
When installing a hob there may be a
wall at the back and a wall or tall unit at
one side. On the other side there must
not be a unit or wall which stands
higher than the hob.
Because of the heat given off, there
must be a minimum distance as fol-
lows:
– 50 mm between the worktop
cut-out and adjacent furniture,
e. g. tall unit.
– 50 mm between the back wall
and the worktop cut-out.
– Maintain the safety distance
between the hob and a cooker
hood above it as recommended
by the manufacturer. Where no
figures are given, e.g. for a pot or
utensil hanging rail, the safety
distance must be at least
760 m for inflammable objects.
