Surface-mounted installation
Create the worktop cut-out.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see “Safety
distances”).
Seal any cut surfaces on
wooden
worktops
with a special varnish,
silicone rubber or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture ingress. The sealant must
be heat-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
Stick the supplied sealing strip under
the edge of the hob. Do not apply the
sealing strip under tension.
Risk of damage from incorrect
connection.
The hob electronics may be
damaged if a short-circuit occurs.
The mains connection cable must be
connected to the hob by a qualified
electrician.
Connect the mains connection cable
by following the instructions in the
wiring diagram on the hob (see
“Electrical connection” – “Wiring
diagram”).
Feed the mains connection cable for
the hob down through the worktop
cut-out.
Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal of the appliance sits flush with
the worktop on all sides. This is
important to ensure an effective seal
all round.
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner
radius (≤ R4) can be carefully scribed
to suit.
Connect the hob to the mains (see
“Electrical connection”).
Check that the hob works.
