Installation
Make sure you take all the necessary precautions
to guarantee proper installation in compliance with
the applicable regulations.
All surfaces adjacent to the cabinet and the back
panel should be made of materials resistant to a
temperature of 65 °C.
1. Built-in hobs to be slotted in (see fig. 2,
detail H1). In this case it is necessary to
make a hole in the worktop whose
measurements match those of the hob.
The measurement at the side should be
reduced by 10 mm for horizontal sides
and 6 mm for vertical sides, in order to
ensure that 10 mm of the hob perimeter
overlaps with and rests on top of the
supporting surface for horizontal sides
(this figure should be 6 mm for vertical
sides, see fig. 4a-4b). To slot in the hob
flush with the worktop, the cut-out on this
supporting surface must be lowered, so
that both the edge of the hob and the seal
under it can be positioned there.
Before
fitting the hob to the worktop, position the
seal provided along the perimeter of the
hob, as illustrated in Fig. 5. Brackets for
fixing worktops to the cabinet have been
provided, and these should be fitted as
shown in detail S (Fig. 3).
2. Built-in hobs with edges lower than 88
mm (see figure 2, detail H2); to install this
type of hob, a hole large enough to
accommodate the whole lower casing of
the appliance must be made on the
worktop intended to be under the hob.
Remember to leave a gap of at least 1 cm
between the lower casing and the
worktop around the whole perimeter of
the appliance (the underside of the casing
can, however, touch the surface below it).
To fit the appliances, follow the
instructions given above in point 1 or use
any supplementary instruction leaflet that
is provided in special cases.
3. Sit-on hobs with edges higher than 88
mm (see figure 2, detail H3). In this case,
the lower casing of the hob does not
protrude further than the edge of the
appliance. Even when the hob is resting
on the worktop, it will suffice to leave
space for the gas supply tube and
electricity supply cable.
