POSITIONING OF THE HOB
The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work so must
be carried out by a competent tradesman.
Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry,
metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood, as long as they are heat-
resistant (T 90°C).
2.1
Attachment to support structure, traditional built-in
model (fig. 1)
Create an opening with the
dimensions shown in the
figure in the work surface,
observing a minimum distance
of 50 mm from the rear edge.
This appliance can be installed
next to walls that are higher
than the work surface, as long
as the distance "X" is kept
between the appliance and
the wall, as shown in the
1)
figure, to avoid damage from overheating. Make sure there is a minimum of
750 mm between the gas rings and any shelf that may be installed directly
above them.
Carefully position the gasket provided all around the outer edge of the hole
in the work surface as shown in figure 2, pressing it down lightly to ensure
it adheres properly. The front and rear sides of the gasket must skim the
hole. Having done this, place the hob on top of the gasket and using the
screws and fixing brackets “C” or “D” (depending on the depth of the
worktop – Fig.4) secure the hob to the support structure, ensuring it is
level. The brackets “C” secure the hob to a structure having a depth of 20
to 30 mm. The brackets “D” on the other hand, are for use with worktops
having a depth of 30 to 50 mm.
Carefully trim any excess from edge C (Fig.3) of the gasket. The distances
in figure 2 refer to the hole on the inner side of the gasket.
