Fitting by trained personnel
4.1 Worktop cut-out
Carry out all cutting out of furniture units and worktops before fitting the
appliance, and remove all sawdust and chips.
The dimensions of the worktop recess can be seen in the dimension
drawing (figs. 1+2).
The cut sections should be sealed with a water-repellent protection
paint.
The worktop and the hob must be fitted horizontally. A tilted hob is
under tension and this increases the danger of breaking.
4.2 Installation
Before installing the hob, check that the all-round hob seal has no gaps.
If the hob is installed in a worktop with a ceramic or similar cover (tiles), remove the hob seal and seal the hob
from the worktop with a plastic seal, such as heat-resistant silicone rubber.
Important! If the cooking surface is located above furniture parts (side panels, drawers, etc.), then an
intermediate bottom must be inserted in order to prevent accidental contact with the underside of the
cooking surface. The intermediate bottom may only be capable of removal by means of tools and must be
attached with a minimum distance of 20 mm to the underside of the cooking surface so that the mains
connection cable does not touch the underside of the cooking surface (fig. 4).
If the cooking surface is to be inserted over a built-in baking oven, then it must be equipped with a cooling
fan. An intermediate bottom is not necessary in this case.
No cross-bars may be in the area of the cut-out underneath.
Place the hob carefully into the cut-out and fasten it to the worktop with the fasteners (fig. 3). Tighten the screws
with a hand screw driver only; do not use a battery-operated screw driver.
Make sure that the worktop and the hob are horizontal. In addition, make sure that no liquids can penetrate
between the edge of the hob and the worktop or between the hob and the wall and come into contact with any
electrical appliances. Use sealing sections, strips, agents, etc.
