Installing the hob
Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
Centre the hob in the cut-out.
Connect the hob to the mains.
Connect the hob to the gas supply
(see "Gas connection").
Check that the hob works (see "Func-
tional check").
Secure the hob (see "Securing the
hob").
Seal the remaining gap with a silic-
one sealant that is heat-resistant to at
least 160 °C.
Unsuitable sealant can damage nat-
ural stone.
For natural stone worktops and nat-
ural stone tiles, only use silicone
sealant that is specially formulated
for natural stone, and observe the
sealant manufacturer's instructions.
