Safety instructions for

installation

Fit wall units and extractor hood
before fitting the hob to avoid
damaging the surface.
~
The veneer or laminate coatings of
worktops (or adjacent kitchen units)
must be treated with 100 °C
heat-resistant adhesive which will not
dissolve or distort.
Any backmoulds must be of
heat-resistant material.
~
This equipment may only be used in
mobile installations such as ships,
caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment has been carried out by a
suitably qualified engineer.
~
The hob may not be built in over a
fridge, fridge freezer, freezer,
dishwasher, washing machine or
tumble dryer.
~
These hobs must not be installed
above ovens or cookers unless these
have a built-in cooling down fan.
~
After installing the hob, ensure that
the connection cable cannot come into
contact with the underside of the
appliance. Make sure that there is no
mechanical obstruction, such as a
drawer, which could damage it.
~
If a protective shelf is installed under
the built-in hob, there must be a
minimum distance of 190 mm between
it and the top of the worktop to allow for
ventilation to the appliance. A gap of 10
mm is required at the back for feeding
the electrical cable through.
~
Observe carefully the safety
distances given on the following pages.
~
Do not use any sealant except
where expressly instructed to do so.
The seal underneath the appliance
provides a sufficient seal for the
worktop (see "Sealant").
All dimensions in this instruction booklet
are given in mm.
