4.4 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.
Screw the springs into the worktop as shown in the drawing. The hob is then pressed carefully from above into the
retaining springs.
When screwing the springs, always use the upper hole of the spring, unless the worktop is tiled. (Fig. 3)
In order to facilitate installation in worktops made of granite or similar material, we have included special
fastening springs, self-tapping screws and snap-on nuts (See [Fig. 2a, 3a] drawings). Insert front and rear
snap-on nuts into range. Do not overextend springs when bolting!
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. For the purposes of fire safety this appliance is a
Type Y appliance. This means that it can be installed with its rear side and one of the other sides in contact with
room or unit walls of any height. The other sides may only be in contact with furniture or other appliances with the
same height as the appliance.
