These instructions are intended for the qualified technician
installing the appliance in order to insure that the
installation, adjustments and maintenance procedures are
performed correctly and comply with the regulations
currently in effect.
Important: the cooktop must be disconnected from
the power supply before making any adjustments or
performing any maintenance, etc.
Installing built-in cooktops
The cooktops have a type X protection rating against
overheating in compliance with regulation CEI 335-2-6.
Therefore, the cooktops cannot be installed alongside of
cabinets which are higher than the surface of the cooktop
itself. The following precautionary measures should be
observed in order to ensure proper installation:
a) Hoods must be installed in compliance with the required
specifications contained in the instruction manual for
the hood itself.
b) The built-in ceramic glass top can be installed on any
counter top as long as it is 600 mm or more in width
and resistant to temperatures of up to 100°C.
The dimensions and the position of the hole are shown
in fig..
Y (CEI 335-2-6)
The aforementioned measurements must absolutely
be observed in so far as improper installation can cau-
se the surrounding surface areas to overheat.
It is recommended that the cooktop be installed at a
distance of at least 40 mm from the back wall or other
vertical surfaces to ensure that the air circulates
properly over the cooking area and to avoid overheating
the surrounding surfaces. A seal or gasket is provided
with the cooktop; make sure that it adheres properly to
the bottom par t of the frame of the cooktop.
It is indispensable that the seal fits properly around
the entire cooktop frame and especially along the
corners in order to create a seal between the counter
top and the cooktop itself so as to prevent spills or
splashes from leaking into the cabinet below.
Very important
It is essential to instali the hob on a totally flat surtace. Any
damage caused by incorrect fitting may alter the
characteristics or impair performance.
Insert the cooktop into the hole, pressing firmly around
the frame to make it adhere to the counter top.
Make certain that the seal around the outside edge of
the hob is correctly installed in order to avoid any
leakage into the cabinetry below.
Installation
c) If a wooden panel is installed beneath the cooktop for
insulation purposes, it must be positioned at least 10
mm from the bottom part of the cooktop itself.
Note: If the cooktop is installed above a built-in oven, it is
preferable that the oven be installed in such a way that it
