Before installing the hob
-
Make sure the worktop in which you install the hob is levelled, complies with the space
requirements and is made of a heat-resistant and insulated material.
-
If you install the cooking hob over an oven, the latter must have a cooling fan.
-
The installation must comply with all the safety requirements and the applicable rules and
regulations.
-
The main wiring is fitted with a suitable isolating switch that allows complete disconnection
from the mains, which has been installed and positioned in accordance with local wiring
rules and regulations.
-
The isolating switch must be of an approved model and provide 3 mm contact separation
on all poles (or on all active [phase] conductors if local wiring regulations allow this
variation of requirements).
-
If in doubt about the installation, seek advice from local building authorities and regulations.
-
Use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean finishes (such as ceramic tiles) on the walls
surrounding the hob.
After installing the hob
-
The power cord should not be accessible through the cabinet doors or drawers.

Make sure that there is an adequate flow of fresh air from the exterior of the cabinet to
the hob base.
-
If the hob is installed above drawers or cabinets, you must install a thermal protection
barrier under the hob base.
-
The user must be able to access the isolating switch easily.
Fixing brackets

You must place the hob on a stable and smooth surface (you can use the packaging). Do
not apply force to the buttons protruding from the hob.
-
Screw the four brackets to the bottom of the hob, then install the latter in the worktop
recess (as shown in Figure 7).
