Technical information for the fitter
Read this chapter carefully, as it contains vital information for a safe and secure installation.
Recommendations
· The appliance must be installed by a qualified technician in compliance with the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
The latter denies all responsibility for improper installation which may harm persons and animals
and damage property.
· When you have removed the packing, check whether the appliance is intact.
Never leave the packing components (plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within the reach of
children since these are a source of potential danger.
Built-in installation
This hob can be built into a worktop simply by cutting out the corresponding slot. All support types
are suitable: only some plastic materials are unadvised, as heat of up to approximately 100°C could
cause their deformation. Make sure you leave 4 cm of room between the rear cut-out of the hob and
the back of the worktop, to avoid burning the wall or the backsplash, especially if the latter is laminated.
If the hob is fitted above an oven, in order to avoid any overheating on the part of the hob's electric
components, it is vital that you leave a space 560mm wide and 8mm high between the top edge
of the oven and the bottom of the worktop.
Avoid fitting a dishwasher underneath the hob. If this is unavoidable, place a watertight separating
element between the two appliances.
