4.4 Installation
Before installing the hob, check that the wraparound 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 hob is installed above furniture parts (side
walls, drawers, etc.) it must be ensured that accidental contact
with the underside of the hob is prevented by means of a touch
guard. The touch guard may only be capable of removal with
suitable tools and must be attached to the underside of the
cooking surface at a minimum distance of 20 mm so that the
mains connection cable does not touch the underside of the
cooking surface (Fig. 4). The back wall of the cabinet must be
open in order to provide for air circulation. Sufficient air supply
should be provided through the furniture pedestal. The front
transverse strip of the furniture must be removed so that an
opening is provided for air flow underneath the worktop over
the entire width of the unit. The distance between induction hob
and kitchen furniture resp. built-in unit must provide for
sufficient ventilation of the induction. Thus a back-flow of
warmed air is prevented from entering the cool air intake.
Important! The screen shield must not cover the ventilation
openings. If necessary, shorten the shield up to the furniture or
built-in unit. Avoid excessive thermal development from below
e.g. from a baking oven without a cross flow cooling device.
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 drawings [Fig. 2a, 3a]).
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.
