To ensure sufficient ventilation to the
hob, a minimum gap must be left
between the underside of the hob and
any oven, interim shelf or drawer.

Interim shelf
It is not necessary to fit an interim shelf
underneath the hob, but one may be
fitted if you wish.
A ventilation gap of 10 mm at the back
of the hob is necessary to
accommodate the cabling.
We recommend a ventilation gap at the
front of the hob of 20 mm to ensure
good ventilation.
