Important notes

Safety in use is only guaranteed if the
J
technical installation of the hob has been
carried out correctly and in accordance
with the installation instructions. The
installation technician shall be liable for
any damage caused as a result of
incorrect installation.
Only an authorised technician is able
J
to connect the appliance. The guidelines
set out by the local electricity provider
must be observed.
This is a class I appliance and should
J
only be used with an earthed connection.
Using this appliance without an earth
J
connection or after it has been incorrectly
installed may, in very rare cases, cause
serious harm.
The manufacturer accepts no
responsibility for any malfunction or
damage which is caused by incorrect
electrical installation.
The fuse on devices B or C is
J
essential.
If the appliance is not fitted with an
J
accessible plug, disconnecting means
must be incorporated in the fixed
installation, in accordance with the
installation regulations.
The inlet hose must be positioned so
J
that it does not touch any of the hot parts
of the hob or oven.
Induction hobs should only be installed
J
on forced ventilation ovens of the same
specification. Refrigerators, dishwashers,
unventilated ovens or washing machines
must not be installed under the hob.
If the hob is installed above a drawer, it
J
is recommended to use an intermediate
support, as metal objects stored in the
drawer could reach high temperatures as
a result of the circulating air coming from
the hob's ventilation system.
A strip of wood can be used as an
intermediate support or an appropriate
accessory can be obtained from our
After-Sales Service.
The reference code for this accessory is
680502.
Any change to the appliance's interior,
J
including changing the power cable, must
be performed by the Technical
Assistance Service.
Preparing the kitchen
units - Figure 1/2/3/4
J The worktop should be flat and
horizontal. The aperture should be cut
before the appliance is installed.
Remove any shavings, as these can
affect the operation of the electrical
components. When the cutting has
been completed, the unit's stability
should be checked again.
Use only special, heat- and
J
water-resistant work surfaces (e.g. made
from natural stone or an integrated
chopping board).
The kitchen units to be fitted must
J
resist temperatures of up to 90ºC.
The gap between the aperture and the
J
side wall must be at least: 40 mm.
It is not recommended that the hob
be placed between two side
walls but, if this is the case, a gap of at
least 200 mm should also be left on one
side.
The worktop where the hob is installed
J
should be at least
30 mm thick.
If the interior width of the kitchen unit is
J
less than 750 mm, a 40 mm-long cut
must be made in the side walls from the
top section of the hob (figure 1).
Taking into account the hob
J
ventilation:
- an aperture must be cut in the top
section of the back of the kitchen unit,
550 mm wide and 45 mm high (figure 2).
- there must be a gap of 20 mm between
the back of the kitchen unit and the
kitchen wall (figure 4).
- if the hob is installed above a drawer,
allow a gap of 70 mm between the
drawer and the top section of the hob.
If a wooden panel is installed as an
J
intermediate support, this should be 5
mm thick. The following requirements
must also be taken into account:
- allow a gap of 70 mm between the
wooden panel and the top section of the
hob.
- the aperture cut in the back of the panel
(figure 2) must be sufficiently deep to
enable the hob cable to be fed through it
(figure 3).
The wooden panel must be as airtight as
possible, to separate the drawer from the
area in which the hob air is circulated. To
ensure this is the case, the dimensions of
the panel must be adjusted to fit the
measurements of the kitchen unit
housing in which the hob will be installed.
Preparing the unit

On tiled worktops:
If necessary, raise the height of the
surfaces by fitting heat and
water resistant strips all the way round.
Installing the gasket

Attach the adhesive seal so that it is
centred along the worktop ledge (see
diagram).
Levelling the hob
- Figure 7/8
If the hob is not level, install the anchoring
devices supplied.
Installing and
connecting the hob
Figure 9
See the rating plate for the voltage.
J
Connect according to the connection
J
diagram only.
The earth wire (green and yellow)
J
should be connected first and
disconnected last. It should also be
longer than the others, so that even if the
hob is moving the other wires can be
disconnected before the earth wire.
Ensure that the mains connection
J
cable does not get caught and keep it
away from sharp edges while fitting the
hob.
If an oven is fitted below the hob, feed
J
the mains connection cable from the rear
left-hand corner to the supply socket.
Place the hob horizontally into the cut out
and align it, ensuring that the join is even
on all sides.
1. Check the function and location of the
appliances.
2. Fill in the gap between the worktop
and the ceramic hob using a suitable
commercial silicone bonding agent in
a colour of your choice.
Caution. Use of unsuitable silicone
bonding agents on natural stone
worktops can cause permanent
discoloration. Suitable bonding agents
can be obtained from our after sales
service.
Please observe the manufacturer's
instructions for use. Apply the silicone
bonding agent in the joints.
Before the silicone bonding agent
starts to form a skin, moisten a blade
or your finger with a soapy solution
and smooth it over.
Important information on
removing the hob:
Disconnect the cooker from the power
supply.
Use a suitable tool to cut away the seal
from all sides of the ceramic top.
Push out the hob from below.
