Flush-fit installation
Create the worktop cut-out. Remem-
ber to maintain the minimum safety
distances (see "Safety distances").
Solid wood, tiled and glass worktops:
Fix a wooden frame 5,5 mm below
the top edge of the worktop (see
building-in diagram for "Flush-fit in-
stallation").
Stick the supplied sealing strip under
the edge of the hob.
Feed the mains connection cable for
the hob down through the worktop
cut-out.
Centre the hob in the cut-out.
The gap between the ceramic surface
and the worktop must be at least
2 mm wide. This is required so that
the hob can be sealed.
Connect the hob to the mains.
Check that the hob works.
Seal the gap between the hob and
worktop with a silicone sealant that is
heat-resistant to at least 160 °C.
Damage from unsuitable sealant.
Unsuitable sealant can damage nat-
ural stone.
For natural stone worktops and nat-
ural stone tiles, only use silicone
sealant that is specially formulated
for natural stone. Follow the manu-
facturer's instructions.
