Cooktops with frame or bevelled edge

Installation

Preparing the worktop
 Create the worktop cut-out as shown
in the cooktop diagram. Remember
to maintain the minimum safety
distances (see "Safety distances").
Wooden worktops
 Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture. The
sealant must be temperature-
resistant.
Make sure the sealant does not
come into contact with the top
surface of the worktop.
The sealing strip ensures that the
cooktop will sit securely in the cut-out
without slipping. Any gap between the
trim and worktop will become smaller
over time.
Securing the spring clamps/support
brackets
The exact positioning of the spring
clamps and the support brackets (only
for cooktop with bevelled edges) is
shown in the individual cooktop
diagrams.
