Installation Instructions
Before the Ceramic Hob is installed, make sure that:
• The work surface is square and level, and no structural parts interfere with space
requirements.
• The work surface is made of a heat-resistant material.
• If the Ceramic Hob is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan.
• The installation will comply with all clearance requirements and applicable standards
and regulations.
• A suitable power switch providing full disconnection from the main power supply is
incorporated in the fi xed wiring, mounted and positioned to comply with the local
wiring rules and regulations.
The power switch must be an approved type and must provide a 3 mm air gap contact
separation in all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the local wiring rules allow
for this variation of the requirements).
• The power switch can be easily accessible before the Ceramic Hob is installed.
• Consult local building authorities and institutions if there are doubts regarding
installation.
• Use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean fi nishes (such as ceramic tiles) for the wall
surfaces surrounding the Ceramic Hob.
When installing the Ceramic Hob, make sure that:
• The power cord is not accessible through cupboard doors or drawers.
• There is adequate fl ow of fresh air from outside the cabinet to the base of the Ceramic
Hob.
• If the Ceramic Hob is installed above a drawer or cupboard space, a thermal
protection barrier is installed below the base of the Ceramic Hob.

Correct installation is the responsibility of the installer. Any malfunction or accident resulting
from the failure to follow the Installation Instructions is not covered by the warranty.
The Ceramic Hob must be installed by qualified personnel or technicians.
Never conduct the operation by yourself.
The Ceramic Hob must not be installed directly above a dishwasher, fridge,
freezer, washing machine or clothes dryer, as the humidity may damage the
Ceramic Hob electronics.
The Ceramic Hob shall be installed such that better heat radiation can be
ensured to enhance its reliability.
The wall and cooking zone above the work surface should be able to withstand
heat.
To avoid any damage, the sandwich layer and adhesive materials must be
resistant to heat.
