Safety instructions for installation


Damage from falling objects.
Take care not to damage the hob when fitting wall units or a cooker hood above
it.
Fit the wall units and the cooker hood before the hob.

The room in which the hob is installed must conform to all relevant
local and national building regulations and safety regulations.

The veneer or laminate coatings of worktops (or adjacent kitchen
units) must be treated with 100 °C heat-resistant adhesive which will
not dissolve or distort. Any backmoulds must be of heat-resistant
material.

The hob must not be installed over a fridge, fridge-freezer, freezer,
dishwasher, washing machine, washer-dryer or tumble dryer.

A gas hob must not be installed directly next to a deep fat fryer as
the gas flames could ignite the fat in the fryer. It is essential to main-
tain a distance of at least 300 mm between these two appliances.

When installing the hob, make sure that the gas pipe and elec-
trical connection cable cannot come into contact with hot appliance
parts.

The electrical cable and any flexible gas connection pipes must be
installed in such a way so that they do not come into contact with
any moving kitchen parts (e.g. a drawer), and cannot become
trapped.

Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.
