Hisense E6431C Instructions For Use Manual page 24

Installing the appliance
The appliance may only be installed into a temperature- and water-resistant countertop, such as a
countertop made of (natural) stone (marble, granite), or solid wood (the edges along the cut-out have
to be sealed). When installing into a countertop made of ceramics, wood, or glass, a wooden sub-frame
should be used. The frame is not supplied with the appliance. The appliance may only be installed
into a countertop made of other materials after you have consulted the countertop manufacturer and
obtained his express approval. Internal dimension of the basic unit should be at least equal to the
internal cutout for the appliance. This will allow simple removal of the appliance from the countertop.
Attach sealing tape along the perimeter of the bottom of the glass panel.
First, feed the power cord through the cutout. Place the appliance over the centre of the cutout.
Connect the appliance to the power mains (see instructions for connecting the appliance). Before
sealing the appliance, test its operation. Seal the slot between the appliance and the countertop using
a silicone sealant. The silicone sealant used to seal the appliance has to be temperature-resistant (to
at least 160 °C). Smooth out the silicone sealant using a suitable tool. Observe the instructions for
use of the selected silicone sealant. Do not switch on the appliance until the silicone sealant has dried
completely.
WARNING!
Pay particular attention to built-in dimensions with (natural) stone countertops. When choosing
the silicone sealant, observe the countertop material and consult the countertop manufacturer.
Use of inappropriate silicone sealants can result in permanent discolouration of some parts.
Removing the built-in appliance
Disconnect the appliance from the powermains. Use a suitable tool to remove the silicone gasket from
the perimeter. Remove the appliance by pushing it upwards from the bottom side.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to remove the appliance from the upper side of countertop.
WARNING!
The service department shall only be responsible for repair and servicing of the cooking hob.
Consult your specialized kitchen equipment dealer regarding the re-installation (of the flush-mount)
cooking hob.
