Installing the hob flush with the
worktop
Create the worktop cut-out.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see "Installation –
Safety distances").
Solid wood, tiled and glass worktops:
Fix a wooden frame 5,5 mm or 7 mm
(KM 7404 FX, KM 7414 FX,
KM 7414 FX Glas) below the top
edge of the worktop.
Risk of damage from incorrect
connection.
The hob electronic module may be
damaged if a short circuit occurs.
The mains connection cable must be
connected to the hob by a qualified
electrician.
Connect the mains connection cable
to the hob by following the
instructions in the wiring diagram (see
"Installation – Electrical connection").
For all hobs, apart from the following
models: KM 7404 FX, KM 7414 FX,
KM 7414 FX Glas, attach the sealing
strip provided underneath the edge of
the hob. Do not apply the sealing
strip under tension.
Feed the mains connection cable for
the hob down through the worktop
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.
Centre the hob in the cut-out.
If an air intake-optimised base panel
is installed, position the hob so that
the fans are located above the cut-
outs.
Connect the hob to the electricity
supply (see "Installation – Electrical
connection").
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.
