Sealant
The sealing strip under the edge of the
top part of the hob provides a sufficient
seal for the worktop.
The appliance must not be sealed
with sealant (e.g. silicone). This
could result in damage to the
appliance or the worktop if it ever
needs to be removed for servicing.
Tiled worktop
Grout lines a and the hatched area
underneath the surface of the
appliance must be smooth and even. If
they are not, the hob will not sit flush
with the worktop and the sealing strip
underneath the top part of the hob will
not provide a good seal between the
hob and the worktop.
