Checking the Parts

Check that the appliance is in a good condition after having
removed the packaging. In case of doubt, do not use the
appliance and contact the retailer.

The hob also has 3 pan supports.

Never leave the packaging materials (cardboard, plastic
bags, polystyrene foam, etc.) within children’s reach since
they could become potential sources of danger.

Positioning the Hob

The hob should be fitted into a work surface, which is at least
600mm deep. In position, the hob has a maximum thickness
of 50mm from the top of the work surface, and an overall
thickness of 100mm (120mm max depth including the gas
connector). The cut-out dimensions are shown in (Fig.5-1),
and the minimum clearances in (Fig.5-2).

It is recommended that the hob be installed in a worktop
with a minimum thickness of 40mm.

Note: If installing the hob over a standard cabinet, you may
have to remove part of the cabinet panels to allow the unit to
fit correctly (see Fig.5-1).

It is recommended that there is a minimum air gap of 100cm²
underneath the hob to allow sufficient air circulation to the unit.

If installing a built-in oven directly under the hob then there
should be a minimum air gap of 20mm between the oven and
the bottom of the hob. Failure to maintain a suitable clearance
may impair the performance of the hob.

Any hob hood should be installed in accordance with the
hood manufacturer’s instructions.

Surfaces of furniture and walls at the sides and rear of the hob
should be heat, splash and steam resistant. Certain types of
vinyl or laminate kitchen furniture are particularly prone to
heat damage and discolouration.

We cannot accept responsibility for damage caused by
normal use of the hob to any material that de-laminates
or discolours at temperatures less than 65°C above room
temperature.
