COOKER HOB INSTALLATION
Important warnings
• Installation of the appliance and connection to the mains electricity must be carried out by
qualified personnel only.
• The lining of the worktop walls must be suitably treated with adhesives capable of withstanding
temperatures of 100°C (if not, the colour and shape of the lining may alter).
• The appliance must be fitted into the worktop on a cabinet at least 600 mm wide.
• After installing the hob, the two support elements secured on the built-in appliance must be freely
accessible from underneath.
• All kitchen wall cabinets must be positioned so as to not hamper the user when operating the hob.
• The distance between the hob and cooker hood must comply with that indicated in the cooker
hood installation instructions. The minimum distance must be 700 mm.
• Solid wood frames can be placed on the worktop provided they are positioned at a suitable
distance (see picture).
• The minimum distance between the panel comprising the cooker hob and the rear wall is indicated
in the picture.
▪
The cooker hob may only be installed in a worktop 25 mm to 40
mm thick.
▪ The underlying kitchen cabinet must not have a drawer. It must
be fitted with a horizontal bar placed 20 mm under the lower edge
of the worktop. The space between the bar and cooker hob must
remain empty.
▪ A slit at least 50 mm high must be cut into the rear end of the
cabinet along its entire width.
▪ An oven can be installed beneath the cooker hob provided it is
equipped with a cooling fan.
Prior to installing the oven, the cabinet rear panel adjacent to the
oven's ventilation opening must be removed.
Likewise, the front end must have an opening at least 5 mm high.
