If the base of the hotplate can be touched, a protecting

shield must be fitted. This shield must be at least 10 mm

from the lowest part of the hotplate and must be capable

of withstanding the appliance temperatures. Minimum

thickness of benchtop is 30 mm. See Fig. 2.

If an oven is positioned below the cooktop the barrier

does not need to be fitted, but a space of 35 mm must

be maintained between the underside of the cooktop and

the top of the oven.

Installation of cooktop

into the kitchen bench

Installation procedure:
Side clearances: If the distance measured from the

periphery of the nearest burner to any vertical surface is

less than 200 mm, the surface shall be protected in

accordance with clauses 6.10.1.2 of AS/NZS 5601.1

1. For cutout dimensions and clearances refer Fig.1.

2. The clips and the adhesive seal (underside of the

cooktop) are already fitted (depending on the model), do

not under any circumstances remove them. The seal

ensures that the entire work surface will be watertight,

and prevents water seepage. In order to fit the appliance

into the kitchen unit, first place the cooktop in the correct

position then loosen each of the clips so that they all turn

freely (it is not necessary to completely undo them).
Insert and centre the cooktop.

Press the sides of the cooktop until it is supported around

its entire perimeter.
Turn the clips and tighten them fully. Fig. 3.
