Precautions
Please comply scrupulously with the following points:
●
The walls above the worktop and immediately next to the hob must be heat-resistant.
●
Laminated surfaces and the adhesives used to fix them must be heat-resistant to avoid
any deterioration.
●
The cool air gap located underneath and to the rear of the hob is there to increase its
reliability by ensuring that it remains cool in all types of fitting arrangement.
●
The hob must not be installed above a dishwasher, washing machine, refrigerator or
freezer.
●
Protecting the cut-out:
The chipboard used in the manufacture of worktops swells relatively quickly when in
contact with humidity. Apply a varnish or a specialist glue to the edge of the cut-out to
protect it from any steam or condensation which may originate from under the worktop.
●
Make a cut-out in the worktop with the dimensions required. The minimum distance
of 40 mm should be measured from the wall and any side walls (rear and/or sides).
Protection from heating is Type Y in accordance with IEC 335-2-6
