WARNING
• Ensuring Adequate Ventilation
Make sure the hob is well ventilated and that air
inlet and outlet are not blocked. In order to avoid
accidentally touching the hot bottom of the hob,
or unexpected electric shock during operation, it
is necessary to fit a wooden insert, fixed by
screws, at a minimum distance of 50 mm from
the bottom of the hob. Follow the requirements
below.
• There are ventilation holes around outside of the
hob. YOU MUST ensure these holes are not
blocked by the worktop when you put the hob
into position.
• The glue, which join the plastic or wooden
material to the furniture has to resist to 150 ℃ to
avoid the unstuck of the paneling.
• The rear wall, adjacent and surrounding surfaces
must therefore be able to withstand a
temperature of 90 ℃.
Installing the Appliance
Before Installing the Hob
• Make sure that the work surface is square and
level, and no structural members interfere with
space requirements.
• Make sure that the work surface is made of a
heat-resistant and insulated material.
• If the hob is installed above an oven, the oven
must have a built-in cooling fan.
• The installation must comply with all clearance
requirements and applicable standards and
regulations.
• Make sure that a suitable isolating switch
providing full disconnection from the mains
power supply is incorporated in the permanent
INSTALLATION
wiring, mounted and positioned to comply with
local wiring rules and regulations.
• A device must be provided in the electrical
installation that allows the appliance to be
disconnected from the mains at all poles with a
contact opening width of at least 3 mm. Suitable
isolation devices include line protecting cut -
outs, fuses (screw type fuses are to be removed
from the holder), earth leakage trips and
contactors.
• The isolating switch must be easily accessible to
the customer with the hob installed.
• Consult local building authorities and by-laws if
in doubt regarding installation.
• Use heat-resistant and easy-to-clean finishes
(such as ceramic tiles) for the wall surfaces
surrounding the hob.
• The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted
must satisfy the stability requirements of DIN
68930.
After Installing the Hob
• Maker sure that the power cord is not accessible
through cupboard doors or drawers.
• Make sure that there is adequate flow of fresh air
from outside the cabinetry to the base of the
hob.
• If the hob is installed above a drawer or
cupboard space, a thermal protection barrier
must be installed below the base of the hob.
• The isolating switch must be easily accessible by
the customer.
Before Locating the Fixing Brackets
• The appliance should be placed on a stable,
smooth surface. Do not apply force onto the
buttons protruding from the hob.
Adjusting the Bracket Position
Fix the hob on the work surface by screwing four
brackets on the bottom of hob after installation.
