Fitting the Hob
Unpacking the hob:
Take care not to lose or mishandle any parts.
Fitting position of the hob:
This appliance must be installed a minimum of 50mm from any
back wall and a minimum of 180mm away from any adjacent vertical
surfaces, e.g. a tall cupboard end panel. This may be reduced to
100mm if the adjacent surface is resistant to fire (tiles or steel, for
example). These dimensions are shown in Fig. 5.
Ventilation requirements:
This appliance must be installed to allow air to ow freely to the air
intake, from the air outlet and in the base and run of units into which it
is installed (Fig 3). An air gap of 20mm is recommended immediately
below the hob.
Failure to allow sucient ventilation could cause damage to the hob
and constitutes incorrect installation, which is not covered by the
warranty.
Notes:
• This could be a simple slot cut out of the plinth, or a dedicated
ventilation grille.
• The furniture top rail should not be fitted to the unit. This allows the
induction hob to exhaust air into the kitchen space.
• The recommended ventilation sizes are for guidance only.
