(13 mm, to be provided on-site)
As the ceramic glass and the
worktop cut-out have a certain
dimensional tolerance, gap c (min.
1 mm) can vary.
^
Make the worktop cut-out as shown
in "Building-in dimensions".
Remember to maintain a minimum
safety distance (see "Safety
clearances").
^
Fix the wooden frame d 7 mm below
the top edge of the worktop (see
diagram).
Connecting the mains connection
cable to the appliance
The mains connection cable must
be connected by a suitably qualified
and competent electrician in
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations.
^
Connect the mains connection to the
appliance according to the
connection diagram (see "Electrical
connection").
Installing the cooktop
^ Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
^ Centre the cooktop b in the cut-out.
^ Connect the cooktop to the mains.
^ Check that the cooktop works.
^ Seal the remaining gap c with a
silicone sealant that is heat-resistant
to at least 160 °C.
Observe the silicone sealant
manufacturer's instructions.
For granite and marble tiled
worktops, only use silicone sealant
that has been specially formulated
for granite and marble.
