Flush-fit installation
Flush-fit installation is only possible in
natural stone (granite, marble), solid
wood and tiled worktops. Certain
models are suitable for building into
glass worktops - please see advice
under “Building-in dimensions”. When
using a worktop made from any other
material, please check first with the
worktop manufacturer that it is
suitable for installing a flush-fit
cooktop.
The internal width of the base unit
underneath the appliance must be at
least as wide as the internal cut-out
width of the worktop (see “Building-in
dimensions”). This is to ensure that
the cooktop is easily accessible from
underneath after installation and the
bottom half of the casing can be
removed for maintenance. If the
underside of the cooktop is not freely
accessible after installation, any
sealant used to plug the gaps around
the appliance must be removed to
enable the cooktop to be lifted out of
the cut-out should this be necessary.
The cooktop can be installed
– directly in a suitable cut-out in a
natural stone worktop,
– in a suitable cut-out in a solid wood,
tiled or glass worktop with a wooden
support frame. The frame must be
provided on site, and is not supplied
with the appliance.
Minimum plinth height
The minimum plinth height is 100mm
(recirculation mode only).
Housing unit back panel
The extraction ducting is laid behind the
housing unit back panel. The back
panel must be removable for
maintenance purposes.
Grease trap
The cooktop must be installed such
that the grease trap is easily accessible
as it needs to be removed for cleaning.
