Installation
Insertion and fixing
Warning: This appliance must not be fitted above a
dishwasher. If fitting above an underbench oven, check with
the oven manufacturer’s recommendations re installation of
hobs above the oven.
Pass the power supply cable through the back of the unit, taking
care that it does not touch the bottom casing of the appliance or
the oven, if one is installed underneath it.
IMPORTANT: when installing the
appliance above a cupboard, a
dividing shelf, as shown right,
must be installed to prevent
accidental contact with the hot
base panel.
Before inserting the hob in the
installation opening, place the
gasket provided around the
bottom edge of the hob. It is
important to fix this gasket evenly,
without gaps or overlapping, to
prevent liquid from seeping
underneath the hob.
Place the hob in the installation
opening and push it down so that
the hob is resting firmly on the benchtop. Fit the supplied brackets
and screws as shown in the illustration below. Tighten the screws to
secure the hob to the benchtop.
