1 Safety Instructions for
the Installer
• A device must be provided in the electrical installa-
tion which 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 re-
moved from the holder), earth leakage trips and
contactors.
• In respect of fire protection, this appliance corre-
sponds to type Y (EN 60 335-2-6). Only this type of
appliance may be installed with a high cupboard or
wall on one side.
• Drawers may not be fitted underneath the hob.
• The installation must guarantee shock protection.
• The kitchen unit in which the appliance is fitted
must satisfy the stability requirements of
DIN 68930.
• For protection against moisture, all cut surfaces
are to be sealed with a suitable sealant.
• On tiled work surfaces, the joints in the area where
the hob sits must be completely filled with grout.
• On natural, artificial stone, or ceramic tops, the
snap action springs must be bonded in place with
a suitable artificial resin or mixed adhesive.
• Ensure that the seal is correctly seated against the
work surface without any gaps. Additional silicon
sealant must not be applied; this would make re-
moval more difficult when servicing.
• Avoid installing the appliance next to doors and
under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be
knocked off the rings when doors and windows are
opened.
• The hob must be pressed out from below when re-
moved.
