1 Safety Instructions for the Installer
• A device must be provided in the electrical installation 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 removed from the holder), earth leakage trips and
contactors.
• In respect of fire protection, this appliance corresponds to type Y (EN 60
335-2-6). Only this type of appliance may be installed with a high cup-
board 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.
• Ensure that the seal is correctly seated against the work surface without
any gaps. Additional silicon sealant must not be applied; this would make
removal more difficult when servicing.
• The hob must be pressed out from below when removed.
