Installation - Model E6002
These instructions are intended for the qualified technician
installing the appliance in order to insure that the installation,
adjustments and maintenance procedures are performed
correctly and comply with the regulations currently in effect.
Important: the hob must be disconnected from the
power supply before making any adjustments or
performing any maintenance, etc.
Installing built-in hobs
The hob has a type X protection rating against overheating
in compliance with regulation CEI 335-2-6. Therefore, the
hob cannot be installed alongside of cabinets which are
higher than the surface of the hob itself. The following
precautionary measures should be observed in order to
ensure proper installation:
a) Hoods must be installed in compliance with the required
specifications contained in the instruction manual for
the hood itself.
b) The built-in ceramic glass top can be installed on any
counter top as long as it is 600 mm or more in width
and resistant to temperatures of up to 100°C.

These measurements must absolutely be observed in
so far as improper installation can cause the surrounding
surface areas to overheat. It is recommended that the
hob be installed at a distance of at least 40 mm from
the back wall or other vertical surfaces to ensure that
the air circulates properly over the cooking area and to
avoid overheating the surrounding surfaces. A seal or
gasket is provided with the hob; make sure that it
adheres properly to the bottom part of the frame of the
hob. The seal must fit properly around the entire hob
frame and especially along the corners in order to create
a seal between the counter top and the hob itself so as
to prevent spills or splashes from leaking into the
cabinet below.
Very important
It is essential to install the hob on a totally flat surtace.
Any damage caused by incorrect fitting may alter the
characteristics or impair performance.
Insert the hob into the hole, pressing firmly around the
frame to make it adhere to the counter top.
Make certain that the seal around the outside edge of
the hob is correctly installed in order to avoid any
leakage into the cabinetry below.
The four securing springs are held in place by 4 Torx screws.
To remove the hob unit from its housing, undo the 2 Torx
screws at the front, then the 2 Torx screws at the rear.
The 4 screws should be accessible at all times for this
purpose.

c) If a wooden panel is installed beneath the hob for
insulation purposes, it must be positioned at least 20
mm from the bottom part of the hob itself.
Note: If the hob is installed above a built-in oven, it is
preferable that the oven be installed in such a way that it
is set on two strips of wood; if, on the other hand, the oven
is installed on a continuous base, there must be an opening
in the back of at least 45 x 560 mm.

properly within the cabinet. Figures provide illustration of
possible installation solutions.
