Preparing the worktop
^
Make the worktop cut-out according
to the dimensions given in the
building-in diagram. Remember to
maintain the minimum safety
distances (see "Safety instructions
for installation").
^
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
No spring clamps are needed to
install the hob. The seal underneath
the hob will hold it securely on the
worktop.
Any gap between the frame and
worktop will reduce with time.
Connecting the mains cable to the
appliance
The mains cable must only be
connected to the appliance by a
qualified and competent electrician
in strict accordance with current
local and national safety regulations
(BS 7671 in the UK).
^
Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see "Electrical connection -
Wiring diagram").
Installing the hob
^
Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
^
Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal under the hob sits flush with the
worktop on all sides. This is important
to ensure an effective seal all round.
Do not use sealant (e.g. silicone).
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners the corner
radius (ß R4) can be carefully
scribed to suit.
^ Connect the hob to the mains.
^ Check that the hob works.
