Flush-fitted hobs
56
Installation notes
Flush fit hobs are only suitable for in‐
stallati
on in natural stone (granite,
marble), tiled or solid wood worktops.
Certain models are suitable for build‐
ing into glass worktops - please see
advice under "Building-in dimen‐
sions". When using a worktop made
from any other material, please check
first with the worktop manufacturer
that it is suitable for installing a flush
fit hob.
The internal width of the base unit
must be at least as w
ide as the inter‐
nal cut-out width for the hob (see
"Building-in dimensions"). This is to
ensure that the casing can be easily
removed for maintenance. If the un‐
derside of the hob is not freely acces‐
sible after installation, any sealant
used to plug the gaps around the ap‐
pliance must be removed to enable
the hob to be lifted out of the cut-out
should this be necessary.
The hob can be installed
– in a suitable cut-out in a natural
st
one worktop.
– in a suitable cut-out in a tiled or solid
wood workt
op or a glass worktop
with a wooden support frame. The
frame must be provided on site, and
is not supplied with the appliance.
