Safety distances underneath the hob
To ensure sufficient ventilation to the
hob, a certain gap must be left between
the underside of the hob and any oven,
interim shelf or drawer.
The minimum gap between the
underside of the hob and
–
the top of an oven is 15 mm.
–
the top of an interim shelf is 15 mm.
–
the base of a drawer is 75 mm.
Interim shelf
It is not necessary to fit an interim shelf
underneath the hob, but one may be
fitted if you wish.
Leave a gap of 10 mm at the back of
the shelf to accommodate the cable.
We recommend a gap at the front of the
shelf of 20 mm to ensure good
ventilation.
