8. FITTING THE APPLIANCE
8.1 Fitting the appliance in the top
This appliance is in class 3. The procedures required below must be
carried out by a skilled builder and/or joiner.
The hob can be installed on various materials, including masonry, metal,
solid wood and wood finished with plastic laminates, provided the material
is heat-resistant (T 90° C).
8.1.1 Installing to a traditional built-in structure
Make a hole in the cabinet top with the dimensions shown here,
maintaining a distance of at least 110 mm from the rear edge. This
appliance may be installed against walls higher than the worktop surface,
provided the distance "X" shown here is maintained, in order to prevent
damage due to overheating. Make sure that there is at least 750 mm
between the hob burners and any shelving placed vertically above them.

CAUTION: IF YOU ARE INSTALLING A HOB WITH FISH BURNER, THE
DISTANCE "X" FROM THE REAR WALL INCREASES FROM 110 mm TO
300 mm.
Fit the insulating gasket provided carefully around the outside edge of the
hole made in the top, pressing it down with your hands so that its entire
surface fits snugly. Now place the 12 brackets supplied to secure the top to
the supporting structure. See point "6.2 Securing the appliance to the
cabinet"
