INSTALLATION
Recommendations
Important: Disconnect the hob from the mains before
carrying out any installation work or servicing.
All electrical connections must be made before
connecting the appliance to the power supply.
Installation must be carried out by a qualified technician
in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and
in compliance with local regulations.
Unpack the hob and make sure that the appliance has
not been damaged during transport.
If you are not
sure contact the dealer or the nearest service
centre.
Preparing the housing unit
Cut the worktop to fit before installing the appliance.
Carefully remove any shavings or sawdust that could
prevent the appliance from running properly.
Attention:
to install the hob on other surfaces than wood
(marble, plastic, ceramic, marble, stone, etc.) remember to
ask After Sales Service for the fixing plates (fig. 2) Code 4819
404 78697.
The hob must be fitted in a worktop with a minimum
thickness of 20 mm and a maximum of 50 mm.
Insert a separator panel at a minimum distance of
90 mm from the bottom of the hob, so that it cannot be
accessed by the user.
If there is an oven under the hob, make sure that it is
manufactured by us and equipped with a cooling
system.
There must be nothing between the hob and the oven
(e.g. cables, insulating material, etc.).
An adjacent column unit must be installed at least
100 mm from the edge of the hob.
Cut an opening in the worktop of the given dimensions.
We recommend you seal the internal edges of the
worktop with wood glue or silicone.
If not already in place, apply the supplied seal to the
hob, after cleaning the adhesive surface thoroughly.
Glass-ceramic hob
Important: remove any protective film before installing
the hob.
Make sure that that the opening in the worktop for the hob is
cut according to the dimensions given in the drawing, paying
attention to the tolerance range.
The hob should not be forced into the worktop. Forcing the
glass-ceramic top may cause it to crack (even at a later date)!
