The hob must be built into the worktop of a sup-
port cupboard. This worktop must be at least 3
cm thick and heat-resistant or else coated with a
heat resistant material.
A side-clearance of at least 30 cm should be left
to the right and left of the hob. A tall cupboard
or partition too close to the hob would hinder
free movement of kitchen utensils.
If a horizontal partition is put under the hob, it
must be placed between 10 and 15 cm from the
bottom of the worktop. In any case, do not keep
any sprays or pressurized containers in the com-
partment which could be just under the hob.
•
Before installing the hob the seal provi-
ded in the wallet must be stuck in position to
prevent any foreign bodies or liquids getting
between the hob and the worktop:
1- Remove the pan support grates, the burner
caps and heads after checking their position.
2- Turn the hob over and place it gently over
the opening in the worktop paying attention
not to damage the control knobs, thermo-
couples and lighters.
3- Stick the foam seal delivered with the ap-
pliance around the outside of the hob. This
seal prevents anything getting between the
glass and the worktop.
•
Put the burners, caps and pan grates back
into position.
•
Connect the hob power cable to your kitchen
electricity supply (See "Electrical Connec-
tions" for your hob).
•
Connect your appliance to the gas supply
(See "Gas connections").
If you want, you can fix the hob in position
on its four corners, using the four lugs and
screws provided (See diagram).
Only use the holes provided.
Stop screwing when the lug starts to
bend.
Do not use a power screwdriver.
