If required by the National Electrical
Code (or Canadian Electrical Code), this
appliance must be installed on a separate
branch circuit.
The circuit breaker should have a contact
separation of at least 3 mm on all poles.
Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified
technician. Installation, electrical
connections and grounding must comply
with all applicable codes.
Before installing, turn power OFF at the
service panel. Lock service panel to
prevent power from being turned ON
accidentally.
WARNING
IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN A
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Related Equipment Safety
The appliance should only be used if
installed by a qualified technician in
accordance with these installation
instructions. The manufacturer is not
responsible for any damage resulting
from incorrect installation.
Never modify or alter the construction of
the appliance. For example, do not
remove leveling legs, panels, wire covers
or anti-tip brackets/screws.
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by
reaching over heated surface units,
cabinet storage space located above the
surface units should be avoided. If
cabinet storage is to be provided, the risk
can be reduced by installing a hood that
projects horizontally a minimum of 5
inches (127 mm) beyond the bottom of
the cabinet.
Verify that cabinets above the cooktop are
a maximum of 13" (330 mm) deep.
DO NOT install refrigerators,
dishwashers, ovens (without ventilation),
or washing machines below the Cooktop.
Note: We strongly recommend the
installation of a ventilation system with
this appliance.

Cabinet Requirements
The distance from the top of the cooktop to the bottom of
cabinets above must be a minimum of A=30" (762 mm)
min. This distance can be reduced to A=24" (610 mm)
when the bottom of the wood or metal cabinet is
protected by not less than ¼" (6.35 mm) flame-retardant
millboard covered with not less than no. 28 gauge sheet
metal, 0.015" (0.4 mm) stainless steel, 0.024" (0.6 mm)
aluminum or 0.020" (0.5 mm) copper.
Verify that the cabinets above the cooktop are a maximum
of B=13" (330 mm) deep.
Countertop Requirements
WARNING
To reduce the risk of ignition of surrounding
combustible materials, install at least 2" (51 mm)
from both sidewalls and the rear wall.
The countertop must be level and horizontal. The stability
of the countertop must be maintained after the cut-out has
been made.
Solid surface countertops often require special
installations. For example, heat-reflective tape and
rounded corners may be necessary. Contact the
countertop manufacturer for instructions specific to your
countertop.

en-us Prepare Installation Space
Prepare Installation Space
PrepareInstallationSpace Create the cut-out in the countertop according to the
installation diagram. The angle of the cut surface to the
countertop must be 90°.
The lateral cut-out edges must be flat in order to ensure
that the retaining springs are positioned properly on the
appliance. With multi-layered countertops, secure strips
laterally in the cut-out if necessary.
After creating cut-out, remove shavings. Seal cut surfaces
in a heat- and water-resistant manner.
Observe minimum distance between device underside
and cabinet surfaces of 3/8" (10 mm).
The worktop into which the cooktop is installed must be
heat-resistant up to 140° F (90 °C).
The worktop must be reinforced if it is less than 4/5inch
(20 mm) thick.
If the thickness of the worktop into which the cooktop is
installed does not comply with the specifications,
reinforce the worktop using a fire- and water-resistant
material until it reaches the minimum thickness.
Otherwise, sufficient stability cannot be assured.
ʑThe worktop into which the cooktop is installed should
withstand loads of approx. 133 lbs (60 kg).
ʑOnly check the evenness of the cooktop after it has
been installed.
Flush Mounting
Flush mounting into a countertop is possible.
For flush installation in tiled countertops:
Note: If necessary, raise the support surfaces using heat
and water resistant strips.
Flush installation: The appliance can be installed in the
following temperature- and water-resistant countertops:
ʑStone countertops
ʑPlastic countertops (such as Corian®)
ʑSolid wood countertops: Only in consultation with the
manufacturer of the countertop (seal cut-out edges)
ʑInstallation in other countertops only in consultation
with the manufacturer of the countertop.
Installation in countertops made of particleboard is not
possible.
Note: Any cut-out work on the countertop must be
performed in a workshop according to the installation
diagram. The cut-out must be made cleanly and precisely
since the cut-out edge is visible on the surface. Clean and
degrease the cut-out edges with a suitable cleaning agent
(bear in mind silicone manufacturer's processing
instructions).

Flush mounting: Flush mounting into a countertop is
possible. Combining several Vario devices
The connecting strip VA 420 000/001/010/011 is
required for the combination of several Vario appliances.
This is available separately as a special accessory.
Consider additional space requirement for the connecting
strip between the appliances when making the cut-out
(see installation instructions VA 420 000/001/010/011).
Appliances can also be installed in individual cut-outs,
bearing in mind a minimum distance between the devices
of 2" (51 mm).
When combining several appliances with or without
appliance cover, you can use the appliance extensions
VA 450 110/-401/-600/-800/-900 (depending on
appliance width) to balance out dimension differences.

Ventilation
To assure that the appliance works correctly, the cooktop
MUST be sufficiently ventilated.
Since the ventilation in the lower section of the appliance
requires a sufficient supply of fresh air, the cabinet must
be designed accordingly. The following is required for
this:
ʑA minimum clearance between the rear of the
cupboard and the kitchen wall, and between the
surface of the worktop and the upper area of the
drawer.
ʑAn opening at the top to the rear of the cupboard.
ʑIf the minimum clearance of 25/32 inch (20 mm) is not
provided at the rear of the cupboard, you must create
an opening on the underside.
ʑIf the inside of the cupboard is no wider than
29 1/2inch (750 mm), make cutouts in the side panels.
Note: If the appliance is installed in an island unit or
another installation that is not described here, you must
ensure that the cooktop is sufficiently ventilated.

en-us Installation Procedure
Installation Procedure
InstallationProcedure CAUTION
Sharp edges. Use protective gloves when installing
the cooktop.
Note: The appliance is heavy. It is advisable to install it
with a second person.
Installing the heat shield
CAUTION
Sharp edges. Use protective gloves when installing
the plate.
For safety reasons, the heat shield must be properly
installed when closed cabinets are used. This prevents
components from overheating as a result of the
recirculation of hot air from the cooktop.
The heat shield is the same width as the cooktop. For
shipping, it is screwed to the burner box.
After unpacking the cooktop, unscrew the heat shield.
The heat shield will be able to rotate freely, as shown in
the illustration.
Install Appliance
WARNING
Before you plug in an electrical cord or turn on
power supply, make sure all controls are in the OFF
position.
1. Evenly insert appliance into cut-out. Press appliance
firmly into the cut-out.
CAUTION
Do not kink or pinch connecting cable.
2. Only for flush installation:
Check appliance for functionality first (see section
“Check the installation").
Fill in the gap between the worktop and the ceramic
cooktop using a suitable heat-resistant silicone
adhesive (e.g. Novalsil® S70, Ottoseal® S70). Smooth
the sealing joint using the smoothing agent
recommended by the silicone manufacturer. Check the
usage information for the silicone adhesive.
Do not turn on the appliance until after the silicone
adhesive has completely dried (at least 24 hours,
depending on room temperature).
