Installation instructions
Please note
KÜPPERSBUSCH built-in hob units may be combined only with KÜPPERS-
BUSCH built-in ovens with tangencial cooling an.
Exception: model series EGS. The use o any other make o hob unit shall ex-
empt Küppersbusch rom all liability. Failure to observe this requirement
will invalidate all granted certificates and labels of approval!
Hints on installation
■ It is absolutely essential that the worktop is aligned horizontally and that a
clean cut is made into it!
■ The ront, rear and lateral clearances around the hob unit must be main-
tained in accordance with the dimensional drawing.
A corner moulding o solid wood may be itted to the worktop at the back
o the hob unit provided that the minimum clearances are maintained.
For practical reasons the lateral clearance between the hob unit and an ad-
jacent tall cupboard unit must measure at least 300 mm.
■ Make sure that there is su icient clearance underneath the cut-out. Any ur-
niture battens must be cut away to leave an area which is at least the same
size as the cut-out itsel .
■ Make a point o ensuring that the plastic laminate or wood veneer on your
urniture surround has been applied by means o a heat-resistant adhesive
(100 °C).
■ Any cooker hoods or wall cupboards must have a vertical clearance o at
least 650 mm rom the hob unit.
It will be expedient to seal built-in sinks and other built-in appliances in the
worktop in the same way (protection against ingress o water).
Prior to installation and a ter removal or repair, examine the gasket or pos-
sible damage. The gasket must provide per ect contact on all our sides. Re-
place it i necessary.
In the case o ceramic-tiled worktops it is necessary to provide an additional
seal with the aid o a permanently elastic sealing compound. Such sealing
compound can be purchased as Küppersbusch spare part No. 53 55 69.
– Clean the sur aces to be sealed in accordance with the manu acturer's
instructions on the cartridge. Apply the compound in a continuous strip,
pressing it irmly against the gap to be sealed.
– Cut away any surplus sealing compound with a sharp kni e and clean the
sealed joint with water.
Installation o glass-ceramic hob units
Using clips makes it easier and quicker or you to install these units. You can
carry out the complete installation work rom above.
■ Always li t the cooking sur ace by holding it at the sides. Do not li t it by
the ront bar.
■ Be extremely care ul when installing! Do not place or drop any sharp or
pointed tools (screwdrivers etc.) on the glass sur ace!
■ The glass-ceramic cooking area must have a level and lush bearing. Any
distortion may lead to racture o the glass panel.
– First o all make a clean cut into the worktop.
– Make sure that the gasket is properly seated. I the worktop sur ace is un-
even (tiles etc.), remove the gasket strip and seal with a heat resistant seal-
ing compound.
– Then insert the clips into the worktop cut-out as shown in the igures on
the previous page, observing the clearances indicated. It is not necessary
to adjust the height due to the horizontal stop motion device.
– Now position the cooking sur ace on the le t as shown in igure, align it (2)
and clip it in (3).
I the worktop cut-out should be a little too
large, it is possible to increase the prelim-
inary spring tension o the clips by screw-
ing them down.
You only require the enclosed tension el-
ements S i you are itting the hob unit into
worktops made o granite, marble or sim-
ilar materials.
Elektrischer Anschluß
■ The built-in cooking area must be connected to the mains supply by
a qualified electrician who is authorized to carry out such work.
■ Both legal wiring regulations and the requirements o your local electricity
supply board must be ully complied with.
■ Sa eguard the appliance by means o line-protecting switches, uses or con-
tactors with at least 3 mm contact opening width.
■ When connecting and repairing the appliance disconnect it rom the elec-
tricity supply with one o these devices.
■ It must not be possible to touch nonconducting parts when the appliance is
installed.
■ The earthed conductor lead must be su iciently long so that, in the event
o ailure o the strain relie , it is not subjected to strain until a ter the live
wires o the connection cable.
■ Any super luous cable must be removed rom the installation area beneath
the appliance.
