Safety instructions for installation
Damage risk from incorrect installation.
Incorrect installation can cause damage to the hob.
The hob must only be installed by a qualified person.
Risk of electric shock.
Incorrect connection to the mains supply may result in an electric shock.
The hob must be connected to the electrical supply by a qualified person only.
Damage from falling objects.
Take care not to damage the hob when fitting wall units or a cooker hood above
it.
Fit the wall units and the cooker hood before the hob.
 The veneer or laminate coatings of worktops (or adjacent kitchen
units) must be treated with 100°C heat-resistant adhesive which will
not dissolve or distort. Any backmoulds must be of heat-resistant
material.
 The hob must not be installed over a fridge, fridge-freezer, freezer,
dishwasher, washing machine, washer-dryer or tumble dryer.
 This hob must not be installed above ovens or cookers unless
these have a built-in cooling down fan.
 After installation, ensure that nothing can come into contact with
the connection cable and that it is without hindrance.
 The electrical cable may not come into contact with any moving
kitchen component (e.g. a drawer) or be subject to mechanical
obstruction which could damage it.
 Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.

Safety distances
Safety distance above the hob
The safety distance specified by the
manufacturer of the cooker hood must
be maintained between the hob and the
cooker hood above it.
If combustible objects are installed
above the hob (e.g., cabinets, utensil
rail, etc.), a minimum safety distance of
600mm must be maintained.
When two or more appliances which
have different safety distances are
installed together below a cooker
hood, you should observe the
greatest specified safety distance.

Safety distances to the sides and
back of the appliance
It is advisable to install the hob with
plenty of space either side of it.
The minimum distance  shown below
must be maintained between the back
of the hob and a tall unit or wall.
The minimum distance ,  shown
below must be maintained between a
tall unit or a wall to the left or right of
the hob with a minimum distance of
300mm on the opposite side.
Minimum distance between the back
of the worktop cut-out and the rear
edge of the worktop:
50mm
Minimum distance between the
worktop cut-out and a wall or tall unit to
the right of it:
50mm.

Minimum safety distance underneath
the hob
To ensure sufficient ventilation to the
hob, a minimum safety distance must
be left between the underside of the
hob and any oven, intermediate shelf or
drawer.
The minimum safety distance between
the underside of the hob and
- Upper edge of oven: 15mm
- Upper edge of intermediate shelf:
15mm
- Upper edge of drawer: 5mm
- Base of drawer: 75mm
Intermediate shelf
It is not necessary to fit an intermediate
shelf underneath the hob, but one may
be fitted if you wish.
Leave a gap of 10mm at the back
between the cabinet and the
intermediate shelf to accommodate
the power cable.
A gap of 20mm is recommended at the
front between the cabinet and
intermediate shelf for better ventilation
of the hob.

Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with additional
niche cladding
A minimum safety distance must be maintained between the worktop cut-out and
any niche cladding to protect it from heat damage.
If the niche cladding is made from a combustible material (e.g. wood) a minimum
safety distance  of 50 mm must be maintained between the cut-out and the
cladding.
If the niche cladding is made from a non-combustible material (e.g. metal, natural
stone, ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance  between the cut-out and the
cladding will be 50 mm less the thickness of the cladding.
Example: 15 mm niche cladding
50mm - 15mm = minimum safety distance of 35mm

Installation notes
Surface-mounted installation
Seal between the hob and the
worktop
Damage caused by incorrect
installation.
Using sealant under the hob could
result in damage to the hob and the
worktop if the hob ever needs to be
removed for servicing.
Do not use sealant between the hob
and the worktop.
The sealing strip under the edge of
the hob provides a sufficient seal for
the worktop.
Tiled worktops
Grout lines and the hatched area
underneath the hob frame must be
smooth and even. If they are not the
hob will not sit flush with the worktop
and the sealing strip underneath the
hob will not provide a good seal
between the hob and the worktop.

11271160-03
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
Flush-fit installation
Flush-fit installation is only possible in
natural stone (granite, marble), solid
wood and tiled worktops. Certain
models are suitable for building into
glass worktops – please see the
relevant label on the hob. When using
a worktop made from any other
material, please check first with the
worktop manufacturer that it is
suitable for installing a flush-fit hob.
The internal width of the base unit
underneath the appliance must be at
least as wide as the inner worktop cut-
out (see “Installation – Building-in
dimensions – flush fit”), so that the
hob is easily accessible from
underneath after installation and the
bottom half of the casing can be
removed for maintenance. If the
underside of the hob is not freely
accessible after installation, any
sealant used to plug the gaps around
the appliance must be removed to
enable the hob to be lifted out of the
cut-out should this be necessary.
Natural stone worktops
The hob is set directly in the cut-out.
Solid wood worktops, tiled worktops,
glass worktops
The hob is secured inside the cut-out
with wooden battens. The battens must
be provided on site, and are not
supplied with the appliance.
Sealing strip
Dismantling the hob for service
purposes may damage the sealing
strip underneath the edge of the hob.
Always replace the sealing strip
before reinstalling the hob.

Surface-mounted installation
Create the worktop cut-out.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see “Installation –
Safety distances”).
Seal any cut surfaces on wooden
worktops with a special varnish,
silicone sealant or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture ingress. The sealant must
be heat-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
Stick the supplied sealing strip under
the edge of the hob. Do not apply the
sealing strip under tension.
Risk of damage from incorrect
connection.
The hob electronics may be
damaged if a short-circuit occurs.
The power cable must be connected
to the hob by a qualified electrician.
Connect the power cable by following
the instructions in the wiring diagram
on the hob (see “Installation –
Electrical connection”).
Feed the power cable for the hob
down through the worktop cut-out.
Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal of the appliance sits flush with
the worktop on all sides. This is
important to ensure an effective seal
all round.
If the seal does not sit flush with the
worktop in the corners, the corner
radius (≤R4) can be carefully cut to fit
using a jigsaw.
Connect the hob to the electricity
supply (see “Installation – Electrical
connection”).
Check that the hob works.
