Building in
Fit wall units and extractor hood
before fitting the hob, to avoid
damaging the appliance.
~The veneer or laminate coating 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.
~Ideally the gas hob should be
installed with plenty of space on either
side. There may be a wall at the rear
and a tall unit or wall at one side. On
the other side, however, no unit or
divider should stand higher than the
hob (see illustrations).
~This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage, subject to a risk
assessment of the installation being
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
Due to the heat radiated by the hob
and to allow cooking fumes to
dissipate, it is essential that a
minimum safety distance aof
150 mm is maintained between the
worktop cut-out and adjacent
furniture, e.g. a tall unit.

~The room in which the gas hob is
installed must be at least 20 m3in size
with a door or window in it which can
be opened to the outside air.
~Using the gas hob will cause a
build-up of heat and moisture in the
room in which it is installed. Ensure that
the room has sufficient natural or
mechanical means of ventilation, e.g.
an extractor.
~If the hob is used for very long
periods of time additional ventilation of
the room may be necessary, e.g. by
opening windows or doors, or running
the extractor on the highest setting.
~The hob may be installed above a
Miele oven, if the work-top is at least
40 mm thick.
~An electric fryer must not be
installed next to a gas hob, as the gas
flames could ignite the fat in the fryer. It
is essential to maintain a distance of at
least 300 mm between these two
appliances.
~This gas hob must not be installed
over a dishwasher, washing machine,
tumble dryer, refrigerator or freezer.
The high temperatures radiated by the
hob could damage the appliance
below.
Safety distance above the appliance
bA minimum safety distance must be
maintained between the appliance
and a cooker hood above it. See the
cooker hood manufacturer's
operating and installation instructions
for details.
If the manufacturer's instructions are
not available for the cooker hood, a
minimum safety distance of at least
760 mm must be maintained. For any
flammable objects, e.g. utensil rails,
wall units etc. a minimum distance of
at least 760 mm must be maintained
between them and the hob below.
All dimensions in this instruction booklet
are given in mm.
Keep these instructions in a safe place
and pass them on to any future
user/owner of the appliance.

Installation
13

Do not let sealant get in between the
hob frame and the worktop.
This could cause difficulties if the
hob ever needs to be taken out for
servicing and possibly result in
damage to the hob frame or the
worktop.
The sealing strip under the edge of the
top part of the hob provides a sufficient
seal for the worktop.
Installation
14

All electrical work should be carried
out by a suitably qualified and
competent person, in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations (BS 7671
in the UK).
Installation, repairs and other work
by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance until after installation or
repair work has been carried out.
The appliance must only be
operated when built-in. This is to
ensure that all electrical parts are
shielded. Live parts must not be
exposed.
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. These do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance.
Please make sure that the connection
data quoted on the data plate match
the household mains supply.
Connection should be made via a
suitable isolator or a double pole fused
spur connection unit which complies
with national and local safety
regulations and the on/off switch should
be easily accessible after the appliance
has been built in.
If the switch is not accessible after
installation (depending on country) an
additional means of disconnection must
be provided for all poles.
For extra safety it is advisable to install
a residual current device (RCD) with a
trip current of 30 mA.
When switched off there must be an
all-pole contact gap of 3 mm in the
isolator switch (including switch, fuses
and relays).
Important U.K.
This appliance is supplied for
connection to a single phase 230-240 V
50 Hz supply with a 3-core cable.
The wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Green/yellow = earth
Blue = neutral
Brown = live

Important
The electrical safety of this appliance
can only be guaranteed when
continuity is complete between it and
an effective earthing system, which
complies with current local and national
safety regulations. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
present and regularly tested and where
there is any doubt, the electrical wiring
in the home should be tested by a
qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for the
consequences of an inadequate
earthing system such as an electric
shock.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage which is the direct
or indirect result of incorrect
installation or connection.
Electrical connection
16

Connection to the gas supply, or
conversion from one type of gas to
another should only be undertaken
by an approved and registered gas
installer in strict accordance with
local and national safety and
building regulations, (e.g. Corgi
registered in the U.K.) Every
appliance should have its own
isolating valve and test point.
Check with your local gas supplier
about the type of gas and its
calorific value, and compare this
information with the type of gas
quoted on the hob data plate.
The installer is responsible for
ensuring that the appliance
functions correctly when installed.
Depending on country, the hob is
supplied ready for connection to natural
gas or liquid gas (refer to label on the
appliance).
United Kingdom:
GB II 2 H 3+ 20 mbar, 28-30/37 mbar
Ireland:
IE II 2 H 3+ 20 mbar, 28-30/37 mbar
Depending on country a set of jets for
conversion to natural or liquid gas may
be included with the hob.
Please contact your dealer or agent for
the appropriate conversion jets if
necessary.
Connection
Conversion to another type of gas is
described under the relevant Section.
The gas connection must be installed
so that connection can be made either
from inside or outside the kitchen unit,
and the isolating valve must be easily
accessible and visible (by opening one
of the kitchen unit doors, if necessary).
A test for possible leakages must be
carried out after installation.
Safety regulations demand that a
pressure test point is installed near a
gas hob to allow an engineer to test the
pressure, following servicing.

Natural gas / liquid gas
^The appliance is supplied with an
R 1/2" - ISO 7-1 (DIN 2999) gas
connection point.
^An appropriate rigid connection and
isolating valve must be installed for
final connection.
^The gas connection must be so sited
that it is not adversely heated when
the appliance is in operation.
After installing the appliance the gas
burners have to be set for local
conditions.
When the gas hob has been
installed it is essential to check that
neither the gas pipe nor the
electricity cable is in contact with hot
parts of the appliance or hot gas
exhaust, otherwise heat damage to
the pipe and cable could occur.
