Building in
Fit wall units and cooker hood
before fitting the gas hob, to avoid
damaging the hob.
~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.
~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.
~Ideally the hobs should be installed
with plenty of space on either side.
There may be a wall at the rear and wall
or tall units at one side. On the other
side however, no unit or divider should
stand higher than the hob.
Due to the heat radiated by the hob
and to allow cooking fumes to
dissipate it is essential that a
minimum safety distance ais
maintained between the worktop
cut-out and adjacent furniture, e.g. a
tall unit, as follows:
100 mm with KM 404 / 405
250 mm with KM 406
200 mm with KM 414 / 417
There must be a minimum safety
distance of 50 mm between the hob
and a back wall.

~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 288 mm between these two
appliances.
~These appliances must not be
installed over a dishwasher, washing
machine, tumble dryer, refrigerator or
freezer. The high temperatures radiated
by hobs could damage the appliance
below.
~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.
Safety distance above appliances
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.
When two or more appliances are
installed together below a cooker
hood, e.g. a combiset and a gas
wok combiset, which have different
safety distances given in their
installation instructions you should
select the greater distance of the
two.
All dimensions in this instruction booklet
are given in mm.
Keep these instructions in a safe place
and pass them on to any future owner
of the appliance.
