INSTALLATION
Installation and maintenance must only be
carried out by a qualified technician.
Incorrect installation could cause damage to
persons, property and animals for which the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
Check that the appliance is in a good condition
after having removed the outer packaging and
internal wrappings from around the various loose
parts. If in doubt, do not use the appliance and
contact qualified personnel.
Never leave the packaging materials
(cardboard, bags, polystyrene foam, staples,
etc.) within children's reach since they could
become a potential source of danger.
4) INSTALLING
Installation in accordance with local
regulations.
The cut-out size for this appliance is 473 x 553
see fig. 4.
Remember that the cabinet can only withstand a
temperature of 120° C.
If a wood is installed above the hob, please look at
the hood manufacturer instructions regarding the
minimum distance between hood and hob (fig. 5).
5) FIXING THE HOB
The hob has a special seal which prevents liquids
from getting into the cabinet. Strictly comply with
the following instructions in order to correctly apply
this seal:
- Detach the seals from their backing, checking
that the transparent protection still adheres to the
seal itself.
- Overturn the hob and correctly position seal “E”
(fig. 6) under the edge of the hob itself, so that
the outer part of the seal ÿperfectly matches the
outer edge of the hob. The ends of the strips
must fit together without overlapping.
- Evenly and securely fix the seal to the hob,
pressing it into place with the fingers.
- Remove the strip of protective paper from the
seal. Fit the hooks into their relative housings in
the unit and set the hob into the hole in the
cabinet. Lock it in place with the fixing screws
“G” (see fig. 7).
