Neff M3146N1 - Manual (Page 5)

Instructions for
the installation technician
All operations with regard to the installation,
control and adaptation to another type of
gas must be carried out by authorised
personnel from our Technical
Assistance Service and comply with the
current regulations and requirements of
the gas companies.
IMPORTANT: Before you begin, turn off
the gas and electricity supply to the
appliance.
Before connecting up the appliance to
the installation, first check that it has been
adjusted for the type of gas that is to be
supplied. Our cooking hobs leave the
factory set to function with the type of gas
that is indicated on the specifications plate.
The place where the appliance is to be
installed must have regulation ventilation
so that flue gases are piped outside.
Check the dimensions of the cooking
hob as well as the dimensions of the gap
to be cut in the kitchen unit.
The panels on the work surface, in the
immediate vicinity of the cooking hob, must
be made of non-flammable material.
Both the stratified surfacing and the glue
used to secure it should be heat resistant,
to prevent deterioration.
Electrical cables must not come into
contact with hot areas.
The power cable must be secured to the
kitchen unit to prevent it from touching any
hot parts of the oven or the cooking hob.
All appliances containing any electrical
components must be earthed.
Read these instructions before installing
or using the appliance.
IN THE EVENT THAT THESE
RECOMMENDATIONS ARE NOT
OBSERVED, THE INSTALLATION
TECHNICIAN WILL BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED, AND THE
MANUFACTURER WILL BE EXEMPT
FROM ALL RESPONSIBILITY.
Installing the cooking
hob in the kitchen unit
Insertion measurements
1 - Minimum Distances (mm). Make the
appropriate sized cut in the work surface.
Figure 1.
For installation over an oven, check the
dimensions of the oven according to your
assembly manual.
If while using a hob with a control
module it was possible to access its lower
part, a separator will be needed in order
to avoid possible contact. The minimum
distance of this separator to the support
level of the hob must be 130 mm.
Place the cooking hob in the gap cut
into the kitchen unit.
2 - When the wood fibres used for the
production of the cooking hob modules
become damp they expand quite rapidly.
We therefore recommend that the cut
edges are treated with a special glue to
protect them from steam or any
condensation that might drip down beneath
the work surface of the cooker unit.
Depending on the model, the clips and
the watertight seal (underside of the
cooking hob) may already be fitted; if this
is the case, do not under any
circumstances remove them.
The seal ensures that the entire work
surface will be watertight, and prevents
water seepage.
If they are not fitted, remove the pan
supports, the burner covers and the
diffusers of the cooking hob and place the
hob upside down, and put the adhesive
seal supplied with the appliance on the
underside of the cooking hob Fig. 2.
3 - Remove the clips from the accessory
bag provided.
Depending on the appliance model, your
type of clamp may be similar to the one
shown in Fig. 3 or Fig. 4.
- If your type of clamp is the same as
the one illustrated in Fig. 3:
• Place them in the holes designed for
this.
Insert and simultaneously press the ends
so that the cooking hob is supported
uniformly on its perimeter.
• If you need to disassemble the
appliance, simply push it upwards from
underneath.
- If your type of clamp is the same as
the one illustrated in Fig. 4:
• Screw them to the points underneath
provided for this, with the clamp facing
inwards to enable its subsequent insertion
in the kitchen unit.
Insert and simultaneously press the ends
so that the cooking hob is supported
uniformly on its perimeter.
• Turn and screw the clamps for correct
mounting.
4 - The end of the inlet collector of the
gas hob has an elbow with 1 /
2
" thread
Figure 5a.
This elbow allows for:
• A rigid connection.
• Connection using a flexible metal pipe.
With this option, you must prevent the pipe
from coming into contact with moving parts
of the insertion unit (for example, a drawer)
or access to any spaces which might
become obstructed If the cooking hob is
joined to an oven, as in Figure 6, or if there
is obstruction between the flexible pipe
and the oven, turn the elbow so as not to
create pressure in the pipe, bearing in
mind the position of the elbow according
to Figure 1. Make sure that after having
turned the elbow there is no leak.
In order to use this appliance in France
you need to remove the factory-assembled
adaptor and place the one found in the
accessory bag, Fig. 5b, without forgetting
to include the seal.
Except in the conditions outlined, it is not
possible to move or turn the elbow from
the position it is in when it leaves the
factory. If for any reason the elbow is
turned, you must ensure that the area is
sealed correctly.
Make sure that all connections made
are airtight.
The manufacturer is exempt from all
responsibility with regard to leaks, if
the elbow is moved or turned, as well
as connections made by the installation
technician.
5 - The following should be checked in
the specifications plate: the voltage and
the total power. This appliance must be
EARTHED.
Always make certain that all
connections made are in accordance with
national legal requirements. Observe all
the local electricity supply company
regulations.
To comply with normal safety
requirements, the installation technician
should provide an omni-pole cut-off switch
with a contact opening of at least 3 mm.
This appliance is type "Y", which means
that the supply cable MUST NOT BE
REPLACED BY THE USER; this can only
be done by the manufacturer's technical
services department.
Do not make any adjustments to the interior
of the appliance. If this is necessary, call
our technical assistance service.
Installation of oven and
connection with cooking
hob
1 - Oven preparation:
2 - Preparation of cooking hob:
a) Check type of gas:
Check that the appliance leaves the factory
with the type of gas it requires. If it does
not, the burner tips will need to be changed
and the minimum point of the tap fittings
adjusted. (See section Changing gas type
in these instructions).
b) Check the insertion situation:
Kitchen unit and distances to the insertion
space.

3 - Installation of cooking hob
If the cooking hob has not yet been inserted
into its space, place it there and make
sure it has been secured to the unit. Also
connect the gas as previously described.
Raise and secure the universal joints to
the bottom of the cooking hob with the
help of adhesive tape or gum, if the cooking
hob does not have this.

This appliance can only be installed in a
well ventilated place in accordance with
existing regulations and ventilation
specifications. The appliance must not be
connected to a combustion product's disposal
device.
