For the kitchen furniture installer
Safety instructions
Please note that veneers and plastic coatings
on the unit housings must be treated with heat-
resistant adhesive (100°C). Uniess the plastic
coatings and adhesives are heat-resistant, the
coating may deform or come loose.
The use of solid wood wali upstands behind
the hob is allowable so long as the minimum
distances indicated in the hob diagrams are
complied with.
Surface discoiourations of the wali upstand are
not due to temperature effects of the appiiance.
For temperature reasons, cut out any upper
panels of base units below the hob.
Owing to the risk of fire, ensure that no flam­
mable or thermally deformable objects are
placed directly below the hob.
Do not install a drawer below build-in hobs.
An intermediate panel must be fitted, that can
only be detached with tools, at least 50 mm
beneath the hob for safety (contact protec­
tion) reasons.
There should be no cross-strips below the
worktop cutout. They should be sawn back at
least as far as the worktop cutout size.
The minimum distances of hob cutouts to the
rear are indicated in the installation diagrams
(figure 5).
During installation beside an upright kitchen
housing, a
safety distance of at least 50' mm
must be ensured. The side surface of the
upright kitchen housing should be lined with
heat-resistant material.
For reasons of good working practice, the
distance laterally to upright kitchen units
should be at least 300 mm.
The distance between the hob and vapour
extractor hood must be of the extent indi­
cated in the installation instructions of the
vapour extractor hood.
Hob Cutout
Use the template supplied for your “Soft Line”
ceramic hob.
Figure 5
Hobs with a width of 77 cm should be fitted
over only two 60 cm base units (rather than
three) to avoid the loss of the third drawer
space. Please make sure that the cutout is
accurately made. You should therefore use
only a good, straight fretsaw blade or else
a routing cutter.
The cutting surfaces must be sealed.
The range of the clamping brackets extends
from 30 mm to 40 mm. With thicker worktops
recesses should be provided in the worktop
at suitable points.
The clamping brackets are fastened according
to
figure 6/1,2.
Hob Instaliation
1 . Take the mean according to figure 8.
2. Attach fixing bracket to figure 9.
3. Cut off top half fixing brackets (figure 10)
with a knife.
4. Insert hob according to (figure 7) and place
it horizontally, level in the worktop.
5. The two clamps firmly fitted on both sides
will grip under the fixing brackets (figure 11)
and retain the hob. For removing it proceed
in reverse order.
Important
Under no circumstances should drawers be
fitted in either of the base units straddled by
the hob.
