Recommendations
•
When you have removed the packing, check whether the appliance is intact. If you have any doubts, contact a
qualified professional before using the appliance.
•
Never leave the packing components (plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within the reach of children since
these are a source of potential danger.
•
The installation and electrical connection of your appliance should be performed by an authorised fitter or equivalent
qualified technical serviceman.
•
In the event of damage during transportation, do not commission the appliance.
•
If the appliance is faulty, unplug it from the mains electricity supply and call your nearest authorised after-sales
service centre.
•
The latter denies all responsibility for improper installation which may harm persons and animals and damage
property.
Installation
•
This hob can be built into a worktop simply by cutting out the corresponding slot.
•
The worktop must be made with a material designed to withstand a temperature of approximately 100°C.
•
The hob should be positioned at least 40 mm away from the back wall or any other vertical surface in order to allow
for correct ventilation and to prevent the surfaces around the appliance from overheating.
•
If you wish to install the hob on top of an oven, the latter must be fitted with a cooling fan.
•
Try to avoid installing the hob on top of a dishwasher; if this is unavoidable, place a watertight separating element
between the two appliances.

Fastening
Your hob is supplied with a seal.
Make sure it adheres perfectly to the lower surface of the hob frame. It is extremely important that the seal covers all the
hob corners completely and that it seals the latter perfectly along all its perimeter to ensure the full airtightness between
the hob and the worktop in order to prevent any accidental spills from penetrating the furniture cabinet beneath the hob.
Very important: It is vital that you ensure the glass ceramic hob is built into a perfectly flat supporting surface. Deformations
due to improper fastening could alter the characteristics of the hob and compromise its performance.
The fastening springs are fastened by Torx screws (see diagram on the next page).
To remove the hob from its place of installation, you should either unscrew the Torx screws at the front or the Torx screws
at the back.
This is why it is vital that these screws be kept accessible at all times.
Insert the hob into the cut-out slot, applying pressure all along the perimeter of the hob frame so that the latter adheres fully
to the worktop.
