Installing the honeycombs/honeycomb cooking units
Instructions for installing the honeycombs
Please note that the Küppersbusch Honeycomb Cooktops are recommended
only for installation into stone and certain solid surface worktops which have
a heat resistance in excess of (160 °C / 320 °F).
• Installation, connection and assembly of the honeycombs as well as the
installation of the worktop with the honeycomb cooktop may only be
carried out by a qualified technician.
• Please observe the respective instructions for the individual steps. Damage
to the worktop or to the honeycomb cooktop may result in the case of
failure to observe the instructions.
• Make sure that the worktop is perfectly horizontal!
• Take care when installing! Do not place or drop any sharp or pointed tools
(screwdrivers, etc.) onto the glass surfaces!
• Any lateral bars under the worktop cut-out for the honeycomb cooktop
must be cut back to the size of the cut-out if necessary.
• Please maintain a distance of least 70 mm (2-3/4") to the wall.
• A cover (for example, a 4-5 mm (3/16")-thick multi-layer plate) must be
installed under the honeycomb cooktop and at the back panel. This
prevents any accidental contact with connection cables and unintentional
plug disconnections.
Clearance between the cover and the honeycomb cooktop should be
approx. 10 mm (3/8") (see the illustration on the left). The cover may only
be removed with of tools.
• When installing the power component, a minimum distance to the ground
of 300 mm (11-13/16") is to be observed in accordance with the drawing.
• The rear panels and one side panel of the appliance can be installed on
an interior wall of any height. The furniture on the other side of the
appliance, however, must be flush with the appliance.
• The plastic coating or veneer must be applied with a heat-resistant
adhesive (160 °C / 320 °F). This adhesive prevents the surfaces from
warping or working loose. especially on the narrow sides of the fitted
cupboards.
