INSTALLATION IN KITCHEN CABINET WITH DOOR
The fixture has to be made according to specific
requirements in order to prevent the gas burners from going
out, even when the flame is turned down to minimum, due to
pressure changes while opening or closing the cupboard
doors.
When the hob is installed above a cupboard with doors, a
separate panel must be installed underneath it. Leave a gap
of at least 20 mm clearance between the cooktop and the
surface of the panel, which must be easily removable to
allow sufficient access for any servicing procedures. NOTE:
When installing above a cupboard, a dividing shelf (as shown
in the diagram) must be installed. If installed above an under-
bench oven, this is not required. Installation of an oven
without a cooking fan underneath the hob is forbidden.
A distance of at least 150 mm is required between the sides
of the cooktop and any internal wall of the cupboard.
PREPARING AND PLACING THE GAS COOKTOP FOR INSTALLATION
Every cooktop is provided with a set of brackets for fitting the unit to a bench top with thickness from 3
to 4 cm and a seal with adhesive on one side.
- Remove burner and trivet.
- Turn the cooktop over and rest the top face on a cloth.
- Apply the self-adhesive seal to the bottom edge of the glass where it will sit on the bench.
- Position the cooktop in the bench recess. Fix the four brackets to the bottom of the cooktop (two
each front and rear into the 4 slots in the base panel) with a single screw. For 30 mm bench tops, add
the small extension piece to each bracket. Tighten up the screws to secure the cooktop to the bench.
