INSTALLATION
Technical information for the Installer
This cooktop can be embedded in a worktop 20 to 50 mm
thick. If there is no oven beneath the cooktop (any oven
installed must be manufactured by us and equipped with a
cooling system), insert a separator panel at a minimum
distance of 20 mm from the bottom of the cooktop.
Note: before installation, make sure that the local gas
delivery conditions (nature and pressure of gas) are
compatible with the settings of the cooktop, as indicated on
the Product Description Sheet and on the rating plate.
• If a vertical piece of furniture is installed, there must be
a gap of at least 100 mm between it and the edge of the
cooktop.
•
Before installation, remove the plastic film protecting the
appliance, if provided.
The outer surfaces of the furniture or appliances adjacent to
the cooktop must be heat resistant (heat protection “
Y
”)
according to standards.
•
Installation must comply with current local regulations.
•
In the room where the cooktop is installed, there must be
enough air to allow the gas to burn correctly
(see the separate Product Description Sheet).
•
The natural flow of air must take place through an adequate
opening, that must be:
- permanent, made on one of the outside walls of the room,
and communicating with the exterior in an area away from
sources of pollution;
- built so as to ensure that its openings, both on the inside
and on the outside, cannot be obstructed, intentionally or
accidentally;
- protected by a metal grid or mesh that does not reduce its
working section;
- situated near the floor level and positioned so as not to
interfere with the operation of the fume exhaust devices.
- The fume exhaust has to take place through an appropriate
hood or fan installed on the wall or on the window.
Assembly
• Apply the supplied gasket to the cooktop (if not yet
fitted), after having cleaned its surface as shown in the
relevant figure.
To secure the cooktop, use brackets
(A)
supplied with it.
1.
Fit the brackets into the relevant bores and fasten them by
means of their screws.
2.
Make an opening in the worktop, respecting the dimensions
indicated in the enclosed Product Description Sheet.
3.
Install the cooktop in the worktop.
Important: the power supply cable and plug must be
suitable for the power absorption of the cooktop, and the
cable must be long enough to permit its upward extraction.
