UNPACKING OF THE APPLIANCE

Inside the appliance you will find a plastic bag containing the fixing brackets required
for installing the hob in the worktop.

RECOMMENDATIONS

TO GET THE BEST FROM YOUR APPLIANCE, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY.

Please keep the operating and installation instructions in a safe place for future
reference. Before fixing the hob, note the serial number of the appliance just in case you
should require repairs from our after sales service organisation at some time in the future.

• All accessible parts of the hob will become hot while in operation. Always keep

children away from it.

• The hob should be given a quick clean after each use, to avoid the accumulation of
spillages and grease. If spillages are not removed, they will harden, and could cause the
production of smoke and unpleasant smells.

• When cooking with fats or oils, never leave hot plates unattented. Overheated fats or oils
can quickly catch fire.

INSTALLATION

Installing a domestic appliance can be a complicated operation which, if not carried
out correctly , can seriously affect consumer safety.

It is for this reason that the task should be undertaken by a professionally
qualified person who will carry it out in accordance with the technical regulations in
force.

In the event that this advice is ignored and the installation is carried out by an
unqualified person, HOOVER declines all responsibility for any technical failure
of the product whether or not it results in damage to goods or injury to individuals.

INSTALLATION: "BUILDING-IN"

Both the unit into which the hob will be fitted and any adjacent kitchen furniture must be
made of heat resistant material and fixed with heat resistant adhesive.

If, when installing the hob, the lower part of the casing is adjacent to an area normally
accessible when handling or cleaning, fit a heatproof partition 1 cm below the base of
the casing, with a 10x10 cm opening in the rear right-hand corner, to avoid any risk of
burning or damage.

There should also be a 5 cm gap between the appliance and all adjacent vertical
surfaces.

A foam adhesive seal is supplied with the hob. Stick this seal under the edge of the body
as near as possible to the outer edge of the hob. Press round the edges of the hob,
so that the seal flattens out and ensures an air tight seal.
