The appliance must be installed by a qualified professional and connected to the electric power supply by a qualified electrician.
The cabinet and the hood above the cooktop must be installed before the cooktop to avoid damaging it.
The countertop must be heat-resistant (up to 100°C), so that it does not become deformed or the veneer detached.
The wall strips must be heat-resistant as well.
The cooktop must not be installed above refrigerators/freezers, dishwashers or washer/dryers.
This cooktop must not be installed above a stove or oven unless they have a built-in cooling fan.
Ensure that the electrical supply cable for the cooktop cannot touch the floor panel after installation nor be subject to any mechanical strain.

Clearance above the cooktop
For an exhaust hood above the cooktop, always use the clearance specified by the hood manufacturer. If there are no specifications from the hood manufacturer or if flammable materials (e.g. a utensil rail) are installed above the cooktop, the clearance must be at least 760 mm.
If there is more than one appliance installed below the exhaust hood, each with a different safety clearance, the largest clearance must be used.
