Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
Damage to the hob can compromise your safety. Check the hob
for visible signs of damage. Do not use the hob if it is damaged.
Reliable and safe operation of this hob can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The electrical safety of this hob can only be guaranteed when cor-
rectly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is
met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a
qualified electrician.
To avoid the risk of damage to the hob, make sure that the con-
nection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the
mains electricity supply before connecting it to the mains.
Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Do not connect the hob to the mains electrical supply by a multi-
socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not
guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, this hob may only be used after it has been
built in.
This hob must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).
Never open the casing of the hob.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
While the hob is under warranty, repairs should only be under-
taken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the warranty is invalidated.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
The hob is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote control system.
The hob must be connected to the electricity supply by a qualified
electrician (see “Electrical connection”).
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced
with a special connection cable by an electrician (see “Electrical
connection”).
The hob must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply
during installation, maintenance and repair work. Ensure that power
is not supplied to the appliance until after it has been installed or until any maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
If the hob is fitted with a communication module, in addition to
disconnecting the hob, this module must also be disconnected from
the mains electricity during installation and maintenance of the hob
as well as while any repair work is being carried out.
Danger of electric shock. Do not use the hob if it is faulty, or if the
ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Switch
it off immediately. Disconnect the hob from the mains electricity supply. Contact Miele Service.
If the hob is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door
while the hob is in use. Heat and moisture can build up behind the
closed door. This can result in damage to the hob, the housing unit
and the floor. Do not close the door until the residual heat indicators
go out.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
The hob gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while after be-
ing switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat
indicators go out.
Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the hob unat-
tended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite do not attempt
to put the flames out with water.
Disconnect the hob from the mains and use a suitable fire blanket,
saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do
not flambé under a cooker hood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances
in a drawer under the hob. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
Do not heat an empty pan.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the hob, as pressure can build up in the container, causing it to
explode.
Do not cover the hob, e.g. with a hob cover, a cloth or protective
foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the hob is
switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by mis-
take, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of any
metal items left on the hob heating up, with the danger of burning.
Depending on the material, other items left on the hob could also
melt or catch fire. Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic surface and be difficult to dislodge. Do not use the appliance as a resting place. Switch the cooking zones off after use.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
You could burn yourself on the hot hob. Protect your hands with
heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot pots and
pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender,
near the hob, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot
come into contact with the hot hob. The insulation on the cable
could become damaged.
Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can
cause scratches if they get under pan bases. Make sure that the
ceramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.
Even a light object can cause damage in certain circumstances.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.
Placing hot pans on the sensors and indicators could damage the
electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the sensors or indicators.
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the hob when it is hot, as they can damage the
ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should occur, switch off
the appliance and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminium
residues whilst still hot, using a shielded scraper blade suitable for
use on glass. Wear oven gloves when doing this. Allow the ceramic
surface to cool down and then clean it with a suitable ceramic hob
cleaning agent.
Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do
not leave the hob unattended whilst it is being used.
Only use pots and pans with smooth bases. Rough bases will
scratch the ceramic glass.
Lift pans into position on the hob. Sliding them into place can
cause scuffs and scratches.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Because induction heating works so quickly, the base of the pan
could, under certain circumstances, heat up to the temperature at
which oil or fat self-ignites within a very short time. Never leave the
hob unattended during use!
Heat oil or fat for a maximum of one minute. Never use the
Booster function to heat oil or fat.
For people fitted with a heart pacemaker: Please note that the
area immediately surrounding the hob is electromagnetically
charged. It is very unlikely to affect a pacemaker. However, if in any
doubt, consult the manufacturer of the pacemaker or your doctor.
To prevent damage to items which are susceptible to electromag-
netic fields, e.g. credit cards, digital storage devices, pocket calculators, etc, do not leave them in the immediate vicinity of the hob.
Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the hob can become hot if
the appliance is used intensively for a long time.
The hob is fitted with a cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted directly un-
derneath the hob, ensure that there is sufficient space between the
drawer and its contents and the underside of the hob in order to ensure sufficient ventilation for the hob. Do not store pointed or small
items or paper in the drawer. They could get in through the ventilation slots or be sucked into the casing by the fan and damage the
fan or impair cooling.
Never use two pans on a cooking zone, extended zone or Power-
Flex zone at the same time.
If the cookware only partially covers a cooking or extended zone,
the handle could become very hot.
Always place cookware in the middle of a cooking or extended zone!
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this hob.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
If the hob is built in over a pyrolytic oven, the hob should not be
used whilst the pyrolytic process is being carried out, as this could
trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the hob (see relevant section).
12
Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were
essential for their correct function and
safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if
disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that
may be stored on the appliance being
disposed of. Please ensure that your
old appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.

Before using for the first time
Please stick the extra data plate for
the appliance supplied with this documentation in the space provided in
the “After sales service” section of
this booklet.
Remove any protective wrapping and
stickers.
Cleaning the hob for the first
time
Before using for the first time, clean
the hob with a damp cloth only and
then wipe dry.
Switching on the hob for the
first time
The metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight
smell when heated up for the first time.
The induction coils may also give off a
slight smell for the first few hours of operation. This smell will be less noticeable with each subsequent use before
dissipating completely.
The smell and any vapours given off do
not indicate a faulty connection or appliance and they are not hazardous to
health.
Please note that the heating up time
on induction hobs is very much
shorter than on conventional hobs.
17
Induction
The induction principle
An induction coil is located under each
cooking zone. When a cooking zone is
switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field which impacts directly on the
base of the pan and heats it up. The
cooking zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.
An induction cooking zone only works
when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on
it (see “Pans”). The induction cooking
zone automatically recognises the size
of the pan.
On the control scale of the cooking
zone, power levels 1 to 9 flash:
- if the zone has been switched on
without a pan in place, or if the pan is
unsuitable (non-magnetic base),
- if the diameter of the base of the pan
is too small,
- if the pan is taken off the cooking
zone when it is switched on.
When the appliance is switched
on either deliberately or by mistake,
or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of any metal
items placed on the hob (e.g. cutlery)
heating up.
Danger of burning.
Do not use the hob as a resting
place for items. Switch the cooking
zones off after use with the appropriate sensor.
If a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone within 3 minutes you can continue as normal.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed
on the cooking zone, the cooking zone
will switch off automatically after 3
minutes.
18
Noises
When using an induction hob, the following noises can occur in the pan, depending on what it is made of and how
it has been constructed.
Buzzing on the higher power settings.
This will decrease or cease altogether
when the power setting is reduced.
If the pan base is made of layers of different materials (e.g. in a sandwiched
base), it might emit a crackling sound.
Whistling might occur if linked zones
(see “Operation - Booster”) are being
used at the same time, and the pans
also have bases made of layers of different materials.
You might hear a clicking sound from
the electronic switches, especially on
lower settings.
A whirring sound, when the cooling fan
comes on. This switches on to protect
the electronics when the hob is being
used intensively. The cooling fan may
continue to run after the appliance has
been switched off.
Induction

Induction
Pans
The following pan types are suitable:
- Stainless steel with a base that can
be magnetised,
- enamelled steel,
- cast iron.
The following pan types are not suit-able:
- Stainless steel pans without a magnetic base,
- aluminium and copper pans,
- glass, ceramic or earthenware pots
and pans.
To test whether a pot or pan is suitable
for use on an induction hob, hold a
magnet to the base of the pan. If the
magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
If an unsuitable pan is used, the 1-9
power levels will flash on the control
scale of the cooking zone.
The composition of the pan base can
affect the evenness of the cooking results (e.g. when browning pancakes).
- To make optimum use of the cooking
zones, choose pans with a suitable
diameter (see “Cooking zones”). If
the pan is too small it will not be recognised and the 1-9 power levels
will flash on the control scale of the
zone.
- Only use pots and pans with smooth
bases. Rough bases will scratch the
ceramic glass.
- Lift pans into position on the hob.
Sliding them into place can cause
scuffs and scratches.
- Often the maximum diameter quoted
by manufacturers refers to the diameter of the top rim of the pot or
pan. The diameter of the base (generally smaller) is more important.
- Where possible, use pans with vertically straight sides. If a pan has angular sides, induction also acts on the
sides of the pan. The sides of the pan
may discolour or the coating may
peel off.
20
- Use a lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.
- Select a smaller pan when cooking
small quantities. A smaller pan uses
less energy than a larger pan with
very little in it.
- Cook with as little water as possible.
- Once food has come to the boil or
the oil in the pan is hot enough for
frying, reduce the heat to a lower setting.
- Use a pressure cooker to reduce
cooking times.
Tips on saving energy

Extended set-
tings
(17 power
levels)
These settings should only be taken as a guide. The power of the induction coils will vary
depending on the size and material of the pan. For this reason, it is possible that the settings will need to be adjusted slightly to suit your pans. As you use the hob, you will get to
know which settings suit your pans best. When using new pans that you are not familiar
with, set the power level below the one specified.
22
Operation
How the hob is operated
The glass ceramic hob is equipped with
electronic sensor controls which react
to finger contact. For safety reasons, in
order to switch the hob on, the On/
Off sensor needs to be touched for a
little longer than the other sensors.
A tone sounds each time a sensor is
touched.
When the hob is turned off, only the
symbols for the On/Off and System
Lock/Safety Lock sensors are visible.
When you switch on the hob, all other
sensors light up. When you switch a
cooking zone on, the sensor lights up
in brightness level 2, and the through
sensors light up in brightness level1.
When you set a power level, the
sensor up to the set power level light up
in brightness level 2.
If the booster or keeping warm function
is set, the corresponding sensor lights
up in brightness level2.
Malfunction due to dirty and/or
covered sensor controls.
If the sensor controls are dirty or
covered this could cause them to fail
to react, to activate a function or
even to switch the appliance off
automatically (see “Safety features”,
“Safety switch-off”). Placing hot
pans on the sensor controls/indicators can damage the electronic unit
underneath.
Keep the sensor controls and indicators clean.
Do not place anything over the
sensor control or indicators.
Do not place hot pans over the
sensor controls or indicators.
23
Operation
Risk of fire with overheated food.

Residual heat indicator
If a cooking zone is hot, the residual
heat indicator and the sensor will light
up on the control scale after switching
the zone off.
The bars in the residual heat indicator
will go out one after another as the
cooking zones cool down. The last bar
and the sensor will go out at the same
time.
The residual heat indicators will flash if
there is a power cut during use or
while residual heat is still present or if
you have opened the programming
function while residual heat is still
present.

Operation
Booster
The cooking zones are equipped with a
Booster, TwinBooster or WaterBoost
depending on model (see “Guide to the
appliance – Hob”). You can use the
booster function for a maximum of two
cooking zones at the same time.
When activated, the power is boosted
for a maximum of 15 minutes so that
large quantities can be heated quickly,
e.g. when boiling water for cooking
pasta.
The booster function can only be used
on two cooking zones at the same time.
If the booster function is switched on
when
- no power level has been selected,
the cooking zone will revert automatically to level 9 at the end of the
booster time or if the booster function is switched off before this.
- a power level has been selected, the
cooking zone will revert automatically
to the power level selected at the end
of the booster time or if the booster
function is switched off before this.
Cooking zones are networked in pairs
to supply the power for the booster
function. When the booster function is
selected, a proportion of energy is
taken away from the linked cooking
zone and the following happens within
the pairs:
- Auto heat-up is deactivated
- the power level is reduced
- the linked cooking zone is switched
off.
27
Operation
During the booster time, the sensor
and all of the sensors on the control
scale light up at brightness level 2.

Operation
Keeping warm
This function is for keeping food warm
which has just been cooked and is still
hot. It is not for reheating food that
has gone cold.
The maximum duration for keeping food
warm is 2 hours.
- Only use pans for keeping food
warm. Cover the pan with a lid.
- Stir firm or viscous food (mashed
potatoes, stew) occasionally.
- Nutrients are lost when food is
cooked, and continue to diminish
when food is kept warm. The longer
food is kept warm, the greater the
loss of nutrients. Try to ensure that
food is kept warm for as short a time
as possible.
Switching the keep-warm setting on/
off
Touch the sensor for the cooking
zone you wish to use.

Safety features
Safety switch-off
Excessive operating time
The safety switch-off mechanism is
triggered automatically if a cooking
zone is heated for an unusually long
period of time. This time depends on
the power level selected. If it has been
exceeded, the cooking zone switches
off and the residual heat indicator appears. If you switch the cooking zone
on and off again, it is ready for operation again.
Safety switch-off if the sensors are
covered
Your hob will turn off automatically if
one or several of the sensors remain
covered for longer than 10 seconds, for
example, by finger contact, food boiling
over or by an object such as an oven
glove or tea towel. flashes in the timer
display and a buzzer sounds every 30
seconds for 10 minutes.
When you remove the objects or soiling, goes out, the buzzer stops, and
the hob is ready for use again.

Risk of burning due to hot cook-
ing zones.
The cooking zones will be hot after
use.
Switch the hob off.
Allow the cooking zones to cool
down before cleaning the hob.
Risk of damage due to moisture
ingress.
The steam from a steam cleaning ap-
pliance could reach live electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the hob.
All surfaces could be discoloured or
damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. All surfaces are
susceptible to scratching.
Remove all cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Never use abrasive sponges or
cleaning agents.
Clean the hob after every use.
Dry the hob thoroughly after cleaning
with water to avoid limescale residue.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of the
appliance, do not use:
- washing-up liquid
- cleaning agents containing soda, alkalines, ammonia, acids or chlorides
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- stain and rust removers
- abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
- solvent-based cleaning agents
- dishwasher cleaner
- oven sprays
- glass cleaning agents
- hard, abrasive brushes or sponges
(e.g. pot scourers) or sponges which
have been previously used and still
contain abrasive cleaning agents

- melamine eraser blocks
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the ceramic surface
Risk of damage by pointed ob-
jects.
The seal between the hob and the
worktop could suffer damage.
The seal between the ceramic surface and the frame could suffer damage.
Do not use pointed objects for cleaning.
Not all soiling and residues can be
removed using a solution of washing-up liquid. An invisible film can
develop that can lead to discolouration of the glass ceramic surface.
This discolouration cannot be removed.
Clean the ceramic surface regularly
with a proprietary ceramic glass
cleaning agent.
Remove any coarse soiling with a
damp cloth and more stubborn soiling with a shielded scraper blade
suitable for use on glass.
Then clean the ceramic glass surface
with the Miele ceramic and stainless
steel hob cleaner (see “optional accessories”) or with a proprietary
ceramic glass cleaner applied with
kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do not
apply the cleaner while the hob is still
hot, as this can result in marking.
Please follow the cleaning agent
manufacturer's instructions.
Residues can burn onto the hob the
next time it is used and cause damage
to the glass ceramic surface. Ensure
that all cleaning agent residues are removed.
Spots caused by limescale, water
and aluminium residues (spots with a
metallic appearance) can be removed
using Miele's ceramic and stainless
steel hob cleaner.
Risk of burning due to hot cook-
ing zones.
The cooking zones are hot during
use.
Wear oven gloves when removing
residues of sugar, plastic or aluminium foil from a hot ceramic surface with a shielded scraper blade.
Should any sugar, plastic or alu-
minium foil spill or fall onto the hot
ceramic surface while it is in use,
switch off the cooking zone.
Then carefully scrape off these
residues immediately whilst they are
still hot, using a scraper blade suitable for use on glass.
Afterwards, clean the ceramic surface
in its cooled state, as described
above.
Finally wipe the glass ceramic surface
with a damp cloth and polish with a
soft, dry cloth.

Problem solving guide
Many malfunctions and faults that can occur in daily operation can be easily
remedied. Time and money will be saved because a service call will not be
needed.
The following guide may help you to find the reason for a malfunction or a fault,
and to correct it.
ProblemCause and remedy
The hob or cooking
zones will not switch
on.
A smell and vapours are
given off when the new
appliance is being used.
Power levels 1 to 9
flash.
After the hob has been
switched on appears
in the timer display for a
few seconds.
There is no power to the hob.
Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. Con-
tact an electrician or Miele Service (for the minimum fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
Disconnect the appliance from the mains electri-
city supply for approx. 1 minute by
– tripping the relevant mains fuse or screwing the
fuse out completely, or
– switching off at the residual current device.
If, after resetting the trip switch in the mains fuse
box or the residual current current device, the appliance will still not turn on, contact a qualified
electrician or Miele Service.
The metal components have a protective coating.
When the appliance is used for the first time, this
causes a smell and possibly also vapour. The material from which the induction coils are made also gives
off a smell in the first few hours of operation. With
each subsequent use, the odour is reduced until it
disappears completely. The smell and any vapours
given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance and they are not hazardous to health.
There is no pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is
unsuitable.
Use a suitable pan (see “Pans”).
The system lock or safety lock is activated.
Deactivate the system lock or safety lock (see
“System lock / Safety lock”).

The veneer or laminate coatings of worktops (or adjacent kitchen
units) must be treated with 100°C heat-resistant adhesive which will
not dissolve or distort. Any backmoulds must be of heat-resistant
material.
The hob must not be installed over a fridge, fridge-freezer, freezer,
dishwasher, washing machine, washer-dryer or tumble dryer.
This hob must not be installed above ovens or cookers unless
these have a built-in cooling down fan.
After installation, ensure that nothing can come into contact with
the connection cable and that it is without hindrance.
The electrical cable may not come into contact with any moving
kitchen component (e.g. a drawer) or be subject to mechanical obstruction which could damage it.
Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.
All dimensions are given in mm.
49
Safety distances
Safety distance above the hob
A minimum safety distance must be
maintained between the appliance and
the cooker hood above it. See the
cooker hood manufacturer's operating
and installation instructions for details.
If the manufacturer's instructions are
not available for the cooker hood or if
any flammable objects (e.g. utensil rails,
wall units etc) are installed above the
hob a minimum safety distance of at
least 760mm must be maintained
between them and the appliance below.
When two or more appliances which
have different safety distances are
installed together below a cooker
hood, you should observe the
greatest safety distance.
50
Safety distances to the sides
and back of the hob
Ideally the hob should be installed with
plenty of space on either side. There
may be a wall at the rear or a tall unit or
wall on one side (right or left) (see illustrations).
Safety distances
Minimum distance between the back
of the worktop cut-out and the rear
edge of the worktop:
50mm
Minimum distance between the
worktop cut-out and a wall or tall unit to
the right of it:
50mm.
Minimum distance between the
worktop cut-out and a wall or tall unit to
the left of it:
50mm.
Not allowed
Highly recommended
Not recommended
Not recommended
51
Safety distances
Minimum safety distances underneath the hob
To ensure sufficient ventilation to the
hob, a certain gap must be left between
the underside of the hob and any oven,
interim shelf or drawer.
The minimum gap between the underside of the hob and
- the top of an oven is 15mm.
- the top of an interim shelf is 15mm.
- the base of a drawer is 75mm.
Interim shelf
It is not necessary to fit an interim shelf
underneath the hob but one may be fitted if you wish.
Leave a gap of 10mm at the back of
the shelf to accommodate the cable.
We recommend a gap at the front of the
shelf of 20mm to ensure good ventilation.
52
Safety distances
Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with
additional niche cladding
A minimum safety distance must be maintained between the worktop cut-out and
any niche cladding to protect it from heat damage.
If the niche cladding is made from a combustible material (e.g. wood) a minimum
safety distance of 50 mm must be maintained between the cut-out and the
cladding.
If the niche cladding is made from a non-combustible material (e.g. metal, natural
stone, ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance between the cut-out and the
cladding will be 50 mm less the thickness of the cladding.
Example: 15 mm niche cladding
50mm - 15mm = minimum safety distance of 35mm

Installation notes
Seal between the hob and the worktop
Do not use sealant between the hob
and the worktop. This could result in
damage to the hob or the worktop if
the hob ever needs to be removed
for servicing.
The sealing strip under the edge of
the top part of the appliance
provides a sufficient seal for the
worktop.
Tiled worktop
Grout lines and the hatched area underneath the hob frame must be
smooth and even. If they are not the
hob will not sit flush with the worktop
and the sealing strip underneath the
hob will not provide a good seal
between the hob and the worktop.
Sealing strip
Dismantling the hob for service purposes may damage the sealing strip
underneath the edge of the hob.
Always replace the sealing strip before reinstalling the hob.

Installation
Prepare the worktop
Create the worktop cut-out as shown
in the building-in diagram. Remember
to maintain the minimum safety distances (see “Safety distances”).
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid swelling caused by moisture. The sealant
must be temperature-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
The seal under the appliance ensures
that the hob will sit securely in the cutout without slipping. Any gap between
the appliance frame and worktop will
become smaller over time.
Connect the mains connection cable
to the appliance
Install the hob
Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this make sure that the
seal of the appliance sits flush with
the worktop on all sides. This is important to ensure an effective seal all
round.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone) on the hob.
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner radius (≤R4) can be carefully scribed to
suit.
Connect the hob to the mains.
Check that the hob works.
The mains connection cable must
only be connected by a suitably
qualified and competent person.
Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see “Electrical connection Wiring diagram”).
56
Flush-fitted hobs
Installation notes
A flush-fit hob is suitable only for installation in natural stone (granite,
marble), solid wood and tiled worktops. Certain hobs are suitable for
building into glass worktops – please
see advice under “Building-in dimensions”. When using a worktop made
from any other material, please check
first with the worktop manufacturer
that it is suitable for installing a flushfit hob.
The internal width of the base unit underneath the appliance must be at
least as wide as the inner worktop cutout (see “Building-in dimensions”), so
that the hob is easily accessible from
underneath after installation and the
bottom half of the casing can be removed for maintenance. If the underside of the hob is not freely accessible
after installation, any sealant used
must be removed to enable the hob to
be lifted out of the cut-out should this
be necessary.
The hob is secured inside the cut-out
with wooden battens. The battens must
be provided on site, and are not supplied with the appliance.
Sealing strip
Dismantling the hob for service purposes may damage the sealing strip
underneath the edge of the hob.
Always replace the sealing strip before reinstalling the hob.
