Note: In case of installation of a hood above the cooking hob, please refer to the hood
instructions for the correct distance.
Important:
Installation of this product requires masonry and/or carpentry work. Therefore, it must
be carried out by a competent technician. The appliance may be installed on various
surfaces, such as brickwork, metal, solid wood and plastic laminated wood, provided
they are heat resistant materials (T 90°C).
Installation of traditional built-in model
Provide an opening in the worktop in accordance with the dimensions shown in the figure, leaving a
minimum clearance of 50 mm from the rear edge.
The appliance can be positioned against walls which are higher than the worktop, leaving a distance of
110 mm, as shown in figure 1, in order to avoid damages caused by excessive heat. Make sure there is a
minimum vertical clearance of 750 mm between the burner flames and an overhead shelf.
Apply the seal supplied along the outer perimeter of the cutout as shown in the figures below, ensuring it
adheres to the full length of the perimeter. Depending on the model of hob to be installed, refer to the
dimensions shown in the figure. Please remember that the front and rear sides must only touch the edge of
the cutout.
To fit the hob, use brackets A or B supplied with it (depending on the depth of the worktop). Trim excess
seal off edge C.
The dimensions shown in the figure below refer from the cutout to the inner side of the seal.
