Instructions for the electrical connection
In order to safely connect the appliance to the elec-
trical system, observe the following instructions.
¡ Only an authorised expert or a specially trained
service technician may connect the appliance. The
person must be approved in accordance with the
local regulations of the country and the electricity
supply company.
¡ Connect the appliance to a fixed installation and
set up appropriate isolating switches in accord-
ance with the installation regulations.
¡ The manufacturer shall assume no liability for mal-
functions or damage resulting from incorrect elec-
trical wiring.
Connection type
¡ The appliance corresponds to protection class 1.
You should therefore only use the appliance with
a protective earth connection.
Information on fitted units
¡ You can only install the induction hob above draw-
ers or ovens with fan ventilation. Do not install re-
frigerators, dishwashers, non-ventilated ovens or
washing machines below the hob.
¡ Ensure that the fitted unit is heat-resistant up to at
least 90°C.
Worktop
Follow the worktop manufacturer's recommenda-
tions.
¡ Level, horizontal, stable.
¡ The worktop into which you are fitting the appli-
ance must be able to withstand loads of approx.
60kg.
¡ For thin worktops, use heat-resistant and moisture-
resistant reinforcement material.
¡ Only check the evenness of the hob after it has
been installed.
Extractor hood
¡ The clearance between the extractor hood and the
hob must correspond at least to the clearance
specified in the installation instructions for the ex-
tractor hood.
Preparing the fitted units
1. Mark the unit cut-out in accordance with the in-
stallation diagram.
‒ Ensure that the angle of the cut surface to the
worktop is 90°.

2. After making the cut-outs, remove any shavings.
3. Seal the cut surfaces with heat-resistant material.
Ventilation
To guarantee that the appliance works correctly, the
hob must be sufficiently ventilated. The ventilation in
the lower section of the appliance requires a suffi-
cient supply of fresh air. Therefore, if required, adjust
the units for this purpose.
1. Maintain a minimum clearance between the rear
of the unit and the kitchen wall.
→Fig.
2
2. Ensure that an opening at the top of the rear of
the unit is unobstructed.
→Fig.

3. If the clearance from the back wall of the unit is
less than 20mm, create an opening on the under-
side.
→Fig.

4. Do not hermetically seal the lower base.
Note:If the appliance is installed in an island unit or
in another location that is not described here, guar-
antee that the hob is ventilated appropriately.
Installation above a drawer
¡ In order to guarantee good ventilation, the clear-
ance between the surface of the worktop and the
upper area of the drawer must be 65mm.
→Fig.
5
Installation above an oven
¡ To ensure good ventilation, the clearance between
the top of the worktop and the surface of the oven
front must be 30mm and the minimum clearance
between the oven and hob must be 5mm.
¡ If the clearance between the hob and the oven
needs to be increased, refer to the installation in-
structions for the oven.
→Fig.
