SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

•Fit the wall units and extractor hood before fitting the Tepan to avoid damaging the surface.

•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.

•This appliance may only be used in mobile installations such as ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk

assessment has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.

•Connection should be made via a suitable isolator or a double pole fused spur connection unit which

complies with current national and local safety regulations, and the on/off switch should be easily

accessible after the appliance has been built in. See “Electrical connection - Built-in Tepan” for more

details.

•The appliance must not be built in over a fridge, fridge-freezer, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine or

tumble dryer.

•After installation, ensure that the connection cable cannot come into contact with the underside of the

appliance. Make sure that there is no mechanical obstruction, such as adrawer, which could damage it.

•Observe carefully the safety distances given on the following pages.

•Do not use any sealant except where expressly instructed to do so. The seal underneath the appliance

provides a sufficient seal for the worktop (see “General installation tips”).

All dimensions in this instruction booklet are given in mm.

Safety distance above the Tepan

A minimum safety distance must be maintained between the

Tepan plate and the cooker hood above it. See the cooker

hood manufacturer’s operating and installation instructions for

details. If the

manufactrer’s instructions are not available for the cooker

hood, a minimum safety distance of at least 760 mm must be

maintained. For any flammable objects, e.g. utensil rails, wall

units etc. a minimum distance of at least 760 mm must be

maintained between them and the appliance below.

When two or more appliances are installed together below

a cooker hood, e.g. a Tepan and a gas hob combiset, which

have different safety distances given in the installation

instructions, you should select the greater distance of the two
