Instructions for the electrical connection
In order to safely connect the appliance to the electrical 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 accordance with the installation regulations.
- The manufacturer shall assume no liability for malfunctions or damage resulting from incorrect electrical 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 drawers or ovens with fan ventilation. Do not install refrigerators, 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 recommendations.
- Level, horizontal, stable.
- The worktop into which you are fitting the appliance 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 extractor hood.
Preparing the fitted units
-
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°.
→ Fig. 1 -
After making the cut-outs, remove any shavings.
-
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
sufficient supply of fresh air. Therefore, if required, adjust the units for
this purpose.
-
Maintain a minimum clearance between the rear of the unit and the kitchen wall.
→ Fig. 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 underside.
→ Fig. 4 -
If the inside of the unit is not wider than 880 mm, make cuts on the side panels.
→ Fig. 5 -
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, guarantee 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 70 mm.
→ Fig. 6
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 40 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 instructions for the oven.
→ Fig. 7
Installation on built-in units
- In order to guarantee good ventilation, the clear-ance between the surface of the worktop and the upper area of the unit must be 100 mm.
→ Fig. 8
Installing the support rails
▶ Install the support rails in the unit.
- Glue the support rails to the stone worktop. Use a melt adhesive that is suitable for bonding metal and stone and has a temperature resistance of at least 90 °C.
- Do not use silicone for sealing.
- If mounting rails have already been attached, remove these and attach new ones.
- Use the lower threaded holes for tiled work surfaces.
→ Fig. 9
Inserting the hob
-
Insert the hob in the cut-out.
→ Fig. 10 -
Seal the tile joints on tiled work surfaces with silicone rubber.
Note: Do not kink or trap the connection cable, and keep it away from sharp edges and hot parts.
Connecting the appliance
Requirement: Observe the connection data on the rating plate.
-
Only connect as shown in the circuit diagram:
