en-CA
The appliance must be installed by
a qualified professional and
connected to the electric power
supply by a qualified electrician.
The cabinet and the hood above the
cooktop must be installed before the
cooktop to avoid damaging it.
~The countertop must be
heat-resistant (up to 100°C), so that it
does not become deformed or the
veneer detached.
The wall strips must be heat-resistant
as well.
~The cooktop must not be installed
above refrigerators/freezers,
dishwashers or washer/dryers.
~This cooktop must not be installed
above a stove or oven unless they have
a built-in cooling fan.
~Ensure that the electrical supply
cable for the cooktop cannot touch the
floor panel after installation nor be
subject to any mechanical strain.
~Be sure to observe the safety
clearances listed on the following
pages.
All measurements are given in mm.
Safety instructions for installation

Clearance above the cooktop
For an exhaust hood above the
cooktop, always use the clearance
specified by the hood manufacturer.
If there are no specifications from the
hood manufacturer or if flammable
materials (e.g. a utensil rail) are
installed above the cooktop, the
clearance must be at least 760 mm.
If there is more than one appliance
installed below the exhaust hood,
each with a different safety
clearance, the largest clearance
must be used.

Minimum clearance underneath the
cooktop
To ensure proper ventilation of the
cooktop, a minimum clearance is
required between the appliance and an
oven, protective base, or drawer.
The minimum clearance from the
bottom of the cooktop to
–the top of the oven must be 15 mm.
–the top of the protective base must
be 15 mm.
–bottom of the drawer must be 75
mm.
Protective base
Installation of a protective base under
the cooktop is allowed but not required.
A gap of 10 mm at the back is required
for the power supply cable.
For better cooling of the cooktop, we
recommend a gap of 20 mm at the
front.
Safety instructions for installation
63
Safety clearance to a wall covering
A safety clearance must be maintained between the countertop cut-out and any
wall covering to protect it from heat damage.
If the covering is made of a combustible material (e.g. wood), a safety clearance
eof 50 mm must be maintained between the cut-out and the covering.
If the covering is made of a non-combustible material (e.g. metal, natural stone,
ceramic tiles), a minimum safety clearance eof 50 mm less the thickness of the
covering must be maintained between the cut-out and the covering.
Example: 15 mm wall covering
50 mm - 15 mm = 35 mm minimum clearance

Cooktops with frame or
bevelled edges
Seal between cooktop and
countertop
The sealing strip under the edge of the
upper part of the cooktop provides an
adequate seal against the countertop.
The cooktop must not be sealed with
joint sealant (e.g. silicone).
Cooktop and countertop could get
damaged if the cooktop needs to be
removed.
Tiled countertop
The grouting aand the hatched area
below the cooktop frame must be
smooth and flat, so that the frame will
be level and the sealing strip under the
edge of the upper part of the cooktop
can provide an adequate seal against
the countertop.

Preparing the countertop
^For the countertop cut-out use the
dimensions given in the illustration.
Observe the safety clearances (see
Safety instructions for installation).
^Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Ensure that the sealant does not get
on the top surface of the countertop.
This cooktop has a seal underneath
to keep it securely in position. Spring
clips are not required.
The gap between the frame and the
countertop will get smaller over time.
^Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see Electrical connection).
Inserting the cooktop
^Feed the power supply cable down
through the countertop cut-out.
^Center the cooktop in the cut-out.
Make sure that the seal under the
cooktop sits flush with the countertop
on all sides. This is important to
ensure an effective seal.
NEVER apply an additional sealant
such as silicone!
If the seal at the corners does not lie
flush on the worktop, the corner radii
ßR4 should be re-worked with a
jigsaw.
^Connect the cooktop to the electrical
power supply.
^Check that the cooktop is working
properly.
