Safety instructions for installation
ɘ Installation of the cooktop may only be performed by a qualified technician.
The cooktop may only be connected to the oven by a qualified electrician.
Install the upper cabinets and ventilation hood before installing the cooktop to
avoid damaging the appliance.
ʊThe veneer or laminate coatings of countertops must be treated
with 100 °C heat-resistant adhesive which will not dissolve or be‐
come deformed. Wall strips must also be heat-resistant.
ʊOnce the cooktop has been installed, the electrical cord must not
be subject to mechanical stress.
ʊMake sure that, once the cooktop is installed, it is not possible to
touch the underside of the appliance. In some cases, a front cover
panel and bottom cover panel may need to be installed (see "Bot‐
tom cover panel").
All dimensions are indicated in mm.

Safety clearances
Safety clearance above the
cooktop
For a ventilation hood positioned above
the cooktop, always use the clearance
specified by the hood manufacturer. If
no specifications are available from the
hood manufacturer, or if flammable ma‐
terials (e.g. wall shelf) are installed
above the cooktop, the clearance must
be at least 760 mm.
If there is more than one appliance
installed below the ventilation hood,
each with a different safety clear‐
ance, the largest clearance must be
used.
28
Safety clearances
Safety clearances to the sides
and back of the cooktop
Ideally, the cooktop should be installed
with plenty of space on either side.
There may be a wall at the rear or a tall
cabinet or wall on one side (right or left)
(see illustrations).
Ȧ Minimum distance between the
back of the countertop cut-out and the
rear edge of the countertop:
50 mm
Not permitted!
ȧ Minimum distance on the right side
between the countertop cut-out and the
closest adjacent piece of furniture (e.g.
tall cabinet) or a room wall:
50 mm
Ȩ Minimum distance on the left side
between the countertop cut-out and the
closest adjacent piece of furniture (e.g.
tall cabinet) or a room wall:
50 mm
Highly recommended!
Not recommended!

Safety clearances
Safety distance from the wall covering
If a wall covering is installed, a minimum safety distance must be maintained be‐
tween the countertop cut-out and the covering, since high temperatures can dam‐
age these materials.
If the covering is made of a flammable material (such as wood), the minimum dis‐
tance Ȫ between the countertop cut-out and the wall covering must be 50 mm.
For coverings made of non-flammable materials (such as metal, natural stone, ce‐
ramic tiles) the minimum safety distance Ȫ between the countertop cut-out and
the wall covering is equal to 50 mm minus the thickness of the covering.
For example: thickness of wall covering 15 mm
50 mm - 15 mm = minimum distance of 35 mm

Bottom cover panel
Measures must be taken to ensure that
it is not possible to touch the underside
of the installed cooktop.
For this reason, a front cover panel and
bottom cover panel must be installed if:
– The cooktop is wider than the oven
installed below it.
– The cooktop and the oven below it
are installed with an offset.
The distance from the top edge of the
countertop to the bottom cover panel
must be at least 55 mm.
An air gap of 10 mm must be main‐
tained between the bottom cover panel
and the rear wall.

Instructions for installation
Seal between the cooktop and
countertop
Do not use sealant between the
cooktop and the countertop. Doing
so could result in damage to the
cooktop or countertop if the cooktop
ever needs to be removed for servic‐
ing.
The sealing strip under the top edge
of the appliance provides an ade‐
quate seal with the countertop.
32
Tiled countertop
The grouting Ȧ and the shaded area
under the cooktop frame must be
smooth and flat so that the frame will sit
evenly on the countertop and so that
the sealing strip under the top edge of
the appliance can provide an adequate
seal with the countertop.

Installation
Preparing the countertop
ĺ Create the countertop cut-out as
shown in the cooktop diagram. Re‐
member to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see "Safety clearan‐
ces").
Wooden countertop
ĺ Seal any cut surfaces on the wooden
countertop with a special varnish, sili‐
cone rubber, or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture. The sealant must be tem‐
perature resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
get on countertop surface.
The sealing strip ensures that the
cooktop will sit securely in the cut-out
without slipping. Any gap between the
trim and countertop will become
smaller over time.
34
ĺ Position the spring clips Ȧ on the top
edge of the cut-out as shown in the
cooktop illustration.
ĺ Fasten the spring clips Ȧ using the
3.5 x 25 mm screws supplied with
the appliance.
Installation
Natural stone countertops
You will need heavy duty double-sided
adhesive tape (not included with the
cooktop) to fasten the spring clips.
Installing the cooktop
ĺ Feed the cooktop power cord down
through the countertop cut-out.
ĺ Connect the cooktop to the oven (see
"Connection to the oven").
ĺ Loosely position the cooktop in the
countertop cut-out.
ĺ Using both hands, press down on the
cooktop edges until the cooktop is
clearly in place. Make sure that the
seal under the cooktop sits flush with
the countertop on all sides. This is
important to ensure an effective seal.
ĺ Affix the adhesive tape Ȩ along the
top edge of the cut-out in the posi‐
tions shown in the cooktop illustra‐
tion.
ĺ Position the spring clips on the top
edge of the cut-out and press them
firmly into place.
Never seal the cooktop using addi‐
tional sealant (e.g. silicon).
If the seal does not sit flush with the
countertop in the corners, the corner
radius (Ǘ R4) can be carefully cut to fit
using a jigsaw.
ĺ Check that the cooktop works.
The cooktop can only be lifted out of
the cut-out with a special tool.
ĺ Apply silicone adhesive to the side
edges and bottom edge of the spring
clips.
35
Connecting the cooktop
ĺ Insert the plug casing on the cooktop
power cord into the plug connector
on the oven. Do not force the plug
casing into the connector.
The plug casing and plug connector
are designed so that only one connec‐
tion alignment is possible.
The protective ground wire is integra‐
ted in the plug casing.
36
ĺ Connect the EMC ground Ƴ, which
is attached to the bottom casing of
the cooktop (depending on the mod‐
el), to the cable lug on the oven.
Electrical connection
ɘ Risk of injury.
Connection
Installation, maintenance and repair
work by unqualified persons can

petent electrician in accordance with
current local and national safety reg‐
ulations.

nents are shielded and cannot be
accessed by users after installation.
The voltage, rated load and fuse rating
can be found on the oven data plate.
Please ensure that these match the
building's electrical supply.
Disconnecting devices
It must be possible to disconnect the
appliance from the power supply on all
poles using disconnecting devices.
When switched off, a contact distance
of at least 3 mm must be present. Dis‐
connecting devices include overcurrent
protection elements and protective cir‐
cuit breakers.
