Deformations due to improper fastening could alter the characteristics of the hob and compromise its performance. Installation • This hob can be built into a worktop simply by cutting out the corresponding slot. €¢ The worktop must be made with a material designed to withstand a temperature of approximately 100°C. €¢ The hob must be positioned at a minimum distance of 40 mm from the back wall and 600 mm from any other vertical surfaces, in order to allow adequate ventilation and to prevent the surfaces around the appliance from overheating. The fastening springs are fastened by screws (see diagram). It is vital that these screws be kept accessible at all times. Insert the hob into the cut-out slot, applying pressure all along the perimeter of the hob frame so that the latter adheres fully to the worktop.
