 Installation instructions

Important notes

Safety in use is only guaranteed if the technical installation of 

the hob has been carried out correctly and in accordance with 

the installation instructions. The installation technician shall be 

liable for any damage caused as a result of incorrect installation.

Only an authorised technician is able to connect the appliance. 

The guidelines set out by the local electricity provider must be 

observed.

This is a class I appliance and should only be used with an 

earthed connection.

Using this appliance without an earth connection or after it has 

been incorrectly installed may, under very rare circumstances, 

cause serious harm.

The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any malfunction 

or damage caused by incorrect electrical installation.

The appliance must be connected to a fixed installation and the 

means of disconnecting it from the fixed installation must be 

included according to the installation instructions.

The inlet hose must be positioned so that it does not touch any 

of the hot parts of the hob or oven.

Induction hobs may only be installed over ovens with the same 

brand of forced-air ventilation. Refrigerators, unventilated ovens, 

and washing machines may not be installed beneath the hob.

If the hob has been installed over a drawer, any metallic objects 

found in the drawer may reach high temperatures due to the 

recirculation of the air coming from the hob's ventilation. In this 

case, an intermediary support is recommended 

(Figure 2a)

.

Any change to the appliance's interior, including changing the 

power cable, must be performed by the Technical Assistance 

Service.

An unsuitable installation will invalidate the warranty.

Preparation of assembly units, figures 1/2/3/4

Worktop:

The worktop should be flat and horizontal. The cuts should be 

made in the kitchen unit before installing the appliance. 

Remove any shavings, as these can affect the operation of the 

electrical components. When the cutouts have been made, 

the unit's stability should be checked again.

■

Surfaces which have been cut should be sealed so that they 

are heat-resistant and so that they do not swell due to 

humidity.

■

The built-in kitchen units must withstand temperatures of up to 

90 ºC.

■

If the thickness of the worktop where the hob is installed is 

less than 30 mm., reinforce the worktop with a material 

resistant to temperature and water. Otherwise it won't be 

sufficiently stable.

Notes

■

The worktop where the hob is installed should be able to 

support a weight of approximately 60 kg. 

■

The hob levelling should only be checked after it is installed in 

the gap for the built-in unit.

The appliance can be mounted on the following heat and water 

resistant worktops:

■

Marble, natural stone worktops

■

Synthetic worktops

■

Solid wood worktops: only according to the manufacturer of 

the worktop (sealing of cutout edges)

■

Assembly with other types of worktops: only according to the 

manufacturer of the worktop

Note: 

All worktop cutout work must be carried out by a 

specialised service according to the assembly drawings. The 

cutout must be clean and precise, as the cut edge will be visible 

on the surface. Clean and degrease the cutout edges using a 

suitable cleaning product (check the silicone manufacturer's 

indications).

Ventilation, figure 2:

Ventilating the hob requires:

■

An opening on the upper part of the unit's rear wall 

(figure 2a)

.

■

A separation between the rear part of the unit and kitchen wall 

(figure 2b)

.

■

If the interior width of the unit is less than 780 mm., a cut must 

be made in the lateral walls 

(figure 2c)

.

Connection cable, figure 3:

Do not tie the connection cable:

■

If the hob is installed on a drawer or intermediate support, a 

minimum gap of 70 mm must be left between the drawer or 

support and the top of the worktop.

■

If installed on a fixed unit, leave a minimum gap of 100 mm 

between the unit and the top of the worktop.

Adhesive seal, figure 4:

Adhere the adhesive seal to the stepped rim of the worktop.

Installing the appliance, figures 5/6/7/8

Note: 

Wear protective gloves to fit the hob. The non-visible 

surfaces may have sharp edges.

Note: 

The appliance is too heavy. It is recommended that two 

persons insert it.

1.

Insert the appliance uniformly in the cutout. Press it down firmly 

into the cutout.

Note: 

The appliance must be firmly embedded in the cutout 

and should not move (e.g. when cleaning it). If the width of the 

cutout is at the upper tolerance limit, attach side strips to the 

cutout as required.

2.

Check that the hob is flush with the worktop. If the hob is not 

flush, install the anchoring devices supplied only in the points 

necessary and tighten them carefully, 

(figure 5)

.

Note: 

Do not use electric screwdrivers.

3.

Install the filter box 

(figure 6)

.

4.

Connect the appliance to the mains and check that it works 

correctly.

– See the rating plate for the voltage.

– Only connect the appliance in accordance with the 

connection diagram 

(Fig. 8)

.

4. Grey

5. Green-yellow

Note: 

Depending on the type of connection, the arrangement of 

the clamps supplied by the factory may need to be changed.

5.

Before sealing the joint (figure 7) you must test that the 

appliance works! 

Grout the perimeter separation using appropriate, heat 

resistant silicone ( e.g. Novasil

®

 S70, Ottoseal

®

 S70). Smooth 

the seal with a finishing product recommended by the 

manufacturer. Follow the silicone indications. Do not start the 

appliance until the silicone is completely dry (minimum 

24 hours, depending on the ambient temperature).

The appropriate silicones can be obtained through our 

Technical Assistance Service.

Caution!

The use of unsuitable silicone causes permanent colour 

changes to natural marble worktops.

Uninstalling the appliance

Disconnect the appliance from the mains. 

Remove the silicone seal from the edge of the hob with a 

suitable tool.

Remove the anchoring devices.

Push the hob upwards from below to remove it.

Caution!

Damage to the appliance! Do not try to remove the appliance by 

pulling it from above.
