Safety instructions for installation
Risk of damage from incorrect connection.
Incorrect installation can cause damage to the hob.
The hob must only be installed by a qualified person.
Damage from falling objects.
Take care not to damage the hob when fitting wall units or a cooker hood above
it.
Fit the wall units and the cooker hood before the hob.
The room in which the hob is installed must conform to all relevant
local and national building regulations and safety regulations.
The veneer or laminate coatings of worktops (or adjacent kitchen
units) must be treated with 100°C heat-resistant adhesive which will
not dissolve or distort. Any backmoulds must be of heat-resistant
material.
The hob must not be installed over a fridge, fridge-freezer, freezer,
dishwasher, washing machine, washer-dryer or tumble dryer.
A gas hob must not be installed directly next to a deep fat fryer as
the gas flames could ignite the fat in the fryer. It is essential to
maintain a distance of at least 300mm between these two
appliances.
When installing the hob, make sure that the gas pipe and
electrical connection cable cannot come into contact with hot
appliance parts.
The electrical cable and any flexible gas connection pipes must be
installed in such a way so that they do not come into contact with
any moving kitchen parts (e.g. a drawer), and cannot become
trapped.
Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.

Safety distances
Safety distance above the hob
A minimum safety distance must be
maintained between the appliance and
the cooker hood above it. See the
cooker hood manufacturer's operating
and installation instructions for details.
If the manufacturer's instructions are
not available for the cooker hood or if
any flammable objects (e.g. utensil rails,
wall units etc) are installed above the
hob a minimum safety distance of at
least 760mm must be maintained
between them and the appliance below.
When two or more appliances which
have different safety distances are
installed together below a cooker
hood, you should observe the
greatest safety distance.

Safety distances to the sides and
back of the hob
Ideally the hob should be installed with
plenty of space on either side. There
may be a wall at the rear or a tall unit or
wall on one side (right or left) (see
illustrations).
Minimum distance between the back
of the worktop cut-out and the rear
edge of the worktop:
50mm
Minimum distance between the
worktop cut-out and a wall or tall unit to
the right of it:
150mm.
Minimum distance between the
worktop cut-out and a wall or tall unit to
the left of it:
150mm.

Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with additional
niche cladding
A minimum safety distance must be maintained between the worktop cut-out and
any niche cladding to protect it from heat damage.
If the niche cladding is made from a combustible material (e.g. wood) a minimum
safety distance of 50 mm must be maintained between the cut-out and the
cladding.
If the niche cladding is made from a non-combustible material (e.g. metal, natural
stone, ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance between the cut-out and the
cladding will be 50 mm less the thickness of the cladding.
Example: 15 mm niche cladding
50mm - 15mm = minimum safety distance of 35mm

Installation notes
Seal between the hob and the
worktop
Damage caused by incorrect
installation.
Using sealant under the hob could
result in damage to the hob and the
worktop if the hob ever needs to be
removed for servicing.
Do not use sealant between the hob
and the worktop.
The sealing strip under the edge of
the hob provides a sufficient seal for
the worktop.
Tiled worktops
Grout lines and the hatched area
underneath the hob frame must be
smooth and even. If they are not the
hob will not sit flush with the worktop
and the sealing strip underneath the
hob will not provide a good seal
between the hob and the worktop.

Installation
Preparing the worktop
Create the worktop cut-out as shown
in the hob diagram. Remember to
maintain the minimum safety
distances (see “Installation – Safety
distances”).
Seal any cut surfaces on wooden
worktops with a special varnish,
silicone sealant or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture ingress. The sealant must
be heat-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
The seal under the appliance ensures
that the hob will sit securely in the cut-
out without slipping. Any gap between
the appliance frame and worktop will
become smaller over time.
Installing the hob
Stick the supplied sealing strip under
the edge of the hob.
Feed the power cable for the hob
down through the worktop cut-out.
Place the hob loosely in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal of the appliance sits flush with
the worktop on all sides. This is
important to ensure an effective seal
all round.
If the seal does not sit flush with the
worktop in the corners, the corner
radius (≤R4) can be carefully cut to fit
using a jigsaw.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone) on the hob.
Connect the hob to the electricity
supply (see “Installation – Electrical
connection”).
Connect the hob to the gas supply
(see “Installation – Gas connection”).

Securing the hob
Secure the hob using the brackets
supplied.
Functional check
After installing the hob, ignite all
burners to check that they are
operating correctly:
- The flame must not go out on the
lowest setting, or when the control is
turned quickly from the highest to the
lowest setting.
- On the highest setting, the flame
must have a distinctive and visible
core.

Gas connection
According to the Gas Safety
(Registration of Gas Installers and
Gas Contractors) Regulations, any
gas installation work including the
installation of appliances and
connecting tubing, must be
undertaken by a registered gas
installer who is registered for that
appropriate class and is employed
by a registered gas contractor. The
installer is responsible for ensuring
that the appliance functions correctly
when installed.
Use approved gas tubing for
connection to appliances.
The gas connection must be
installed so that connection can be
made either from inside or outside
the kitchen unit. The isolating valve
must be easily accessible and visible
(by opening the kitchen door if
necessary).
Check with your local gas supplier
about the type of gas its calorific
value and compare this information
with the type of gas quoted on the
appliance's data plate.
This hob is not connected to an
exhaust flue.
When installing and connecting the
appliance please observe all relevant
installation instructions and ensure it
has adequate ventilation once
installed.
Connection to the gas supply must
be carried out in strict accordance
with current local regulations. Every
appliance should have its own easily
accessible isolating valve and test
point.
Any special local conditions relating
to gas installations as well as
building regulations must also be
observed.
Gas connections, pipes and
connection cables can suffer
damage if exposed to heat from the
hob.
After installation make sure that
neither the gas pipe nor the mains
cable can come into contact with hot
parts of the appliance and that the
gas pipe and connections on the hob
cannot come into contact with hot
gas exhaust.
Flexible gas pipes can be damaged
by incorrect routing.
Attach flexible gas pipes in such a
way so that they do not come into
contact with any moving kitchen
parts (e.g. a drawer) and are not
exposed to mechanical stress.
The hob must be set for local gas
conditions and the gas connection
must undergo a leakage test.
