IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION
Risk of damage caused by incorrect installation.
Incorrect installation can damage the cooktop.
The cooktop must only be installed by a qualified specialist.
Risk of electric shock from voltage.
Incorrect connection to the power supply may result in an electric shock.
The cooktop must be connected to the electrical supply by a qualified person
only.
Damage from falling objects.
Take care not to damage the cooktop when installing cabinetry or a ventilation
hood above it.
Install the cabinetry and ventilation hood before installing the cooktop.
Reaching over a hot cooktop to access the cabinets can result in
burns. You can reduce the risk of burns by installing a ventilation
hood that extends at least 4¾" (12cm) past the bottom of the cabi-
nets. Do not install any cabinets above the cooktop.
The countertop must be heat-resistant (up to 212°F / 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.
When installing the cooktop, make sure that the power cord can-
not come into contact with hot appliance parts.
Ensure that the power cord cannot be touched after the cooktop
has been installed.
After the installation of the cooktop, the electrical cord may not
come into contact with any moving kitchen parts (e.g. a drawer) or
be subject to mechanical stress.
Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.
