Instructions for the installer 11. INSTALLATION 11.1 Safety instructions for installing kitchen furniture • • • • • • • Veneers, adhesives or plastic coatings on adjacent furniture should be temperature-resistant (>75°C). If they are not sufficiently temperature-resistant, they may warp over time. When the appliance has been installed, it must be protected from accidental contact with the electric cables.
Instructions for the installer 11.4 Hob seal • • • • Before installing, check that the hob seal is attached properly. Ensure that no liquid gets between the frame of the hob and the work surface, or between the hob and the wall, as it could then fall onto appliances below. If the hob is installed into a work surface which is not flat, e.g. ones with ceramic or similar coverings (tiles, etc.), any seal on the hob must be removed and the cooking surface must be sealed using plastic sealant.
