Safety distances

Safety distances to the sides
and back of the appliance
The minimum distance shown below
must be maintained between the back
edge of the cooktop and a tall unit or
wall.
Ideally the cooktop 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),
taking into account the distances
below. On the other side, however, no
tall unit or wall should stand closer than
300mm to the edge of the cooktop.
Before installing the cooktop, check
that the below clearance requirements
are met.
Minimum horizontal distance from the
back edge of the cooktop to a
combustible surface:
50mm.
Minimum distance on the right side
between the worktop cut-out and the
closest adjacent piece of furniture (e.g.
tall unit) or a room wall:
50 mm KM6522/6527
70 mm KM6520/6521
Minimum horizontal distance from the
left edge of the cooktop to a vertical
surface:
50 mm KM6520/6521/6522
70 mm KM 6527
Interim shelf
It is not necessary to fit an interim shelf
underneath the cooktop but one may
be fitted if you wish.
If an interim shelf is fitted under the
cooktop, there must be a minimum gap
of 110mm between the top of the
worktop and the top of the shelf.
Leave a gap of 10mm at the back of
the shelf to accommodate the cable. If
the cooktop has an external mains
connection box, the minimum gap is
30mm.
