Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check
the hob for visible signs of damage.
Reliable and safe operation of this hob can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The electrical safety of this hob can only be guaranteed when cor-
rectly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is
met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a
qualified electrician.
To avoid the risk of damage to the hob, make sure that the con-
nection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the
mains electricity supply before connecting it to the mains.
Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Do not connect the hob to the mains electrical supply by a multi-
socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not
guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, this hob may only be used after it has been
built in.
This hob must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).
Never open the casing of the hob.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
While the hob is under guarantee, repairs should only be under-
taken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the guar-
antee is invalidated.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
The hob is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote control system.
The hob must be connected to the electricity supply by a qualified
electrician (see "Electrical connection").
If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a suit-
ably qualified electrician with a special connection cable of type H
05 VV-F (pvc insulated). See "Electrical connection".
The hob must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply
during installation, maintenance and repair work. Ensure that power
is not supplied to the appliance until after it has been installed or un-
til any maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
Danger of electric shock.
Do not use the hob if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is cracked,
chipped or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately, discon-
nect it from the mains electricity supply and contact Miele.
If the hob is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door), ensure
that the door is never closed whilst the hob is in use. Heat and mois-
ture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause sub-
sequent damage to the hob, the housing unit and the floor. Do not
close the door until the residual heat indicators have gone out.
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Correct use
The hob gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while after be-
ing switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat
indicators go out.
Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the hob unat-
tended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite do not attempt
to put the flames out with water.
Disconnect the hob from the mains and use a suitable fire blanket,
saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do
not flambé under a cooker hood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances
in a drawer under the hob. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
Do not heat an empty pan.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the hob, as pressure can build up in the container, causing it to
explode.
Do not cover the hob, e.g. with a hob cover, a cloth or protective
foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the hob is
switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by mis-
take, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of any
metal items left on the hob heating up, with the danger of burning.
Depending on the material, other items left on the hob could also
melt or catch fire. Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic sur-
face and be difficult to dislodge. Do not use the appliance as a rest-
ing place. Switch the cooking zones off after use.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
You could burn yourself on the hot hob. Protect your hands with
heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot pots and
pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to trans-
fer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender,
near the hob, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot
come into contact with the hot hob. The insulation on the cable
could become damaged.
Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can
cause scratches if they get under pan bases. Make sure that the
ceramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.
Even a light object can cause damage in certain circumstances.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.
Placing hot pans on the sensors and indicators could damage the
electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the sensors or in-
dicators.
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the cooking zones when they are hot, as they can
damage the ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should oc-
cur, switch off the appliance and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or
aluminium residues whilst still hot, using a shielded scraper blade.
Wear oven gloves. Allow the cooking zones to cool down and clean
them with a suitable ceramic hob cleaning agent.
Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do
not leave the hob unattended whilst it is being used.
Only use pots and pans with smooth bases. Rough bases will
scratch the ceramic glass.
Lift pans into position on the hob. Sliding them into place can
cause scuffs and scratches.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Induction heating works extremely quickly and so the base of the
pan could heat up to the temperature at which oil or fat self-ignites
within a very short time. Do not leave the hob unattended whilst it is
being used.
Heat oil or fat for a maximum of one minute. Do not use the
Booster function to heat oil or fat.
For people fitted with a heart pacemaker: Please note that the
area immediately surrounding the hob is electromagnetically
charged. It is very unlikely to affect a pacemaker. However, if in any
doubt, consult the manufacturer of the pacemaker or your doctor.
To prevent damage to items which are susceptible to electromag-
netic fields, e.g. credit cards, digital storage devices, pocket calcu-
lators, etc, do not leave them in the immediate vicinity of the hob.
Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the hob can become hot if
the appliance is used intensively for a long time. Do not store any
metal items or utensils in a drawer under the hob.
This hob is fitted with a cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted directly
underneath the hob, ensure that there is sufficient space between
the drawer and its contents and the underside of the appliance in or-
der to ensure sufficient ventilation of the hob. Do not store pointed or
small items or paper in the drawer. They could get in through the
ventilation slots or be sucked into the housing by the fan and dam-
age the fan or impair cooling.
Do not use two pans on a cooking zone, extended zone or Power-
Flex zone at the same time.
If the pan only partially covers the cooking zone, the handle could
become very hot.
Ensure that you always place the pan in the middle of the cooking
zone.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this hob.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir-
cuit.
If the hob is built in over a pyrolitic oven, the hob should not be
used whilst the pyrolitic process is being carried out, as this could
trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the hob (see relev-
ant section).
Caring for the environment
14
Disposal of the packing mater-
ial
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufactur-
ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances of-
ten contain valuable materials. They
also contain materials which, if handled
or disposed of incorrectly, could be po-
tentially hazardous to human health and
to the environment. They are, however,
essential for the correct functioning of
your appliance. Please do not therefore
dispose of it with your household
waste.
Please dispose of it at your local com-
munity waste collection / recycling
centre or contact your Dealer for ad-
vice.
Ensure that it presents no danger to
children while being stored for disposal.

Using for the first time
23
Please stick the extra data plate for
the appliance supplied with this doc-
umentation in the space provided in
the "After sales service, data plate,
guarantee" section of this booklet.
Remove any protective wrapping and
stickers.
Cleaning the hob for the first
time
Before using for the first time, clean
the hob with a damp cloth only and
then wipe dry.
Switching on the hob for the
first time
The metal components have a protect-
ive coating which may give off a slight
smell when heated up for the first time.
The induction coils may also give off a
slight smell for the first few hours of op-
eration. This smell will be less notice-
able with each subsequent use before
dissipating completely.
The smell and any vapours given off do
not indicate a faulty connection or ap-
pliance and they are not hazardous to
health.
Please note that the heating up time
on induction hobs is very much
shorter than on conventional hobs.
Induction
24
The induction principle
An induction coil is located under each
cooking zone. When a cooking zone is
switched on, this coil creates a mag-
netic field which impacts directly on the
base of the pan and heats it up. The
cooking zone itself is heated up indir-
ectly by the heat given off by the pan.
An induction cooking zone only works
when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on
it (see "Pans"). The induction cooking
zone automatically recognises the size
of the pan.
The set power level flashes in the nu-
merical keybank for the cooking zone
– if the zone has been switched on
without a pan in place, or if the pan is
unsuitable (non-magnetic base),
– if the diameter of the base of the pan
is too small,
– if the pan is taken off the cooking
zone when it is switched on.
If a suitable pan is placed on the cook-
ing zone within 3 minutes, the flashing
power level will go out and you can
continue as normal.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed
on the cooking zone, the cooking zone
will switch off automatically after 3
minutes.
When the appliance is switched
on either deliberately or by mistake,
or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of any metal
items placed on the hob (e.g. cutlery)
heating up.
Danger of burning.
Do not use the hob as a resting
place for items. Switch the cooking
zones off after use with the appropri-
ate sensor.
Induction
25
Noises
When using an induction cooking zone,
the following noises can occur in the
pan, depending on what it is made of
and how it has been constructed.
On the higher power settings, it might
buzz. This will decrease or cease alto-
gether when the power setting is re-
duced.
If the pan base is made of layers of dif-
ferent materials (e.g. in a sandwiched
base), it might emit a cracking sound.
Whistling might occur if linked zones
(see "Booster") are being used at the
same time, and the pans also have
bases made of layers of different mater-
ials.
You might hear a clicking sound from
the electronic switches, especially on
lower power settings.
You might hear a whirring sound when
the cooling fan switches on. It switches
on to protect the electronics when the
hob is being used intensively. The fan
may continue to run after the appliance
has been switched off.
Induction
26
Pans
The following pan types are suitable:
– stainless steel with a magnetic base,
– enamelled steel,
– cast iron.
The following pan types are not suit-
able:
– stainless steel pans without a mag-
netic base,
– aluminium and copper pans,
– glass, ceramic or earthenware pots
and pans.
To test whether a pot or pan is suitable
for use on an induction hob, hold a
magnet to the base of the pan. If the
magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
If an unsuitable pan is used, the set
power level will flash in the numerical
keybank for the cooking zone.
The composition of the pan base can
affect the evenness of the cooking res-
ults (e.g. when making pancakes).
– To make optimum use of the cooking
zones, choose pans with a suitable
base diameter (see "Cooking zones").
If the pan is too small it will not be re-
cognised and the set power level will
flash in the numerical keybank for the
cooking zone.
– Only use pots and pans with smooth
bases. Rough bases will scratch the
ceramic glass.
– Lift pans into position on the hob.
Sliding them into place can cause
scuffs and scratches.
– Often the maximum diameter quoted
by manufacturers refers to the dia-
meter of the top rim of the pot or
pan. The diameter of the base (gener-
ally smaller) is the more important
one.
Tips on saving energy
27
– Use a lid whenever possible to min-
imise heat loss.
– Select a smaller pan when cooking
small quantities. A smaller pan uses
less energy than a larger pan with
very little in it.
– Cook with as little water as possible.
– Once food has come to the boil or
the oil in the pan is hot enough for
frying, reduce the heat to a lower set-
ting.
– Use a pressure cooker to reduce
cooking times.
Setting range
28
The hob is programmed with 9 power levels at the factory. If you wish to fine-tune
a setting, you can extend the power setting range to 17 power levels (see "Pro-
gramming").

These settings should only be taken as a guide. The power of the induction coils will vary
depending on the size and material of the pan. For this reason, it is possible that the set-
tings will need to be adjusted slightly to suit your pans. As you use the hob, you will get to
know which settings suit your pans best. When using new pans that you are not familiar
with, set the power level below the one specified. Please refer to "TempControl" for the set-
tings for frying using TempControl.
Operation
29
How the hob is operated
This glass ceramic hob is equipped with
electronic sensor controls which react
to finger contact. For safety reasons, in
order to switch the hob on, the On/
Off sensor needs to be touched for a
little longer than the other sensors.
A tone sounds each time a sensor is
touched.
Only the printed On/Off sensor is
visible when the hob is switched off.
More sensors light up when the hob is
switched on.
Malfunction due to dirty and/or
covered sensors
If the sensors are dirty or covered
this could cause them to fail to react,
to activate a function or even to
switch the hob off automatically (see
"Safety switch-off"). Placing hot
pans on the sensors/indicators can
damage the electronic unit under-
neath.
Keep the sensors and indicators
clean and do not place anything on
top of them. Do not place hot pans
on them.
Operation
30
Fire hazard.
Do not leave the hob unattended
whilst it is being used.
Please note that the heating up time
on induction hobs is very much
shorter than on conventional hobs.
Switching on the hob
Touch the sensor.
More sensors will light up. If no further
entry is made, the hob will switch itself
off after a few seconds for safety reas-
ons.
Setting the power level
Permanent pan recognition is activ-
ated as standard (see "Programming").
When the hob is switched on and you
place a pan on one of the cooking
zones, all the sensors in the numerical
keybank light up.
Place a pan on the cooking zone you
want to use.
Touch the appropriate number sensor
for the power level you want.
Switching off
To switch a cooking zone off, touch
the sensor on the appropriate key-
bank.
To switch off the hob and all the
cooking zones, touch the sensor.
Residual heat indicator
If the cooking zone is still hot, the resid-
ual heat indicator will light up after the
zone has been switched off. Depending
on the temperature, a dot will appear
above power levels 1, 2 and 3.
The dots of the residual heat indicator
will go out one after another as the
cooking zone cools down. The last dot
only goes out when the cooking zone is
safe to touch.
Danger of burning. Do not touch
the cooking zones whilst the residual
heat indicators are lit up.
Operation
31
TempControl
TempControl monitors and controls the
temperature during frying:
– the fat cannot overheat,
– power levels do not need to be ad-
justed manually,
– it is not necessary to turn the food
being fried frequently.
Depending on the model of hob, the
sensor is visible in the middle of the
cooking zone.
There are three frying levels and a sim-
mer setting.
When the pre-set temperature for the
frying level is reached, the simmer set-
ting sensor will appear. This function
is for reducing sauces. It is activated by
touching the sensor.
TempControl is not suitable for deep-
frying or boiling.
Use this function for frying only.
Notes on use
– Make sure that the ceramic surface is
kept clean, particularly in the area of
the sensor in the middle of the cook-
ing zone.
– Use pans which distribute heat
evenly, e.g. pans with a sandwich
base.
– For frying with butter, use frying
level only.
– Do not place the food in the pan until
the pre-set temperature has been
reached.
– You can switch from one frying level
to another.
– TempControl will deactivate if you
switch from a frying level to a power
level.
– You can carry out several frying pro-
cesses one after the other. The cook-
ing zone does not need to cool
down.
– So that simmering takes place reli-
ably, at least 250ml of liquid which is
not too thick needs to be added.
– You can switch from the simmer set-
ting back to a frying level.
Operation
32
Activating TempControl
Place a pan on the cooking zone and
add frying fat/oil if necessary.
Touch the sensor for the frying level
you want to use( ,, ).
The sensor for the frying level selected
will start to pulsate.
Once the pre-set temperature for the
frying level selected has been
reached, a tone will sound and the
sensor will light up constantly.
The simmer setting sensor will ap-
pear.
Place the food in the frying pan.

The PowerFlex cooking zones combine
automatically to form a PowerFlex
cooking area when you place a suffi-
ciently large pot or pan on them (see
"Guide to the appliance - Hob"). Set-
tings for the linked cooking area are
controlled by the front or left PowerFlex
zone (depending on model). The Power-
Flex cooking area can also be switched

Operation
35
Booster
The cooking zones are equipped with a
TwinBooster. You can use the booster
function for a maximum of two cooking
zones at the same time.
When activated, the power is boosted
for a maximum of 15 minutes so that
large quantities can be heated quickly,
e.g. when boiling water for cooking
pasta.
The booster function can only be used
on two cooking zones at the same time.
If the booster function is switched on
when
– no power level has been selected,
the cooking zone will revert automat-
ically to level 9 at the end of the
booster time or if the booster func-
tion is switched off before this.
– a power level has been selected, the
cooking zone will revert automatically
to the power level selected at the end
of the booster time or if the booster
function is switched off before this.
Cooking zones are networked in pairs
to supply the power for the booster
function. When the booster function is
selected, a proportion of energy is
taken away from the linked cooking
zone and the following happens within
the pairs:
– Auto heat-up is deactivated
– the power level is reduced
– the linked cooking zone is switched
off.

selected, the cooking zone will remain
switched on for a maximum of 2 hours.
– Keep food warm in the pan it was
cooked in and cover with a lid.
– You do not have to stir food while it is
being kept warm.
– Nutrients are lost when food is
cooked, and continue to diminish
when food is kept warm. The longer
food is kept warm for, the greater the
loss of nutrients. Try to ensure that
food is kept warm for as short a time
as possible.
To switch the Keeping warm setting
on/off

Cleaning and care
51
Danger of burning.
The cooking zones must be switched
off. The hob must have cooled down.
Danger of injury.
The steam from a steam cleaning ap-
pliance could reach electrical com-
ponents and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the hob.
The use of unsuitable cleaning
agents can cause the surfaces to
discolour or alter.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching.
Remove any cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Clean the entire hob after each use. Al-
low it to cool down before cleaning. Dry
the hob after using water to clean it.
This helps prevents limescale deposits.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of your
appliance, do not use:
– washing-up liquid,
– cleaning agents containing soda, al-
kalines, ammonia, acids or chlorides,
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents,
– stain or rust removers,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners,
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– grill and oven cleaners,
– glass cleaning agents,
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, or sponges which
have been previously used with ab-
rasive cleaning agents,
– melamine eraser blocks.
Cleaning and care
52
Do not clean the area between the
glass-ceramic surface and the frame
or the frame and the worktop with
sharp, pointed objects.
This could damage to the seals.
Do not use washing-up liquid to
clean the appliance as washing-up li-
quid will not remove all soiling and
deposits.
It will form an invisible coating which
will cause permanent discolouration
of the ceramic surface.
Clean the hob regularly with a suit-
able ceramic hob cleaning agent.
Wipe all coarse soiling off using a damp
cloth. Stubborn soiling may need to be
removed with a shielded scraper blade.
Then clean the hob with Miele ceramic
and stainless steel hob cleaner (see
"Optional accessories") or a suitable
proprietary ceramic hob cleaning agent
applied with kitchen paper or a clean
cloth. Do not apply cleaner whilst the
hob is still hot, as this could result in
marking. Please follow the manufac-
turer's instructions.
Finally wipe the hob with a damp cloth,
then dry with a soft, dry cloth. Residues
can burn onto the appliance the next
time it is used and cause damage to the
ceramic surface. Ensure that all clean-
ing agent residues are removed.
Spots caused by limescale, water and
aluminium residues (spots with a metal-
lic appearance) can be removed using
Miele's ceramic and stainless steel hob
cleaner.
Danger of burning.
Protect your hands with oven gloves
before using a shielded scraper
blade to remove sugar, plastic or alu-
minium residues from the hot hob.
Should any sugar, plastic or alu-
minium foil spill or fall onto a hot cook-
ing zone while it is in use, first switch off
the appliance. Then carefully scrape off
all the sugar, plastic or aluminium
residues from the hob immediately
whilst they are still hot, using a shielded
scraper blade. Allow the appliance to
cool down, and then clean as described
above.
Problem solving guide
53
With the aid of the following guide, minor problems can be easily corrected
without contacting Miele.
If having followed the suggestions below, you still cannot resolve the problem,
please contact Miele (see end of this booklet for contact details).
Danger of injury. Installation, maintenance and repairs to electrical appli-
ances must only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in
strict accordance with current local and national safety regulations.
Do not open the casing of the appliance.
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and Miele
cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
Problem Cause and remedy
The hob or cooking
zones cannot be
switched on.
There is no power to the hob.
Check if the mains fuse has tripped. If it has, con-
tact a qualified electrician or Miele (minimum fuse
rating - see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity sup-
ply for approx. 1 minute. To do this:
– switch off at the isolator, or
– disconnect the mains fuse.
If, after resetting the trip switch in the mains fuse
box and switching the appliance back on, the ap-
pliance will still not heat up, contact a qualified
electrician or Miele.
A smell and vapours are
given off when the new
appliance is being used.
The metal components have a protective coating.
When the appliance is used for the first time, this
causes a smell and possibly also vapour. The material
from which the induction coils are made also gives off
a smell in the first few hours of operation. This smell
will be less noticeable with each subsequent use be-
fore dissipating completely. The smell and any vapour
given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appli-
ance and they are not hazardous to health.
The power level selec-
ted is flashing.
There is no pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is un-
suitable.
Use a suitable pan (see "Pans").

Safety instructions for installation
58
The appliance must only be installed and connected to the electricity supply
by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Fit the wall units and cooker hood before fitting the hob to avoid damaging the
hob.
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.
This hob must not be installed above ovens or cookers unless
these have a built-in cooling down fan.
After installation, ensure that nothing can come into contact with
the connection cable and that it is without hindrance.
The electrical cable may not come into contact with any moving
kitchen component (e.g. a drawer) or be subject to mechanical ob-
struction which could damage it.
Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.
All dimensions are given in mm.
Safety distances
59
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
60
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 illus-
trations).
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:
50mm.
Minimum distance between the
worktop cut-out and a wall or tall unit to
the left of it:
50mm.
Not allowed
Recommended

Not recommended
Safety distances
61
Minimum safety distances un-
derneath the hob
To ensure sufficient ventilation to the
hob, a certain gap must be left between
the underside of the hob and any oven,
interim shelf or drawer.
The minimum gap between the under-
side of the hob and
– the top of an oven is 15mm.
– the top of an interim shelf is 15mm.
– the base of a drawer is 75mm.
Interim shelf
It is not necessary to fit an interim shelf
underneath the hob but one may be fit-
ted if you wish.
Leave a gap of 10mm at the back of
the shelf to accommodate the cable.
We recommend a gap at the front of the
shelf of 20mm to ensure good ventila-
tion.
Safety distances
62
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 work-
top
Do not use sealant between the hob
and the worktop. This could result in
damage to the hob or the worktop if
the hob ever needs to be removed
for servicing.
The sealing strip under the edge of
the top part of the appliance
provides a sufficient seal for the
worktop.
Tiled worktop
Grout lines and the hatched area un-
derneath 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
Make the worktop cut-out as shown
in the building-in diagram. Observe
the safety distances (see "Safety dis-
tances").
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
sealant to avoid swelling caused by
moisture. The sealant must be heat-
resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
The seal underneath the hob will hold
it securely in the cut-out. Any gap
between the frame and worktop will
reduce with time.
Connecting the mains connection
cable to the appliance
The mains connection cable must
only be connected by a suitably
qualified and competent person.
Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see "Electrical connection -
Wiring diagram").
Installing the hob
Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal under the hob sits flush with the
worktop on all sides. This is import-
ant to ensure an effective seal all
round.
Do not use sealant (e.g. silicone).
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner ra-
dius (≤R4) can be carefully scribed to
suit.
Connect the hob to the mains.
Check that the hob works.
Flush-fitted hobs
68
Installation notes
Flush fit hobs are only suitable for in-
stallation in natural stone (granite,
marble), tiled or solid wood worktops.
Certain models are suitable for build-
ing into glass worktops - please see
advice under "Building-in dimen-
sions". When using a worktop made
from any other material, please check
first with the worktop manufacturer
that it is suitable for installing a flush
fit hob.
The internal width of the base unit
must be at least as wide as the in-
ternal cut-out width for the hob (see
"Building-in dimensions"). This is to
ensure that the casing can be easily
removed for maintenance. If the un-
derside of the hob is not freely ac-
cessible after installation, any sealant
used to plug the gaps around the ap-
pliance must be removed to enable
the hob to be lifted out of the cut-out
should this be necessary.
The hob can be installed
– in a suitable cut-out in a natural stone
worktop.
– in a suitable cut-out in a tiled or solid
wood worktop or a glass worktop
with a wooden support frame. The
frame must be provided on site, and
is not supplied with the appliance.
