Maximum cooktop width between two VL: 24" (60 cm).
Appliance can be snapped into the worktop from above. Additional fixing by clamps accessible from bottom up, clamping range 30-50 mm.
If combining several Vario appliances of the 400 series, a connection strip VA 420 must be placed between the appliances. Depending on the type of installation, the corresponding connection strip must be provided.
The bearing capacity and stability,
in the case of thin countertops in particular, must be supported using suitable substructures. Take into account the appliance weight and additional loads.
Additional instructions for flush mounting:
Flush installation is possible in countertops made of stone, synthetics or solid wood. Heat resistance and watertight sealing of the edges must be observed. For other materials, please consult with your countertop manufacturer.
The groove must be continuous and even, so that uniform placing of the appliance on the gasket is ensured. Do not use discontinuous lining.
The joint width may vary due to size tolerances of the combinations and of the countertop cut-out.
If installing several appliances in individual cut-outs allow for a division bar of inimum 1 ³¹⁄₃₂" (50 mm) between the individual cut-outs.
If operated next to gas appliances, the air deflector AA 414 010 is recommended to ensure maximum performance of the cooktop.
If installed next to VP 414, the flat duct must not be positioned underneath the VP 414.
60 Hz. Plan for a 6.6' connection cable between VL414 downdraft and AA 490 control knob.
