Planning notes:

• Depending on the type of installation — surface-/ or flush-mounted, with or without cover — the specific location of the control knob positions may vary
• The adjacent drawing "Installation of the control knob" must be observed if the panel is more than 1" thick. There must be a recess at the rear for proper electronic knob installation
• 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
• 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 minimum 2" (50 mm) between the individual cut-outs
• Special nozzles can be ordered as spare parts
• Plan for an electrical connection (the appliance is not operable without power supply)
• Air intake from above
• No intermediate shelf required
• The rear panel must consist of a non-flammable material. Wall trims must be resistant to heat
• The minimum distance from the side of appliance edge to the wall or furnishing components must be at least 6"
• When used with VL 414 downdraft ventilation, the air deflector AA 414 is recommended to ensure maximum performance of the cooktop
• Appliance can be snapped into the countertop from above
