Refer to the table on page XX for the matching remote fan units for air recirculation or air extraction mode.

Secure the control unit to the side panel of the cabinet, not to the base of the cabinet or the kitchen floor.

For each VL one remote fan unit is recommended.

Maximum cooktop width between two VL: 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 worktops in particular, must be supported using suitable substructures. Take into account the appliance weight and additional loads.

Additional instructions for flush mounting:

Installation is possible in worktops made of stone, synthetics or solid wood. Heat resistance and watertight sealing of the cut edges must be observed. Concerning other materials please consult the worktop 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 worktop cut-out.

If installing several appliances in individual cut-outs allow for a division bar of minimum 50 mm between the individual cut-outs.

If operated next to gas appliances, the ventilation moulding AA 414 010 is recommended to ensure maximum performance of the cooktop.

If installed next to gas appliances, flat ducts must not be used for the piping up to the fan unit.

If installed next to VP 414, the flat duct must not be positioned underneath the VP 414.
