Planning notes
Depending on the type of installation
(surface-mounted or flush-mounted,
with or without an appliance cover),
the specific location of the cut-out
and the knob positions may vary.
The horizontal positioning of the
knobs may be aligned with the
specific burners.
The drawing "Installation of the
control knob" must be observed if the
panel is more than 23 mm thick (there
must be a recess at the rear).
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.
Please read additional planning notes
on page 132–136.
If installing several appliances in
individual cut-outs allow for a division
bar of minimum 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.
Rear panel and wall trims must be
heat-resistant and consist of a
non-flammable material.
A minimum lateral clearance of at
least 300 mm from adjacent
heat-sensitive furniture or contact
surfaces must be observed or thermal
insulation fitted.
Installation in a 90 cm wide lower cabi-
net is required.
With a total connected load of more
than 11 kW local regulations
concerning room ventilation, room
size and combination of extraction or
recirculation hoods must be observed.
The minimum distance between the
cooktop surface and a cabinet above,
out of combustible material, needs to
be 76 cm.
The minimum distance to a ventilation
above is shown at the planning hints
for the individual ventilation product.
The combination with VL 414 is not
recommended, since the air
extraction from the centre burner
cannot be guaranteed due to the
distance.
Appliance can be snapped into the
worktop from above.
Appliance weight: approx. 31.
Connection
Total connected load gas 17.8/18.0 kW.
Total connected load electric
15.0/15.0 W.
Connecting cable 1.4 m with plug.
Connecting cables 0.3 m and 1 m for
control knobs.
