I'm fitting a CDA HCG 741 hob into an oak worktop, above a built-under oven, the installation manual has left me confused on two parts.
Page 13 of the manual shown here
http://www.manualslib.com/manual/253891/Cda-Hcg-731.html?page=13#manual
Firstly: please see fig. 12 the cut-out size seems clear at 480x560 but there are additional numbers 0 and -2 shown, what does that mean?
Secondly: it says on that same page
"It is absolutely essential that you place a separator between the base of the hob and the built in unit or the oven"
I had a Gas Safe engineer in to have a look and price up the hob and oven connection and he said nothing of a separator, he just said as long as the hob is not touching the oven it will be fine.
What is a separator, what kind of material is suitable, and is it really necessary?
I emailed CDA but didn't even get a response
Cheers
