Understanding hob cut out measurements

[gocsan]

Hi guys

I'm in the planning process of cutting a hole in my worktop for my hob. Before I do any cutting, I would like to verify if I have understood the guided measurements correctly. The instructions manual looks something similar to the diagram below.

So I have understood that the width in the diagram is 270mm with plus or minus 2mm for any error. However, I don't really understand the 490÷500 plus minus 2. Does this mean that I can cut either 490mm or 500mm ?

Many thanks

If you have the hob, then just measure the base of the unit, don't forget to include any screws that may be on the underside.

Cut at 490, you can always enlarge it.
