Default Induction hob cannot be placed over "built under" oven

I am installing a new kitchen and want to place an induction hob over
an electric built under double oven (i.e. built-in oven under the
worktop, hob built into the worktop).

The technical data for the following hob mentions:
"Not recommended for installation above built under ovens".

Apparently this is because the electromagnetism / eddy currents
produced by the hob would interfere with the oven.
Anyone know if this is the case for all induction hobs or if it is
restricted to this particular brand (Baumatic) ?
