Before using the glass ceramic hob

•

To ensure best use of your new

appliance, please read the

operating instructions carefully

and keep them at hand in case of

need.

Installation

Cooking hob



Fit the cooking hob in a

worktop of thickness 30 mm

- 50 mm



Do not place materials

between the hob and oven

(crosspieces, brackets, etc.).



The distance between the

bottom of the glass ceramic

hob and the cabinet or

separating panel must be at

least 25 mm.



If a column unit is to be

installed next to the hob, it

must be kept at least 100 mm

from the edge of the hob.



Make an opening in the worktop,

respecting the dimensions

indicated in the enclosed product

sheet.



Apply the seal supplied around

the hob (unless it has already

been fitted), after cleaning the

surface.

Important

In order to prevent overheating and

related damaging of the electronic

circuits:



Do not install the hob near a

dishwasher or washing

machine, so that the

electronic circuits do not

come into contact with

steam or moisture which

could damage them.



Make sure that the oven

(manufactured by us) has a

cooling fan to protect the

electronic parts

as much as

possible if the hob is

installed above it.

If the temperature of the electronic

circuits exceeds the maximum

permissible value, the hob will

automatically switch off; in this case,

wait a few minutes until the internal

temperature of the electronic

circuits reaches a tolerable level,

when the hob can be switched on

again.

When combining a 900 mm hob and

a 600 mm oven (which must be

manufactured by us and with cooling

fan), access to the bottom of the hob

must be prevented by interposing a

separator.



Do not forget to switch off the

hob. If you inadvertently

forget to do so, the hob has an

automatic switching off device

which is activated after 1 to 6

hours of operation, depending

on the cooking level selected.

13

Installation

Fitting

The glass ceramic hob is designed

for fitting in a worktop.

1.

Arrange the seal around the

entire edge of the hob.

2.

To fix the appliance in the

worktop, use the clips

supplied, securing them with

screws and taking into

account the thickness of the

worktop, as shown in the

figure.

14

Electrical connections

The electrical connection must be

made before connecting the

appliance to the mains. The appliance

must be installed by a qualified

technician aware of the current safety

and installation regulations.

Installation must be carried out in

compliance with the directives of the

local electricity company. Make sure

that the voltage specified on the

rating plate is the same as that in your

home. The appliance must be

earthed: only use wires (including the

earth wires) of the appropriate size.

The manufacturer declines any

liability for injury to persons or

animals and damage to property

resulting from failure to observe the

above instructions. For the electrical

connection use an HO5 RR-F type

cable according to the table below:

Power supply voltage

If the hob is already fitted with

a power cable, refer to the

diagram for connection to the

mains supply given on the

product sheet.

The appliance must be

connected to the mains by

means of a multi-pole

disconnecting switch with

minimum contact gap of 3 mm.

Important

: The power cable must

be long enough to allow the hob to

be removed from the worktop and

must be positioned so as to avoid

damage or overheating caused by

contact with the base.

Connection to the terminal board

Note

: The yellow/green earth

wire must be connected to the

terminal with the symbol

and be longer than the other wires.



Strip approx. 70 mm of

sheathing from the power cable

(

B

).



Strip approx. 10 mm of

sheathing from the wires.

Firstly, insert the cable through

the special opening in the

cover. Then insert the power

cable in the cable clamp and

connect the wires to the

terminal block as shown in the

diagram printed on the bottom

of the protection cover.



Secure the power cable

(B)

with the cable clamp.



Fit and secure the protection

cover (

A

) by screwing it to the

bottom part of the hob.



After carrying out the electrical

connection, fit the hob from

the top and hook it to the

support clips, as shown in the

figure.
