EN5

IMPORTANT:In order to prevent the electronic circuits from overheating, and therefore

from being damaged, we recommend the following:

• 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.

If an oven is installed beneath the hob, make sure that it is equipped with a cooling system.

If the temperature of the electronic circuits exceeds the maximum permitted temperature,

the hob will switch off automatically; in this case, wait for a few minutes until the internal

temperature of the electronic circuits reaches a tolerable level, at which point it will be

possible to switch the hob on again.

• Switch the hob off after use.

INSTALLATION

• The hob must be set into a worktop between

20 mm and 50 mm deep

• There must be nothing between the hob and

the oven (cross rails, brackets, etc.).

• The distance between the lower face of the

glass ceramic hob and the cupboard or

separating panel must be at least 20 mm.

• If the hob is to be installed next to a column

unit, leave a distance of at least 100 mm from

the edge of the hob.

• Make an opening in the worktop of the

dimensions shown in the Product Description

Sheet supplied separately.

• Apply the supplied gasket to the hob (unless it

Electrical connection must be made before connecting the appliance to the electricity

supply. The appliance must be installed by a qualified electrician who is fully aware of

current safety and installation regulations. Specifically, installation must be carried out in

compliance with the regulations of the local electricity supply company. Make sure that the

voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage in your home. Regulations

require that the appliance be earthed: use conductors (including the earth conductor) of the

appropriate size only. The manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals

and for damage to property resulting from failure to observe the above regulations. For the

electrical connection use a H05RR-F type cable as indicated in the table below:

POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE

The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply by means of an all-pole

disconnect switch with minimum contact gap of 3 mm.

ATTENTION:the power supply 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.

CONNECTING TO THE TERMINAL BOARD

N.B.:the yellow/green earth wire must be connected to the terminal with the symbol

and must be longer than the other wires.

• Remove approx. 70 mm of the cable sheath from the power supply cable (B).
