connection of the appliance and to follow the recommended safety
regulations.

Fit a standard plug (where applicable). First make sure that the plug
is correctly rated for the power consumption of the hob.
•
Plug the appliance in to an earthed socket.
•
Do not use multiple plug adapters or extension cables.
•
Connection to the mains must be through an omnipolar switch which
has a contact gap of at least 3 mm.
•
When the appliance is installed, the switch or socket must always
be accessible.
•
The supply cable must not come in contact with hot surfaces and
must be positioned so that it does not at any time exceed the
temperature of 50°C.

After the appliance has been installed, the electrical components
must not be accessible.
The producer does not accept responsibility for any damage or injury to
persons or property resulting from non-observance of these
