Safety
If the safety instructions and warnings are not followed, the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any resulting damage.
• This appliance should only be connected by a registered installer.
• Check the appliance for transport damage. Do not connect a
damaged appliance.
• The walls and the worktop surrounding the appliance must be
heat resistant up to at least 85 °C. Even though the appliance
itself does not get hot, the heat of a hot pan could discolour or
deform the wall.
• The worktop into which the hob is fitted should be flat.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for
exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not
applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the
room).
• Extraction hoods and other appliances that extract cooking
vapours can affect the safe operation of appliances that burn gas
or other fuel (including those in other rooms) by backflowing
combustion gases. These gases can potentially lead to carbon
monoxide poisoning. After installing an extraction hood or other
vapour extractor, the operation of appliances with flue gas
extraction must be tested by a competent person to ensure that
the combustion gases do not flow back.
• Local regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be
fulfilled.
Electrical connection
• This appliance must be earthed.
• The electrical connection must comply with national and local
regulations.
• Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions
(voltage and frequency) and the adjustment of the appliance are
compatible.
• Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring
in accordance with the wiring rules.
