Electrical Connection
Before connecting, check that the nom-
inal voltage of the appliance, that is the
voltage stated on the rating plate, corre-
sponds to the available supply voltage.
The rating plate is located on the lower
casing of the hob.
The heating element voltage is
AC230V~. The appliance also works
perfectly on networks with AC220V~ or
AC240V~.
The hob is to be connected to the mains
using a device that allows the appliance
to be disconnected from the mains at all
poles with a contact opening width of at
least 3 mm, eg. automatic line protect-
ing cut-out,earth leakage tripsorfuse.
A cable with minimum temperature rat-
ing of V90HT or one with a higher grade
must be used as the mains connecting
cable.
The connection must be carried out as
shown in the diagram. The connecting
links should be fitted according to the
appropriate connection diagram. The
earth lead is connected to terminal
E
.
The earth lead must be longer than
leads carrying electric current.
The cable connections must be
made in accordance with regula-
tions and the terminal screws tight-
ened securely.
Finally, the connecting cable is to be se-
cured with the mains cable cleat and the
covering closed by pressing firmly (lock
into place).
Before switching on for the first time,
any protective foil or stickers must be re-
moved from the glass ceramic surface.
Once connected to the mains sup-
ply check that all cooking zones are
ready for use by briefly switching
each on in turn at the maximum set-
ting.
Sticking on the seal
• Clean the worktop around the cut-
out area.
• Stick the single-sided adhesive seal-
ing tape provided on the underside
of the hob around the outside edge
ensuring that it is not stretched. The
two ends of the tape should join in
the middle of one side. After trim-
ming the tape (allow it to overlap by
2-3 mm), press the two ends togeth-
er.
The cut-out section in the worktop
is illustrated in the drawing with the
dimensions 560 x 490 / 880 x 490
mm. The appliance can also be built
into a shorter cut-out section with
the dimensions 560 x 485 / 880 x 485
mm.
