▶
The permanent electrical installation must only be
wired by a professional electrician. We recom-
mend installing a residual-current circuit breaker
(RCCB) in the appliance's power supply circuit.
Sharp-edged or hot components inside the appli-
ance may damage the connection cable.
▶
Do not kink or trap the connection cable.
▶
Do not route the connection cable along hot sur-
faces.
Incorrect repairs are dangerous.
▶
Repairs to the appliance should only be carried
out by trained specialist staff.
▶
Only use genuine spare parts when repairing the
appliance.
▶
If the power cord of this appliance is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer, the manu-
facturer's Customer Service or a similarly qualified
person in order to prevent any risk.
¡
Ensure that the information on the rating plate re-
garding the output and voltage complies with the
local connection conditions.
¡
The appliance corresponds to protection class 1.
You should therefore only use the appliance with
a protective earth connection.
¡
Do not connect the appliance to the power supply
during installation.
¡
Ensure that the protection against contact is guar-
anteed during installation.
¡
Only a qualified electrician may connect appli-
ances without a plug. They are subject to the re-
quirements of the local electricity provider.
¡
Do not use the appliance with an external timer or
a remote control.
¡
The appliance must only be connected using the
power cable provided.
Information on fitted units
Observe the cut-out dimensions and the installation
instructions when installing in a worktop.
The fitted units must be heat-resistant to at least
90 °C.
Ensure that the stability of the fitted unit is guaran-
teed after the cut-outs have been made.
To improve flame stability, install an intermediate
floor underneath the appliance in the installation cab-
inet.
Information about flush installation
With the flush installation, the appliance and worktop
are on one level. There is no unattractive stepping
between the appliance and the worktop.
You can install the appliance in the following
temperature-resistant and waterproof worktops:
¡
Stone worktops
¡
Plastic worktops, e.g. Corian®
¡
Solid wood worktops
Coordinate with the worktop manufacturer when us-
ing other materials.
Installation in compressed-wood worktops is not pos-
sible.
Have all cut-out work on the worktops carried out in
a specialist workshop in compliance with the installa-
tion diagram. The cut-out must be neat and precise
since the cut edge is visible on the surface.
Clean and degrease the cut-out edges with a suit-
able cleaning agent. When doing so, observe the us-
age instructions from the silicone manufacturer.

connection
