• Where the hob is not installed over a built-in oven, a
wooden panel must be installed as insulation. This must
be placed at a minimum distance of 20 mm from the
lower part of the hob.
Ventilation
To ensure adequate ventilation, the back panel of the
cabinet must be removed. It is advisable to install the oven
so that it rests on two strips of wood, or on a completely flat
surface with an opening of at least 45 x 560 mm (
see
diagrams).
Where a hob is installed above an oven without a forced
ventilation cooling system, adequate ventilation must be
provided inside the cabinet by means of air holes through
which air can pass (see figure).
Electrical connection
Hobs equipped with a three-pole power supply cable are
designed to operate with alternating current at the voltage
and frequency indicated on the data plate (this is located on
the lower part of the appliance). The earth wire in the cable
has a green and yellow cover. If the appliance is to be
installed above a built-in electric oven, the electrical
connection of the hob and the oven must be carried out
separately, both for electrical safety purposes and to make
extracting the oven easier.
Connecting the supply cable to the mains
Install a standardised plug corresponding to the load
indicated on the data plate.
The appliance must be directly connected to the mains using
an omnipolar circuit-breaker with a minimum contact opening
of 3 mm installed between the appliance and the mains. The
circuit-breaker must be suitable for the charge indicated and
must comply with current electrical regulations (the earthing
wire must not be interrupted by the circuit-breaker). The
supply cable must not come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50°C.
!
The installer must ensure that the correct electrical
connection has been made and that it is compliant with
safety regulations.
Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that:
• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with
the law.
• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated on the data plate.
• The voltage is in the range between the values indicated
on the data plate.
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If
the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an
authorised technician to replace it. Do not use extension
cords or multiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply
cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.
! The cable must not be bent or compressed.
! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by
authorised technicians only ( see Assistance).
! The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety
measures not be observed.
Gas connection
The appliance should be connected to the main gas supply
or to a gas cylinder in compliance with current national
regulations. Before carrying out the connection, make sure
the cooker is compatible with the gas supply you wish to
use. If this is not the case, follow the instructions indicated in
the paragraph “Adapting to different types of gas.”
When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure
regulator which complies with current national regulations.
! Check that the pressure of the gas supply is consistent
with the values indicated in Table 1 (“Burner and nozzle
specifications”). This will ensure the safe operation and
longevity of your appliance while maintaining efficient
energy consumption.
Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)
! Connection to the gas system must be carried out in
such a way as not to place any strain of any kind on the
appliance.
