• Do not position
blinds behind the
cooker or less than 200
mm away from its
sides.
• Any hoods must be
installed according to
the instructions listed in
the relevant operating
manual.
Levelling
If it is necessary to level the
appliance, screw the
adjustable feet into the places
provided on each corner of the
base of the cooker (
see
figure).
The legs* fit into the slots on
the underside of the base of
the cooker.
Electrical connection
Install a standardised plug corresponding to the
load indicated on the appliance data plate (
see
Technical data table).
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
NFC 15-100 regulations (the earthing wire must not be
interrupted by the circuit-breaker). The supply cable
must be positioned so that it does not come into
contact with temperatures higher than 50°C at any point.
Before connecting the appliance 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 by 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.

Gas connection
Connection to the gas network or to the gas cylinder
may be carried out using a flexible rubber or steel
hose, in accordance with current national legislation
and after making sure that the appliance is suited to
the type of gas with which it will be supplied (see the
rating sticker on the cover: if this is not the case
see
below). When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a
pressure regulator which complies with current national
regulations. To make connection easier, the gas
supply may be turned sideways*: reverse the position
of the hose holder with that of the cap and replace the
gasket that is supplied with the appliance.
! Check that the pressure of the gas supply is
consistent with the values indicated in the Table of
burner and nozzle specifications (
see below). This
will ensure the safe operation and durability of your
appliance while maintaining efficient energy
consumption.
Gas connection using a flexible rubber hose
Make sure that the hose complies with current
national legislation. The internal diameter of the hose
must measure: 8 mm for liquid gas supply; 13 mm
for methane gas supply.
Once the connection has been performed, make
sure that the hose:
• Does not come into contact with any parts that
reach temperatures of over 50°C.
• Is not subject to any pulling or twisting forces and
that it is not kinked or bent.
• Does not come into contact with blades, sharp
corners or moving parts and that it is not
compressed.
• Is easy to inspect along its whole length so that
its condition may be checked.
• Is shorter than 1500 mm.
• Fits firmly into place at both ends, where it will be
fixed using clamps that comply with current
regulations.
