•  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).

 

560 mm

.

45 mm.

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

!

 THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

The hob is designed to work with alternating current, the supply voltage and 

frequency indicated on the rating plate (situated under the hob). Make sure 

that the local supply voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated on the 

rating plate.

Connecting the supply cable to the mains electricity supply

For models supplied without a plug, fit a standard plug suitable for the load 

indicated on the rating plate, onto a cable and connect to a suitable socket. 

To connect direct to the mains supply, a double pole switch with a contact 

separation of at least 3mm suitable for the load and complying with current 

standards and regulations must be fitted between the appliance and the 

mains supply outlet.

The green-yellow earth wire must not be interrupted by the switch.

The supply cable must be positioned so that no part of it reaches a temperature 

of 50°C above room temperature. For installation above a built-under 

oven, the hob and the oven must be connected separately to the electricity 

supply, both for safetly reasons and for easy removal of the oven for repair, 

maintenance etc.

DO NOT use adapters as they could cause overheating or burning.

Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that:

•  the limiter switch and the domestic system can withstand the load from 

the appliance (see rating plate).

•  the supply system is efficiently earthed according to standards and laws 

in force.

•  the socket or double-pole switch are easily accessible when the appliance 

is installed.

!

 The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following 

code:

Green & Yellow  

- Earth

Blue  

 

- Neutral

Brown    

- Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the 

coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the Green & Yellow wire to terminal marked “E” or 

 or coloured 

Green or Green & Yellow.

Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked “L” or coloured Red or Brown.

Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked “N” or coloured Black or Blue.

FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE ACCIDENT-PREVENTION REGULATIONS 

RELIEVES THE MANUFACTURER OF ALL LIABILITY.

Replacing the cable

Use a rubber cable of the type H05RR-F with a suitable cross section 3 x 

0.75 mm².

The yellow-green earth wire must be 2-3 cm longer than the other wires.

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.

There is an adjustable 

L

-shaped pipe fitting on the appliance supply ramp 

and this is fitted with a seal in order to prevent leaks. The seal must always 

be replaced after rotating the pipe fitting (seal provided with appliance). The 

gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.

Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to a threaded 

attachment

The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.

These pipes must be installed so that they are never longer than 2000 mm 

when fully extended. Once connection has been carried out, make sure that 

the flexible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts and is not compressed.

!

 Only use pipes and seals that comply with current national regulations.

Checking the tightness of the connection

!

 When the installation process is complete, check the pipe fittings for leaks 

using a soapy solution. Never use a flame.

Adapting to different types of gas

To adapt the hob to a different type of gas other than default type (indicated 

on the rating plate at the base of the hob or on the packaging), the burner 

nozzles should be replaced as follows:

1.  Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their seats.
