2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Consult the installation instructions for safety standards on electrical or gas
appliances and for ventilation functions. In your interests and for your safety the
law requires that the installation and servicing of all electrical and gas
appliances be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with the
standards in force. Our approved installers guarantee a satisfactory job. Gas or
electrical appliances must always be uninstalled by suitably skilled people.
Before connecting the appliance to the power grid, check the data on the plate
against the data for the grid itself.
If the appliance is installed on a raised platform, secure it using suitable
fastening systems.
Before carrying out installation/maintenance work, make sure that the appliance
is disconnected from the power grid.
If cooking appliances are installed in motor vehicles (for example, camper vans,
caravans etc.), they must only be used when the vehicle is stationary.
Install the appliance so that when opening the drawers or doors of units
positioned at the level of the hob there is no possibility of making contact with
pans positioned on top of it.
Immediately after installation, carry out a quick test on the appliance following
the instructions provided later in this manual. Should the appliance not function,
disconnect it from the power supply and call the nearest technical assistance
centre.
The plug to be connected to the power supply cable and its socket must be of
the same type and conform to the standards in force. The socket must be
accessible after the appliance has been installed.
Never disconnect the plug by pulling on the cable.
If the power supply cable is damaged, contact the technical support service
immediately and they will replace it.
The appliance must be connected to earth in compliance with electrical system
safety standards.
During use the appliance and its accessible parts become very hot. Take care
never to touch the heating elements. Keep children younger than 8 away from
the appliance, unless under continuous supervision.
