Electrical Connection
Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of
the appliance, that is the voltage stated on the rating
plate, corresponds to the available supply voltage.
The rating plate is located on the lower casing of the
hob.
The heating element voltage is AC230V~. The appli-
ance also works perfectly on older networks with
AC220V~.
The hob is to be connected to the mains using a de-
vice that allows the appliance to be disconnected
from the mains at all poles with a contact opening
width of at least 3 mm, eg. automatic line protecting
cut-out,earth leakage tripsorfuse.
A type H05VV-F cable or one with a higher grade
must be used as the mains connecting cable.
The connection must be carried out as shown in the
diagram. The connecting links should be fitted ac-
cording to the appropriate connection diagram. The
earth lead is connected to terminal
E
. The earth lead
must be longer than leads carrying electric current.
The cable connections must be made in accord-
ance with regulations and the terminal screws
tightened securely.
Finally, the connecting cable is to be secured with
the mains cable cleat and the covering closed by
pressing firmly (lock into place).
Before switching on for the first time, any protective
foil or stickers must be removed from the ceramic
glass surface.

Once connected to the mains supply check
that all cooking zones are ready for use by
briefly switching each on in turn at the maxi-
mum setting.
