Safety instructions
Installation
Warning!
Only a qualified person must install this
appliance.
• Remove all the packaging.
• Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Obey the installation instruction supplied with the ap-
pliance.
• Keep the minimum distance from the other applian-
ces and units.
• Always be careful when you move the appliance be-
cause it is heavy. Always wear safety gloves.
• Seal the cut surfaces with a sealant to prevent mois-
ture to cause swelling.
• Protect the bottom of the appliance from steam and
moisture.
• Do not install the appliance adjacent to a door or un-
der a window. This prevents hot cookware to fall
from the appliance when the door or the window is
opened.
• If the appliance is installed above drawers make
sure that the space, between the bottom of the appli-
ance and the upper drawer, is sufficient for air circu-
lation.
• The bottom of the appliance can get hot. We recom-
mend to install a non-combustile separation panel
under the appliance to prevent access to the bottom.
Electrical connection
Warning!
Risk of fire and electrical shock.
• All electrical connections should be made by a quali-
fied electrician.
• Before connecting the hob to an oven and before ev-
ery wiring make sure the main terminals of both ap-
pliances are not live.
• Make sure the appliance is installed correctly. Loose
and incorrect plug and socket can make the terminal
become too hot.
• Make sure that a shock protection is installed.
• Do not let the electricity bonds touch the appliance
or hot cookware, when you connect the appliance to
the near sockets.
• Do not let the electricity bonds tangle.
• Use a strain relief clamp on cable.
• Use the correct mains cable.
• Make sure not to cause damage to the mains plug
and to the mains cable. Contact the Service or an
electrician to change a damaged mains cable.
• The electrical installation must have an isolation de-
vice which lets you disconnect the appliance from
the mains at all poles. The isolation device must
have a contact opening width of minimum 3 mm.
• Use only correct isolation devices: line protecting
cut-outs, fuses (screw type fuses removed from the
holder), earth leakage trips and contactors.
