Electrical Connection
Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of the appliance,
that is the voltage stated on the rating plate, corresponds to the avail-
able supply voltage. The rating plate is located on the lower casing of
the hob.
The heating element voltage is AC230V~. The appliance also works
perfectly on older networks with AC220V~.
The hob is to be connected to the mains using a device 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 con-
necting links should be fitted according 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 accordance with regula-
tions 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 glass ceramic 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 maximum set-
ting.
