Franke Consumer Products FHPL 301 1CO Installation, Do not allow children to touch

Do not allow children to touch:

-the controls or the appliance in general;

-the packing components (bags, polystyrene, staples, etc.);

-the appliance, during and immediately after use, since the hob becomes very hot;

-an unused appliance (make any potentially hazardous parts safe).

Do not:

-touch the appliance with wet parts of the body;

-use the appliance when barefoot;

-pull the appliance or power cable to unplug it;

-carry out improper or hazardous operations;

-leave the power cables of other electric appliances on hot parts of the appliance;

-expose the appliance to atmospheric agents;

-use the appliance as a support top;

-use flammable liquids near the appliance;

-use adapters, multi-sockets or extension leads;

-allow anyone except qualified personnel to install or repair the appliance.

Important

-Do not place unstable or deformed pots on the hotplates, since they may tip over or cause spills.

-Pay particular attention to the applicable regulations on ventilation. The use of a cooking appliance produces heat and humidity in the room where it is installed. Make sure the room is adequately ventilated: keep natural ventilation openings open, or install a mechanical ventilation device (extractor hood with exhaust duct). In case of intensive or prolonged use of the appliance, it may be necessary to provide additional ventilation, for example by opening a window, or more efficient ventilation, by increasing the fan speed (if present).

-If the vitroceramic surface is broken or cracked, disconnect the hob from the power supply to prevent any possibility of electric shock. Do not use the hob if the vitroceramic surface is broken or cracked: contact the authorised Technical Service Centre to repair the product.

The manufacturer declines any liability for damage due to: incorrect installation, improper, incorrect or unreasonable use.

Installation

Operations for appliance installation are described below. These procedures must be carried out by qualified personnel in compliance with current local regulations, as installation by an unskilled person may constitute a hazard.

The manufacturer declines any liability for injury to persons or damage to things due to non- compliance with these provisions.

Preparing the cabinet

This handbook refers to a class 3 built-in hob.

Prepare the hole in the top according to the measurements given in fig.1 on page 2.

Fitting in the cabinet

After carrying out the operations for connecting the power cable to the power supply, following the relevant instructions, apply the sealing strip around the hole and position the hob. Carefully tighten the fixing hooks (see fig. 2 on page 2). Remove any excess sealing strip.

Note

If the appliance is not installed above an oven, a separator baffle must be arranged (see fig. 3 on page 2).

If the oven underneath does not have forced cooling ventilation, a panel separating the oven compartment from that of the vitroceramic hob must also be provided, so that the hob control electronics are not affected by the heat coming from the oven. The openings on the bottom of the hob must not be obstructed in any way. Lasting safe and optimum performance of the appliance can be ensured only in this way.
