•Where the hob is not installed over a built-in oven, a wooden panel must be installed as insulation. This must be placed at a minimum distance of 20 mm from the lower part of the hob.

Ventilation

To ensure adequate ventilation, the back panel of the cabinet must be removed. It is advisable to install the oven so that it rests on two strips of wood, or on a completely flat surface with an opening of at least 45 x 560 mm (see diagrams).

When installing the cooktop above a built-in oven without forced ventilation, ensure that there are air inlets and outlets for ventilating the interior of the cabinet adequately.

Electrical connection

Hobs equipped with a three-pole power supply cable are designed to operate with alternating current at the voltage and frequency indicated on the data plate (this is located on the lower part of the appliance). The earth wire in the cable has a green and yellow cover. If the appliance is to be installed above a built-in electric oven, the electrical connection of the hob and the oven must be carried out separately, both for electrical safety purposes and to make extracting the oven easier.

Connecting the supply cable to the mains
	GB
Fit the supply cord with a standard plug for the
demand rate indicated on the rating plate or connect
it directly to the electrical mains. In the latter case, a
single pole switch must be placed between the
appliance and the mains, with a minimum opening
between the contacts of 3 mm in compliance with
current safety codes (the earthing wire must not be
interrupted by the switch). The power supply cord
must be positioned so that it does not reach a
temperature in excess of 50°C above room
temperature at any point.
Before making the actual connection, make sure
that:

•The fuse and electrical system can withstand the load required by the appliance;

•That the electrical supply system is equiped with an efficient earth hook-up according to the norms and regulations prescribed by law;

•That the plug or switch is easily accessible.

!the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow	-	Earth
Blue	-	Neutral
Brown	-	Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the Green & Yellow wire to the terminal

marked “E” or	or coloured Green or Green &
Yellow.

Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked “L” or coloured Red.

Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked “N” or coloured Black.

!Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.

!The cable must not be bent or compressed.

!The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised technicians only (see Assistance).

!The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.

Gas connection

The appliance should be connected to the main gas supply or to a gas cylinder in compliance with current national regulations. Before carrying out the connection, make sure the cooker is compatible with the gas supply you wish to use. If this is not the case, follow the instructions indicated in the paragraph “Adapting to different types of gas.”

When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure regulator which complies with current national regulations.
