INTRODUCTION

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

RATING PLATE

This is situated on the front frame of the appliance and can be seen upon opening the door. Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on the back or top of some models (where applicable).

The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is given on the rating plate.

Do not remove the rating plate from the appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.

INSTALLATION

If your appliance has been damaged in transit, contact your supplier immediately. DO NOT attempt to install it.

Your appliance left the factory fully packaged to protect it from damage. If it is delivered without packaging and damage has occurred, the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility. Contact your supplier for advice.

Once the packaging has been removed the appliance should only be moved by hand. DO NOT use a sack barrow or any other aid to lift the appliance as damage may occur.

Connection to the electricity supply must be carried out by a qualified electrician/competent person.

The electrical connection should be made using a double pole isolating switch (cooker socket) with at least 3mm contact separation in all poles. The cable must have conductors of sufficiently high cross- sectional area to prevent overheating and deterioration.

The recommended cross-section area is six square millimetres (6.00mm2).

The cable should be routed away from potentially hot areas marked by an ‘X’ in the diagram below.

To move the appliance, open the main oven door, and lift the appliance by holding inside the top of the oven compartment.

This is a type X appliance, which means it is free- standing and can be fitted with cabinets on one or both sides.

Side walls which are above hob level should be protected by heat resistant non-combustible material and MUST NOT be nearer than 40mm to the hob side.

A nominal air gap of 2mm at the sides of the appliance is required to enable the appliance to be moved into position. It is recommended that proprietary trims are fitted to protect the worktops of either side of the appliance. These are available from most DIY stores.

Air gap

Always ensure an air gap is maintained at hotplate level. Tiles or other forms of deep wall covering should not obscure this gap.

Overhanging surfaces or a cooker hood should be a minimum of 685mm above the hob.

It is important to ensure that the appliance is level after installation. Levelling feet are fitted to the appliance to accommodate uneven floors.

With a quick swipe, cooks can adjust temperatures or switch cooking zones on and off, making the cooking process more efficient and enjoyable. A residual heat indicator further enhances safety by notifying users if the surface is still hot after use.

The sleek, modern design of the SIE340 not only enhances the kitchen's aesthetics but is also easy to clean. The smooth glass surface ensures that spills and splatters can be wiped away effortlessly, maintaining a tidy cooking environment. The cooktop is also equipped with a child lock feature, ensuring that little hands cannot accidentally operate the controls, adding an extra layer of safety for family homes.

For those who prioritize practicality, the Electrolux SIE340 includes a power boost function, which allows for rapid heating when needed.
