Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the hob rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of this book.
The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord incorporating a 3amp plug fitted. In the event of having to change the fuse, a 3amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse must be used.
Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth
Blue- Neutral
Brown- Live
Φ— Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with

Permanent Connection
In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current electric regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.
Ensure that the hob supply cord does not come into contact with surfaces with temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.
