INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION

Installation and maintenance must only be carried out by a qualified installer.

Incorrect installation could cause damage to persons, animals and property for which the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.

4) INSTALLING THE HOT PLATE

Check that the appliance is in a good condition after having removed the outer packaging and internal wrappings from around the various loose parts. In case of doubt, do not use the appliance and contact qualified personnel.

Never leave the packaging materials (cardboard, bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) within children's reach since they could become potential sources of danger.

The measurements of the opening made in the top of the modular cabinet and into which the hot plate will be installed are indicated in either fig. 4, comply with the measurements given for the hole into which the appliance will be recessed (see fig. 5).

If a wood is installed above the hob, please look at the hood manufacturer instructions regarding the minimum distance between hood and hob (fig. 5).

5) FIXING THE HOT PLATE

The hob has a special seal which prevents liquids from infiltrating into the cabinet. Strictly comply with the following instructions in order to correctly apply this seal:

-Detach the seals from their backing, checking that the transparent protection still adheres to the seal itself.

-Overturn the hob and correctly position seal “E” (fig. 6) under the edge of the hob itself, so that the outer part of the seal itself perfectly matches the outer perimetral edge of the hob. The ends of the strips must fit together without overlapping.

-Evenly and securely fix the seal to the hob, pressing it in place with the fingers.

-Remove the strip of protective paper from the seal “F” it the hooks into their relative housings “K” in the unit and set the hob into the hole in the cabinet. Lock it in place with the relative fixing screws “F” (see fig. 7).

WARNINGS:

Be aware that the glue that join the laminated plastic to the furniture, has to resist to temperature not below 150° C, to avoid the unstuck of the panelling.

The installer should bear in mind that the mixed appliance is the Y type. The rear wall, adjacent and surrounding surfaces must therefore be able to withstand an overtemperature of 65 K.

6) ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Electrical connection must be carried out in compliance with the specifications and provisions in force.

Before proceeding with the connections, check that:

-The voltage rating of the appliance and the current sockets suits the maximum power draw of the appliance (see data label affixed to the lower part of the appliance itself).

-The system is equipped with an efficient earth connection in compliance with the pertinent provisions in force. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these provisions.

-If the appliance has no power cable, connect a cable of adeguate section to the terminal strip (consult the table on next page) complying with the wiring diagram of fig. 8. This diagram is also affixed to the hot plate.

When connection to the electricity main is made by using a socket (gas version only):

-Fit a standard plug to power cable (if supplyied). This plug should be able to bear the load indicated on the data label. Connect the wires according to the diagram in fig. 8, remembering to comply with the following instructions:

letter L (live) = brown wire; letter N (neutral) = blue wire;

earth symbol = yellow-green wire.

-The powering cable must be positioned so that it is never able to reach an overtemperature of 75 K in any part.

-Never use reductions, adapters or shunts for the connection since these could cause false contacts and dangerous overheating.

When the appliance is connected straight to the electricity main:

-Install an omnipolar cutout between the appliance itself and the main. This circuit-breaker should be sized according to the rating of the appliance and the opening between its contacts should be at least 3 mm.

-Remember that the earth wire must not be cutout by the switch.

-Alternatively, the electrical connection may also be protected by a high sensitivity differential switch.

Installers are strongly advised to connect the yellow- green earthing wire to an efficient earthing system.

The manufacturer cannot be responsible for the missing earthing of the appliance.

WARNINGS:

All our appliances are designed and manufactured in compliance with European standards EN 60 335-1 and EN 60 335-2-6 plus the relative amendments.

The appliance complies with the provisions of the following EEC Directives:

-CEE 89/336 + 92/31 + 93/68 regarding to electromagnetic compatibility.

-CEE 73/23 + 93/68 regarding electrical safety.
