BEFORE USING THE GLASS CERAMIC HOB
To make the most of your new appliance, please read the user instructions carefully and keep them handy for future consultation
INSTALLATION
Cooktop
- The cooktop must be set into a worktop between 20 mm and 50 mm deep
- A separator panel must be installed under the hob.
- The lower part of the product must be accessible after installation.
- If there is an oven beneath the hob, do not install the separator panel.
- There must be nothing between the cooktop and the oven (cross rails, brackets, etc.).
- The distance between the lower face of the glass ceramic hob and the cupboard or separating panel must be at least 20 mm.
- If the cooktop is to be installed next to a column unit, leave a distance of at least 100 mm from the edge of the cooktop to the side of the column unit.
- Make an opening in the worktop, respecting the dimensions indicated in the enclosed product description sheet.
- Apply the supplied gasket to the cooktop (unless it has already been fitted), after having cleaned its surface.
Important
In order to prevent the electronic circuits from overheating, and therefore from being damaged, we recommend the following:
- Do not install the cooktop near a dishwasher or washing machine, so that the electronic circuits do not come into contact with steam or moisture, which could damage them. If an oven (from our range of ovens) is installed beneath the cooktop, make sure that it is equipped with a cooling system. If the temperature of the electronic circuits exceeds the maximum permitted temperature, the cooktop will switch off automatically; in this case, wait for a few minutes until the internal temperature of the electronic circuits reaches a tolerable level, at which point it will be possible to switch the hob on again.
- Switch the hob off after use.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Electrical connection must be made before connecting the appliance to the electricity supply. The appliance must be installed by a qualified electrician who is fully aware of current safety and installation regulations. Specifically, installation must be carried out in compliance with the regulations of the local electricity supply company. Make sure that the voltage shown on the rating plate is the same as the power supply voltage in your home. Regulations require that the appliance be earthed: use conductors (including the earth conductor) of the appropriate size only. The manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or animals and for damage to property resulting from failure to observe the above regulations. For the electrical connection use a H05RR-F type cable as indicated in the table below:
Power supply voltage
The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply by means of an all- pole disconnect switch with a minimum contact gap of 3 mm. Attention: the power supply cable must be long enough to allow the cooktop to be removed from the worktop and must be positioned so as to avoid damage or overheating caused by contact with the base.
Connecting to the terminal board
Note: the yellow/green earth wire must be connected to the terminal with the symbol and must be longer than the other wires.
- Remove approx. 70 mm of the cable sheath from the power supply cable (B).
- Strip approx. 10 mm of sheath from the wires. Then insert the power supply cable into the cable clamp and connect the wires to the terminal block as indicated in the connection diagram placed close to the terminal block itself.
- Secure the power supply cable (B) by means of the cable clamp.
- Close the terminal board with the cover (A) securing it with the screw provided.
- After the electrical connection, fit the hob from the top and hook it to the support springs, according to the illustration
