WARNING
WARNING
TIPS & INFORMATION
Safety instructions
The laws, ordinances, directives and standards in force in the
country of use are to be followed (safety regulations, proper
recycling in accordance with he regulations, etc.)
Installation may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
The minimum distances to other appliances and units are to
be observed. Anti-shock protection must be provided by the
installation, for example drawers may only be installed with
a protective floor directly underneath the appliance. The cut
surfaces of the workshop are to be protected against moisture
using a suitable sealant. The sealant seals the appliance to the
worktop with no gap. Avoid installing the appliance next to
doors and under windows. Otherwise hot cookware may be
knocked off the rings when doors are opened.
WARNING
Risk of injury from electrical current.
• The electrical mains terminal is live.
• Make electrical mains terminal free of voltage.
• Observe connection schematic.
• Observe electrical safety rules.
Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of the
appliance, that is the voltage stated on the rating plate,
corresponds to the available supply voltage.
The rating plate is located on the lower casting of the hob.
The heating element voltage is AC230V~. The appliance also
works perfectly on networks with AC220V~ or AC240V~.
The hob is to be connected to the mains using a device that
allows the appliance to be disconnected from the mains at
all poles with a contact opening width of at least 3mm, e.g.
automatic line protecting cut-out, earth leakage trips or fuse. A
cable with minimum temperature rating of V90HT or one with a
higher grade must be used as the mains connecting cable. The
connection must be carried out as shown in the diagram. The
connecting links should be fitted according to the appropriate
connection diagram. The earth lead must be longer than leads
carrying electric current.
The cable connections must be made in accordance with
regulations and the terminal screws tightened securely.
Finally, the connecting cable is to be secured with the mains
cable cleat and the covering closed by pressing firmly (lock into
place). Before switching on for the first time, any protective foil
or stickers must be removed from the glass ceramic surface.
min. 50mm
• Ensure anti-shock protection through correct installation by a
qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be connected to the electrical supply by
a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Risk of injury from electrical current.
Loose and inappropriate plug and socket connections can make
the terminal overheat.
• Have the clamping joints correctly installed by a qualified
electrician.
• Use strain relief clamp on cable.
• CAUTION: The surface temperature exceeds 95°C.
To avoid a hazard, underbench access must be restricted.
• Supply cords must have a temperature rating not less than
105°C.
CAUTION
Once connected to the mains supply check that all cooking
zones are ready for use by briefly switching each on in turn at
the maximum setting.
Sticking on the seal
• Clean the worktop around the cutout area.
• Stick the single-sided adhesive sealing tape provided on the
underside of the hob around the outside edge ensuring that
it is not stretched. The two ends of the tape should join in
the middle of one side. After trimming the tape (allow it to
overlap by 2–3mm), press the two ends together.
IMPORTANT
The cut-out section in the worktop is illustrated in the drawing
with the dimensions 560 x 490 / 880 x 490mm. The
appliance can also be built into a shorter cut-out section with the
dimensions 560 x 485 / 880 x 485 mm.
