this type of product category. However special care should be taken around the
underneath of the appliance as this area is not designed or intended to be touched
and may contain sharp or rough edges, that may cause injury.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

■ The appliance must be connected to the mains checking that the voltage corresponds
to the value given in the rating plate and that the electrical cable sections can withstand

the load specied on the plate.

■ The plug must be connected to an earthed socket in compliance with safety standards.

■ If the appliance is supplied without plug, t a standard plug which is suitable for the
power consumed by the appliance.

■ The wires in the power cable are coloured in accordance with the following code:

 Green/Yellow = Earth, Blue = Neutral, Brown = Active.
 If the colours of the wires in the power cable to the appliance do not correspond with

the coloured markings identifying the terminals in the junction terminal, proceed as

follows:

The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal

1.
marked “E” (Earth) or “

2. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal marked “N”
(Neutral) or coloured Black.

” coloured Green.

3. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked “L”
(Live) or “A” (Active) or coloured Red.

■ A suitable isolating switch providing full disconnection from the mains power supply
(under overvoltage category III conditions) shall be incorporated in the permanent
wiring, mounted and positioned to comply with the local wiring rules and regulations.
The isolating switch must be of an approved type and provide a 3 mm air gap contact
separation in all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the local wiring rules allow
for this variation of the requirements).

■ The power supply cable must not touch the hot parts and must be positioned so that it
does not exceed 50°C above ambient.

■ Once the appliance has been installed, the switch or socket must always be accessible.

■ If the supply cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or it’s Service

Agent or a similarly qualied person in order to avoid a hazard.

N.B. The connection of the appliance to earth is mandatory.

If the installation requires alterations to the domestic electrical system call a qualied

electrician.
He should also check that the socket cable section is suitable for the power drawn by the
appliance.

200 mm, the surface shall be protected (in accordance with AS/NZS5601) to a height of not less
than 150 mm above the hob for the full dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

THIS APPLIANCE SHALL NOT BE USED AS A SPACE HEATER, ESPECIALLY IF

INSTALLED IN MARINE CRAFT OR CARAVANS.

The installation shall comply with the dimensions in gs. 2a, 2b bearing in mind that:

■ A 40mm ventilation gap must be provided between the bottom of the appliance and
any cabinetry, draw unit, thermal protection barrier or appliance.

■ If the cooktop is installed directly above an oven (which does not have a cooling fan
motor) or if its base is accessible through a cupboard or drawer space after installation,
a thermal protection barrier must be installed below the base of the cooktop as

indicated in g. 2c.

■ If the oven installed below the cooktop has a cooling fan motor, the thermal protection
barrier is not required.

■ If the cooktop is installed above an oven, the two appliances shall be connected to the
gas and/or electrical supply with independent connections.

■ Overhead clearances - In no case shall the clearance between the highest part of
the hob and a range hood be less than 600 mm, or for an overhead exhaust fan 750
mm. Any other downward facing combustible surface less than 600 mm above the
highest part of the hob shall be protected for the full width and depth of the cooking
surface area in accordance with local regulations in force. However, in no case shall
this clearance to any surface be less than 450 mm.

Standards requirement

Temperature of nearby surfaces. Australian and New Zealand Gas Installation Standards

(AS/NZS5601) require a cooktop to be installed so that the surface temperature of any
nearby combustible surface will not exceed 65°C above ambient.

This is typically achieved by:

■ having the cooktop spaced away from the wall (see gures 2a, 2b);

 AND

■ protecting the wall to a height of at least 150 mm along its length (minimum height of
non-combustible material when used on adjacent walls) with non-combustible surface

materials such as:

– 5 mm-thick ceramic tiles (these alone are adequate);
– tempered glass or sheetmetal, minimum thickness 0.4 mm (acceptable when used

in front of a re resistant material).

Each cooktop is provided with an installation kit including brackets and screws for fastening
the cooktop to benches from 30 to 40mm thick.

ModelsDEGHSL60,DEGHSL75(g.3a): The kit includes two “F” type brackets (for the
front of the cooktop), two “R” type brackets (for the rear of the cooktop) and four self­threading screws “S”.

Model

DEGHSL90

three “R” type brackets (for the rear of the cooktop) and seven self-threading screws “S”.

• Cut the unit according to the dimensions

in g. 2a.

• Stretch gasket “G” over the edge of the

hole made, being careful to overlay the
junction edges.

– Fasten the brackets “F” and “R” to

the appropriate socket holes, without
tightening the screws “S” for the
moment. Make sure that the tabs are

mounted correctly, as shown (gs. 3a,

3b, 3c, 3d). Rotate the tabs so that the
cooktop can be put into the cutout.

– Put the cooktop into the cutout and

position it correctly.

– Put the brackets “F” and “R” into place;

tooth “A” of the brackets should go into

the hole (gs. 3c, 3d).

– Tighten screws “S” until the cooktop is

completely secured to the bench.

– Using a sharp cutter or trimmer knife,

trim the excess sealing material around
the edge of the cooktop.

 T ake care not to damage the workbench.
