INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installing the built -i n ov en in t o the ca bine t

The oven
can be
installed
either on
column
cabinets or
beneath
cabinet
worktops.
The cabinet
recess must
have the
following
dimensions: 865x467 mm.
An opening must be cut into the back of the oven cabinet or
support shelf (towards the rear) to ensur e adequate air flow
and ventilati on for the oven to co ol du ri ng op era ti on.
Make sure that the oven is safely instal led in the cabinet. Use
the 4 screws (A) to secure th e ove n.

Cabinet features

The cabinet must have the fo llowing features:

• The cabinet and related components must be able to withstand a te mperature of

150°C without deforming a nd/or surface defects appea ring.

• The cabinet must not interfere with the passage of electrical wiring.

• The cabinet housing the oven must have a load capacity of 70 kg.

Electrical connections

IMPORTANT:

• The electrical connections must be carried out by a qualified and/or authorise d

electrician on ly.

• The electrical connection must be carried out in conf ormity to the European

regulation s in force.

• The electrical connection required is a single-phase 220-240 V, 50-60 Hz type

connection (check the pr oduct's rating plate regarding the corre ct supply voltage
and frequency).

21

IT is mandat ory to earth the appliance:

• If the appliance is directly conn ect e d to the m ains ele c tr ici ty, an omnipolar swi tc h

with contact gap of at least 3 mm - able to withsta nd th e ove n' s pow er o ut pu t ­must be installed between the oven and power socket.

• The earth wire must by no means be interrupted by the omnipolar switch.

Always ensure that the oven is disconnected from the power supply before effecting
maintenanc e work and/or adjustments.

The oven may be supplied without a plug fitted on the power cord. If this occurs, ch oose
a plug that ca n withstand t he oven's maximum power output. Make sure that the eart h
wire (yellow/green) is pr operly connected to the relative plug pin.
Follow the steps below when connecting or replacing t he power cable:

• Disconnect the a ppl ia nc e or the powe r su p ply .

• Open the terminal board cover.

• Connect the ends of the powe r ca ble - rem ember that the earth wire is identified by

the yellow/green jacket. If using a BS 1363-approved 13 A plug, apply a 13 A fuse.

• The power ca ble must be secured by the cable clamp on the terminal board to

prevent it from turning and/or detaching. No point of the cable must be exposed to
temperature s exc e ed i ng 75 °C.

• The plug conne cting the appliance to the mains electricity must be s uitable for the

oven's power output. Moreover, the plug must be easily accessible once the oven
has been installed. An omnipolar switc h with a contact gap of at least 3 mm must
be installed in the event of a direct connection to the mains elect ricity.
