Installation
GB
Before operating your new appliance please read
this instruction booklet carefully. It contains
important information concerning the safe operation,
installation and maintenance of the appliance.
Please keep these operating instructions for future
reference. Pass them on to any new owners of the
appliance.
Positioning
Keep all packaging material out of the reach of
children. It may present a choking or suffocation
hazard (see Precautions and tips).
The appliance must be installed by a qualified
professional in accordance with the instructions
provided. Incorrect installation may cause harm to
people and animals or may damage property.
Bu ilt-in appliance
Use a suitable cabinet to ensure that the appliance
functions properly.
The supporting surface must be heat-resistant up
to a temperature of approximately 100°C.
If the appliance is to be installed above an oven,
the oven must be equipped with a forced
ventilation cooling system.
Avoid installing the hob above a dishwasher: if
this cannot be avoided, place a waterproof
separation device between the two appliances.
Depending on the hob you want to install, the
cabinet must have the following dimensions (see
figure):

Ventilation
To allow adequate ventilation and to avoid overheating
of the surrounding surfaces the hob should be positioned
as follows:
At a minimum distance of 40 mm from the back
panel.
So that a minimum distance of 20 mm is
maintained between the installation cavity and the
cabinet underneath.
Kitchen cabinets adjacent to the appliance and
taller than the top of the hob must be at least 600
mm from the edge of
2
the hob.
Fixing
The appliance must be installed on a perfectly level
supporting surface.
Any deformities caused by improper fixing could
affect the features and operation of the hob.
The thickness of the supporting surface
taken into account when choosing
the length of the
should be
screws for the fixing hooks:
30 mm thick: 17.5 mm screws
40 mm thick: 7.5 mm screws
Fix the hob as follows:
1. Use short flat-bottomed screws to fix the 4
alignment springs in the holes provided at the
central point of each side of the hob.
2
. Place the hob in the cavity, make sure it is in a
central position and push down on the whole
perimeter until the hob is stuck to the supporting
surface.
3. For hobs with raised sides: After inserting the hob
into its cavity, insert the 4 fixing hooks (each has its
own pin)
into the lower edges of the hob, using the
long pointed screws to fix them in place, until the
glass is stuck to the supporting surface.
The screws for the alignment springs must remain
accessible.
In order to adhere to safety standards, the
appliance must not come into contact with electrical
parts once it has been installed.
All parts which ensure the safe operation of the
appliance must not be removable without the aid of
a tool.
Electrical connection
The electrical connection for the hob and for any
built-in oven must be carried out separately, both for
safety purposes and to make extracting the oven
easier.
Terminal board
On the lower part of the
UNDERSIDE OF HOB
appliance there is a
connection box for the
different types of electricity
supply (the picture is only an
indication and is not an exact
representation of the
purchased model).
Single-phase connection
The hob is equipped with a pre-connected electricity
supply cable, which is designed for single-phase
connection. Connect the wires in accordance with
the instructions given in the following table and
diagrams:

proceed as follows:
The cable provided is not suitable for the following
types of installation.
1. Use a suitable supply cable, H05RR-F or higher,
with the right dimensions (cable cross section: 25
mm).
2. To open the terminal board, use a screwdriver as
a lever under the side tabs of the cover (see
Terminal board picture).
3. Loosen the cable clamp screw and the terminal
board screws in accordance with the type of

Connecting the electricity supply cable to the
mains
If the appliance is being connected directly to the
electricity mains an omnipolar switch must be
installed with a minimum opening of 3 mm between
contacts.
The installer must ensure that the correct electrical
connection has been made and that it is fully
compliant with safety regulations.
Before connecting the appliance to the power
supply, make sure that:
The appliance is earthed and the plug is
compliant with the law.
The socket can withstand the maximum power of
the appliance, which is indicated on the data
plate located on the appliance itself.
The voltage falls within the range of values
indicated on the data plate.
The socket is compatible with the plug of the
appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the
plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it.
Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
Once the appliance has been installed, the power
supply cable and the electrical socket must be
easily accessible.
The cable must not be bent or compressed.
The cable must be checked regularly and replaced
by authorised technicians only.
The manufactur er declines any liability should
these safety measures not be observed.
Do not remove or replace the power supply cable
for any reason. Its removal or replacement will void
the warranty and the CE marking. INDESIT does not
assume liability for accidents or damage arising
from replacement/removal of the original power
supply cable. Replacement can only be accepted
when carried out by personnel authorised by
INDESIT and using an original spare part.
