Installation

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

Mains Connection

Your cooker should have been checked to ensure that the voltage corresponds with your supply voltage, this is stated on the rating plate, which is situated on the outer rear panel.The model number and the serial number are located on the front of the cooker, as shown on the Features page.

The cooker must be connected by a competent person such as one who is a, NICEIC registered contractor to a suitable double-pole control unit with a minimum rating of 32A and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm (applicable to newer properties, older properties where a 30A double pole control unit and a minimum contact clearance of 3mm is acceptable).

The double pole control unit should be fitted adjacent to the cooker, in accordance with IEE regulations.The control unit must be within 2 metres of but not directly above the appliance and should be easily accessible in the event of an emergency.

The power supply cable should conform to B.S.6004 with a conductor size of 6mm2, minimum.

Access to the mains terminals is gained by removing the rear access cover. The mains cable must pass through the cable clamp adjacent to the terminal block. Sufficient cable should be used to allow the cooker to be pulled out for servicing.

Ensure that the mains cable is routed away from any brackets affixed to the rear panel and is not trapped to the rear wall when pushing the cooker into position between cabinets.

For the installation of the feeding cable carry out the following operations:

1 Open the terminal b o a r d b y i n s e r t i n g a screwdriver into the bottom tabs of the cover. Use the screwdriver as a lever by pushing it down to open the cover (see diagram).

2 Loosen the cable clamp screw and remove it, using a screwdriver as a lever (see figure).

3 . Fasten the wires under the screw heads, respecting

the colour code: Black/Blue (N), Red/ Brown (L) and Bare Wire/ Yellow-Green ().

	 Once the connections have been made, tighten all the
					GB
	terminal screws fully.
	Fasten the supply cable in place with the clamp and
	close the cover of the terminal board.
	Levelling
	Four feet are fitted which can be adjusted up or down to
	set the height (900mm - 930mm) and level the cooker.
	The feet can be simply screwed in or out to lower or raise
	the cooker.
	After the correct height is achieved, lock the feet into
	position by tightening the locking nut using an open
	ended spanner.
	CAUTION: Some soft floor coverings may get damaged
	if the cooker is not moved carefully.
	NOTE: Ensure oven shelves are level by using a spirit
	level on the rod shelves.
	Siting the Cooker
	The cooker is designed to fit between kitchen cabinets
	spaced 600mm apart.
	The space either side need only be sufficient to allow
	withdrawal of the cooker for servicing and cleaning. It
	can be used with cabinets one side or both as well as in
	an angled corner setting.
	It can also be used freestanding.
	Adjacent side walls which project above hob level, must
	not be nearer to the cooker than 150mm and should be
	protected by heat resistant material. Any overhanging
	surface or cooker hood should not be nearer than 650mm.
	Note: This appliance must NOT be fitted on a platform.
	Moving the Cooker			Before moving your
				cooker, switch off at
			the cooker control unit,
			ensure that it is cool.
			Open the grill door
			sufficiently to allow a
			comfortable grip on the
			underside front edge of
			the oven roof, avoiding
			any grill elements.
	Note: Take care in moving the cooker as it is heavy.
	Take care to ensure that any floor covering is not
	damaged.
	Radio Interference
	This appliance conforms to EN 55014 regarding
	suppression of radio and television interference.

Keep children away from the appliance when cooking as the surfaces will get extremely hot during and after use.

If the cooker is placed on a pedestal, take the necessary precautions to prevent the cooker from sliding off the

pedestal itself.

Turn controls off when not in use.

Stand back when opening an oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to disperse.

Always use dry good quality oven gloves when removing items from the oven/grill.

Always place pans centrally over the hotplate making sure handles are kept away from the edge of the hob and cannot become heated by other hotplates or pans.

Always take care to avoid heat or steam burns when operating the controls.

Always make sure the shelves are in the correct position before switching on the oven or grill.

Always keep the oven/grill door closed when the appliance is not in use.

Always keep the appliance clean as a build up of grease or fat from cooking can cause a fire.

Always follow the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.

Always keep ventilation slots clear of obstructions.

Always refer servicing to a qualified appliance service engineer.

Always take care when removing items from the grill compartment when the lower oven is in use as the contents will be hot

Always turn off the electricity supply to the appliance at the wall switch should any glass panel (if fitted) crack or shatter and then DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE until repaired.

During use, the oven becomes hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven.

The appliance must be used by adults only for the preparation of food, in accordance with the instructions outlined in this booklet. Any other use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room) constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The manufacturer may not be held liable for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect and unreasonable use of the appliance.

If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes, after the residual heat indicator lights turn off and the fan stops (if present), the appliance a u t o m a t i c a l l y s w i t c h e s t o t h e . o f f m o d e . . The appliance resumes the operating mode once the ON/OFF button is pressed.

Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, make	GB
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 manufacturer 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.

!The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning product. During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

!A few seconds after the hob is connected to the electricity supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may now be switched on.

Types of noise during normal hob operation:

•Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that make up the induction element and the pot; it is generated by the electromagnetic field required for heating and increases as the power of the induction element increases.

•Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water is placed into the pot.

•Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be more or less intense depending on the material making up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot dimensions increase.
