Electrical Connection
1 This hob must be earthed.
Electrical Requirements
Any permanent electrical installation must comply with the
latest I.E.E. Regulations and local Electricity Board regulations. For your own safety this should be undertaken by a
qualified electrician, e.g. your local Electricity Board, or a
contractor who is on the roll of the National Inspection
Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC).
Electrical Connection
The hob is designed to be connected to 230 V (50 Hz) electricity supply. Before connecting to the mains supply ensure
that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the
rating plate underneath the hob.
For UK only
It is necessary that you install a double pole switch between
the hob and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum
gap of 3 mm between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current
rules.
1 The switch must not break the yellow and
Important
After installation and connecting, the cable must be placed
so that it cannot at any point reach a temperature of more
than 60°C above the ambient temperature.
Before the hob is connected, check that the main fuse and
the domestic installation can support the load; and that the
power supply is properly earthed.
The manufacturer disclaims any responsibility should these
safety measures not be carried out.
green earth cable at any point.
It is necessary that the yellow / green earth
wire is about 2 cm longer than the live and
neutral ones.

Building In
1 The hob must be installed according to the in-
structions supplied by qualified and competent personnel to the relevant National
Standards.
Building In
• The dimensions of the cut-out section and recess required must be as shown in the relevant diagrams.
• Proper arrangements must be made of a continuous supply
of air to the hob to prevent overheating.
• Clean the worktop in the area of the cut-out section.
• Stick the one-sided self-adhesive sealing tape supplied all
the way round the lower edge of the cooking surface
along the outer edge of the glass ceramic panel. Do not
stretch it. The cut ends should lie in the middle of one
side. When you have cut it to length (add a few mm),
press the two ends flush up against one another.
• A protective floor must be installed under the appliance.

Cooking surface
• If after switching on the appliance a heat setting is not set
for a cooking zone within approx. 10 seconds, the appliance automatically switches itself off.
• If one or more sensor fields are touched for longer than
approx. 10 seconds, the cooking surface is automatically
switched off. ER03 flashes on the display or changes to h
if there is still residual heat.
• If all cooking zones are switched off, the cooking surface
automatically switches itself off after approx. 10 seconds.

3 Moisture (e.g. a wet cloth) or liquid boiling over onto
the control panel switches all cooking zones off.
Cooking zones
• If one of the cooking zones is not switched off after a certain time, or if the heat setting is not modified, the relevant cooking zone switches off automatically. h is

When the hob is first installed
1 Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the
hob including the advertising labels and any protective film, before using the hob.
3 When a cooking zone is switched on, it may hum
briefly. This is a characteristic of all ceramic glass
cooking zones and does not impair either the function or the life of the appliance.

Hints and Tips on cooking and frying
Cookware
• You can recognise good cookware from the bottoms of
the pans. The bottom should be as thick and flat as possible.
• Cookware made of enamelled steel or with aluminium or
copper bottoms can leave discolourations on the ceramic
glass surface which can be impossible to remove.
Energy saving
2 Always place cookware on the cooking zone before
it is switched on.
2 If possible, always place lids on the pans.
2 Switch cooking zones off before the end of the cook-
ing time, to take advantage of residual heat.
2 Bottom of pans and cooking zones should be the
same size.
