Instructions for the installer

2. POSITIONING OF HOB

The following operation requires building and/or carpentry work so must be carried out by a competent tradesman. Installation can be carried out on various materials such as masonry, metal, solid wood or plastic laminated wood as long as they are heat resistant (T 90°C). NEVER USE SILICONE OR OTHER INSULATING PRODUCTS WHEN INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE; USE ONLY THE RUBBER GASKET PROVIDED.

2.1.1 Attachment to support structure

Create an opening with the dimensions shown in the figure in the top surface of the counter, keeping a minimum distance of 50 mm from the rear border. This appliance can therefore be mounted against walls higher than the work surface on condition that a certain distance “X” be kept between the appliance and the wall as shown in the figure so as to avoid damage from overheating. Make sure there is a minimum of 750 mm between the hot plate flames and any shelf that may be installed directly above them.

Accurately position the gasket provided all around the outer edge of the hole in the top surface as shown in the figures below, pressing it down so as to make it adhere properly. For measurements, refer to the figure depending on the hob model to be installed, bearing in mind that in both models the front and rear sides must skim the hole. Secure the hob to the counter with brackets A (supplied). Carefully trim any excess from border

B of the gasket. The distances in the following drawing refer to the hole on the inner side of the gasket.

Instructions for the installer

In case of installation on a hollow compartment with doors, a separating

panel has to be placed under the hob. Keep a minimum distance of 10 mm between the bottom of the unit and the panel surface. The panel has to be easily removable to allow access in the event of technical service.

Instructions for the installer

3. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Make sure that the voltage and capacity of the power line conform to the data shown on the plate located under the casing. Do not remove this plate for any reason.

The plug on the end of the supply cable and the wall socket must be the same type and conform to the current electrical system regulations. Check that the power line is adequately grounded.

On the power line, install an omnipolar cut-off device with contact cut-off distance greater than or equal to 3 mm, located in an easily accessible position near the unit.

Do not use reducers, adapters or shunts.

If the power cable is replaced, the wire section on the new cable must not be less than 1.5 mm2 (3 x 1.5 cable), keeping in mind that the end to be connected to the hob must have the ground wire (yellow-green) longer by at least 20 mm. Use only H05V2V2-F cable or similar which has a maximum temperature of 90°C. Any replacement needed should be carried out by a specialised technician who should make the mains connections according to the following diagram.

L = brown N = blue

= yellow-green

The manufacturer will not be liable for any damage to persons or property caused by non-observance of the above instructions or deriving from the tampering of even a single part of the hob.
