Electrical Connection
Before connecting, check that the nominal voltage of the appliance, that is
the voltage stated on the rating plate, corresponds to the available supply
voltage. The rating plate is located on the lower casing of the hob.
The heating element voltage is AC230V~. The appliance also works per-
fectly on older networks with AC220V~.
The hob is to be connected to the mains using a device that allows the ap-
pliance to be disconnected from the mains at all poles with a contact open-
ing width of at least 3 mm, eg. automatic line protecting cut-out,earth
leakage tripsorfuse.
A type H05VV-F cable or one with a higher grade must be used as the mains
connecting cable.
The connection must be carried out as shown in the diagram. The connect-
ing links should be fitted according to the appropriate connection diagram.
The earth lead is connected to terminal E. The earth lead must be longer
than leads carrying electric current.
The cable connections must be made in accordance with regulations
and the terminal screws tightened securely.
Finally, the connecting cable is to be secured with the mains cable cleat and
the covering closed by pressing firmly (lock into place).
Before switching on for the first time, any protective foil or stickers must be
removed from the glass ceramic surface.
1 Once connected to the mains supply check that all cooking zones are ready
for use by briefly switching each on in turn at the maximum setting.
