INSTALLATION
Electrical connection must be made before connecting the
appliance to the electricity supply. The appliance must be
installed by a qualified technician who is fully aware of current
safety and installation regulations. Specifically, installation
must be carried out in compliance with the regulations of the
local electricity supply company. Make sure that the voltage
indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage in
your home. Regulations require that the appliance is earthed:
use conductors (including the earth conductor) of the
appropriate size only. The manufacturer declines all liability for
injury to persons or animals and for damage to property
resulting from failure to observe the above regulations. For the
electrical connection use a HO5 RR-F type cable as indicated in
the table below:
Power supply voltage.
Conductors Amount x size
3 X 2.5 mm2
230 V ~ ~
The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply
by means of an all-pole disconnect switch with minimum
contact gap of 3 mm.
Warning: the power supply cable must be long enough to allow
the cooktop to be removed from the worktop and must be
positioned so as to avoid damage or overheating caused by
contact with the base.
Connection to gas supply
The gas supply system must comply with local regulations.
The connection of the cooking hob to the gas pipe network or gas
cylinder must be made by means of a rigid copper or steel pipe
with fittings complying with local regulations, or by means of a
continuous-surface stainless steel hose complying with local
regulations. Interpose gasket ?B? in the elbow connection.
The maximum length of the hose is 2 m.
Important: if a stainless steel hose is used, it must be
installed so as not to touch any movable part of the furniture.
It must pass through an area where there are no obstructions
and where it is possible to inspect it on all its length.
Adjustment to different types of gas
If a different type of gas from the one indicated in the plate is
used, the cooking hob must be adapted to it.
1. The gas nozzles must be changed by After-Sales Service or
a qualified technician. Nozzles not supplied with the
appliance must be ordered from After-Sales Service.
2. Connect the cooking hob to the gas shut-off valve by means
of a pipe suitable for the type of gas used, in compliance
with current local regulations.
3. Adjust the minimum setting of the taps.
Note: when liquid petroleum gas is used (G 30/G 31), the
minimum gas setting screws must be tightened as far as they
will go.
