Electrical connections
• Hob electrical connection must be made before connecting the appliance to the electricity supply.
• Electrical connection must be carried out in compliance with the regulations of the local electric utility company.
• Make sure that the voltage indicated on the rating plate on the underside of the appliance corresponds to the domestic power supply
voltage.
• Regulations require that the appliance is earthed: use conductors (including the earth conductor) of the appropriate size only.
• For electrical connection, use an H05 RR-F type cable as specified in the table "Power supply voltage".
Connecting to the terminal board
Connect the yellow/green earth wire to the terminal with the symbol
1. Remove the terminal block cover (A), undoing the screw and inserting the cover in the terminal block hinge (B).
2. Strip approx. 70 mm of sheath from the power supply cable.
3. Strip approx. 10 mm of sheath from the wires. Insert the power supply cable into the cable clamp and connect the wires to the
terminal board as indicated in the diagram next to the terminal board itself.
4. Secure the power cable with the cable clamp.
5. Close the cover (C) and screw it on the terminal block with the removed screw - point (1).
Each time the cooktop is connected to the mains it carries out an automatic check which lasts several seconds.
The power supply cable must be long enough to allow the hob to be removed from the worktop
and must be positioned so as to avoid damage or overheating caused by contact with the base
of the hob itself. Do not use extension leads.

complying with local regulations, or by means of a continuous-surface stainless steel hose complyingwith local regulations. The maximum
length of the hose is 2 linear metres.
• Before connecting the tube to the elbow fitting (A), interpose the washer (B) supplied, in compliance with EN 549.
NOTE: if a stainless steel hose is used,it must be installed so as not to touch any mobile 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.
• After connection to the gas supply,checkfor leaks with soapy water.
INSTALLATION AND FIXING
The installer is responsible for any damage or injury resulting from incorrect installation.
To guarantee correct operation, the appliance must be installed on a perfectly flat surface.
The worktop must be 38 -60 mm thick. If necessary, cut the kitchen unit and worktop to fit before installing
the hob. Clean the cutout of any chips that could compromise appliance operation.
Install a separating panel under the hob (no separation panel is needed in case of oven under the hob)
• Before installation, make sure that:
- the local gas delivery conditions (nature and pressure) are compatible with the settings of the hob (see the rating plate and injector table).
- The outer surfaces of the furniture or appliances adjacent to the hob are heat resistant according to local regulations.
- Combustion products are discharged outdoors through specific hoods or wall and/or window mounted electrical fans.
- Continuous natural air circulation is ensured through a clear opening in a wall of at least 100 cm
a) permanent and in a wall to the outside of the room to be vented;
b) made in such a way that it cannot be obstructed from the inside or outside (not even accidentally);
c) protected by plastic grids, metallic mesh, etc., taking care not to reduce the air vent effective area mentioned a bove;
d) located near floor level and positioned so as not to interfere with the operation of the exhaust system
Assembly
1. Position the clips (A) in the spaces provided on the hob trim (fig. 3) if not already positioned.
2. Measure the centre point of the vertical sides of the cut-out (fig. 1)
3. Fit the brackets (C) in the centre of the vertical sides, aligning the upper edge of th e brackets so that they are flush with the worktop
surface (fig. 2).
