Electrical connection
Hobs equipped with a three-pole power supply
cable are designed to operate with alternating
current at the voltage and frequency indicated on
the data plate (this is located on the lower part of the
appliance). The earth wire in the cable has a green
and yellow cover. If the appliance is to be installed
above a built-in electric oven, the electrical
connection of the hob and the oven must be carried
out separately, both for electrical safety purposes
and to make extracting the oven easier.
Connecting the power supply cable to the
electricity mains
Fit a standardised plug, suitable for the load
indicated on the data plate, to the power supply
cable.
The appliance must be directly connected to the
mains using an omnipolar switch with a minimum
contact opening of 3 mm installed between the
appliance and the mains. The switch must be
suitable for the charge indicated and must comply
with current electrical regulations (the earthing wire
must not be interrupted by the switch). The supply
cable must be positioned so that it does not come
into contact with temperatures higher than 50°C at
any point.
! The installer must ensure that the correct electrical
connection has been made and that it is compliant
with safety regulations.
Before connecting the appliance to the power
supply, make sure that:
• the appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant
with the law;
• the socket can withstand the maximum power of
the appliance, which is indicated on the data
plate;
• the voltage falls between the values indicated on
the data plate;
• the socket is compatible with the plug of the
appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the
plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it.
Do not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
! Once the appliance has been installed, the power
supply cable and the electrical socket must be
easily accessible.
! The cable must not be bent or compressed.
! The cable must be checked regularly and replaced
by authorised technicians only ( see Assistance ).
! The manufacturer declines any liability should these
safety measures not be observed.
Gas connection
The appliance should be connected to the mains
gas supply or to a gas cylinder in compliance with
current national regulations and subsequent
amendments. Before carrying out the connection,
make sure the cooker is compatible with the gas
supply you wish to use. If this is not the case, follow
the instructions indicated in the paragraph
"Adapting to different types of gas". When using
liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure
regulator which complies with current national
regulations and subsequent amendments.
! Make sure that the gas supply pressure is
consistent with the values indicated in Table 1,
"Burner and nozzle specifications". This will ensure
the safe operation and durability of your appliance
while maintaining efficient energy consumption.
Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)
! Connection to the gas system must be carried out
in such a way as not to place any strain of any kind
on the appliance.
There is an adjustable L-shaped pipe fitting on the
appliance supply ramp and this is fitted with a seal
in order to prevent leaks. The seal must always be
replaced after rotating the pipe fitting (seal supplied
with the appliance). The gas supply pipe fitting is a
threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel
pipe to a threaded attachment
The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas
cylindrical male attachment.
These pipes must be installed so that they are never
longer than 2000 mm when fully extended. Once
connection has been carried out, make sure that the
flexible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts
and is not crushed.
! Only use pipes and seals that comply with the
relevant current national regulations.
Checking the tightness of the connection
! When the installation process is complete, check
the pipe fittings for leaks using a soapy solution.
Never use a flame.
Adapting to different types of gas
To adapt the hob to a different type of gas other
than the default type (indicated by the label placed
on the lower part of the hob or on the packaging),
the burner nozzles should be replaced as follows:
