Hob installation

These instructions must be read carefully before proceeding to install the appliance.

The manufacturer is exempt from all responsibility resulting from non-compliance with the requirements of this manual.

Safety precautions

All installation and connection operations must be carried out by an authorised technician, in line with legal regulations and guidelines in force in the country, and local electricity providers' guidelines. It is recommended that you call our Technical Assistance Service for any of these jobs.

This appliance has been designed for home use only.

Before you begin, turn off the appliance's electricity supply.

The appliance's electrical connection cables must not be in contact with the hot parts of the hob. This could cause damageto the cable insulation.

Appliances with any electrical component must be earthed.

Do not tamper with the appliance's interior. If necessary, call our Technical Assistance Service.

Before installing

The units next to the appliance must be made of nonflammable materials. The laminated covering and glue for adhering it must be heat resistant.

This appliance cannot be installed on fridges, washing machines, dishwashers or similar.

If there is a drawer underneath the appliance, it must not contain temperature sensitive or easily inflammable objects, e. g. aerosols or shoe polish. Only use heat-resistant drawers.

An oven must have power ventilation to install a hob above it. Check the oven's dimensions in its installation manual.

Preparing the kitchen unit

Make the appropriate size cut in the work surface. Fig. 4. If there is no oven below the cooking hob, place a non-inflammable separator (e.g. metal or plywood) 10mm from the bottom of the cooking hob. This will prevent access to the base of the hob.

On wood work surfaces varnish the cutting surfaces with a special glue. This protects them from water vapour which could collect under the work surface.

Hob installation

The adhesive joint prevents water seepage. If it is factory installed (depending on model), do not move it. If it is not factory installed, adhere the joint supplied on the underside of the cooking hob. Fig. 6.
Remove the clamps from the bag provided. Gently screw the clamps into the holes indicated. Fig. 7.
- Insert the cooking hob. Press the sides of the hob until it is supported around its entire perimeter. Center it in the insertion space. Fig. 8.
- Turn the clamps and proceed in reverse order to the installation. Fig. 9.

  • Check that the power and voltage of the appliance given on the specifications plate are compatible with the electrical installation.
    The cooking hobs are supplied with a power cable with or without a wall socket plug.

Appliances with plugs must only be connected to sockets that have earth wires correctly installed.

  • Provide an omnipolar cut-off switch with a minimum contact separation of 3mm (except in plug connections, so long as the user has access to it).
    This appliance is type "Y": The entrance cable can only be changed by the Technical Assistance Service, and not by the user. The cable type and minimum section must be respected.
    The hob is fitted with a 6 × 1,5mm^2 electrical cable made of silicone suitable for a 220-230V, 2 phase connection. For any other connection, see figure 5.
    For safety reasons, the earthwire must be the first to connect, and the last to disconnect.
