Connecting the supply cable to the mains

Install a standardised plug corresponding to the load 

indicated on the data plate. 

The appliance must be directly connected to the mains 

using an omnipolar circuit-breaker with a minimum contact 

opening of 3 mm installed between the appliance and the 

mains.  The circuit-breaker must be suitable for the charge 

indicated and must comply with current electrical regulations 

(the earthing wire must not be interrupted by the circuit-

breaker). The supply cable must not come into contact with 

surfaces with temperatures higher than 50°C.

!

 The installer must ensure that the correct electrical 

connection has been made and that it is compliant with 

safety regulations.

Before connecting 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 is in the range 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.

!

 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.

their recommended uses.

Practical advice on using the electric 

hotplates

To avoid heat loss and damage to the hotplates, use pans 

with a flat base, whose diameter is no less than that of the 

hotplate itself.

!

 Before using the hotplates for the first time, you should heat 

them at maximum temperature for approximately 4 minutes, 

without placing any pans on them. During this initial stage, their 

protective coating hardens and reaches its maximum resistance.
