should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person, in accordance with the current
regulations.

The manufacturer declines any liability should these
safety measures not be observed.
This hob is designed to be connected to a 230-240V 50Hz
AC electrical supply.
Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply
voltage is the same as that indicated on the hob rating
plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the
hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of this book.
The hob is supplied without supply cord. A 3 core flexible
supply cord must be fitted, in accordance with the
specification given in the relevant tables.
1) Remove the mains terminal cover plate from
the underside of the hob, to expose the mains
terminal block.
2) Loosen the two cable clamp screws and lift
the top section of the clamp enough to allow
the cable to be passed through.
3) Connect the red (live) wire to the terminal which
is marked with the number 1.
4) Connect the black (neutral) wire to the terminal
which is marked with the number 4.
5) After fitting a green or yellow/green sleeve over
the bare copper wire (earth wire), connect the
exposed end to the terminal which is marked
with the earth symbol or with the number 5.
NOTE:
The earth wire should be about 2 cm. longer
than the live and neutral wires.
6) Secure the cable by means of the clamp
screws and refit the terminal block cover.
The hob should be conncted to a double pole switch
with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch
contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in
compliance with the current electric regulations. The
switch should be sited within 2m of the hob and be easily
accessible upon completion of the installation.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth
cable at any point.
