Electrical connection

The electrical connection for the hob and for any built-

in oven must be carried out separately, both for safety
purposes and to make extracting the oven easier.

Single-phase connection

The hob is equipped with a pre-connected electricity supply
cable, which is designed for single-phase connection.
Connect the wires in accordance with the instructions given
in the following table and diagrams:

Other types of connection

If the mains supply corresponds with one of the following:

Voltage and mains frequency

• 400V - 2+N ~ 50/60 Hz
• 220-240V 3 ~ 50/60 Hz
Separate the wires and connect them in accordance with
the instructions given in the following table and diagrams:

Connecting the electricity supply cable to the mains

If the appliance is being connected directly to the electricity
mains an omnipolar switch must be installed with a minimum
opening of 3 mm between contacts.

The installer must ensure that the correct electrical

connection has been made and that it is fully compliant
with safety regulations.

Fix the hob as follows:

1. Use short flat-bottomed screws to fix the 4 alignment
springs in the holes provided at the central point of each
side of the hob.
2. Place the hob in the cavity, make sure it is in a central
position and push down on the whole perimeter until the
hob is stuck to the supporting surface.

The screws for the alignment springs must remain

accessible.

In order to adhere to safety standards, the appliance

must not come into contact with electrical parts once it
has been installed.

All parts which ensure the safe operation of the

appliance must not be removable without the aid of a tool.

Start-up and use

The glue applied on the gaskets leaves traces of grease

on the glass. Before using the appliance, we recommend
you remove these with a special non-abrasive cleaning
product. During the first few hours of use there may be a
smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly.

A few seconds after the hob is connected to the electricity

supply, a buzzer will sound. The hob may now be switched
on.

Types of noise during normal hob operation:

• Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that

make up the induction element and the pot; it is
generated by the electromagnetic field required for
heating and increases as the power of the induction
element increases.

• Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating

zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water
is placed into the pot.

• Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the

bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents
caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be
more or less intense depending on the material making
up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot
dimensions increase.

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 located
on the appliance itself.

• The voltage falls within the range of 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.

The manufacturer declines any liability should these

safety measures not be observed.

Do not remove or replace the power supply cable for any

reason. Its removal or replacement will void the warranty
and the CE marking. INDESIT does not assume liability for
accidents or damage arising from replacement/removal
of the original power supply cable. Replacement can only
be accepted when carried out by personnel authorised
by INDESIT and using an original spare part.
