Electrical connection
Ovens with a three-pole power supply cable are designed
to operate with alternated current at the supply frequency
and voltage indicated on the data plate (at the bottom of
the oven dashboard). The earthing conductor of the cable
is the yellow-green conductor.
Two types of connection are provided:

Connection n° 1
Connecting the power supply cable to the mains.
Fit a normalized plug to the cable, which corresponds to
the load indicated on the data plate; if the appliance is
connected directly to the mains, an omnipolar circuit-
breaker with a minimum opening of 3 mm between the
contacts, suitable for the load indicated and complying
with current directives, must be installed between the
appliance and the mains (the earthing wire must not be
interrupted by the circuit-breaker). The power supply cable
must be positioned so that it does not exceed room tem-
perature by 50°C at any point of its length. Before making
the connection check that:

the circuit breakers or fuses of the home system can
support appliance load (see data plate);

the power supply system has an efficient earthing
connection which complies with the provisions of current
regulations and the law;

there is easy access to the socket or the omnipolar
circuit-breaker once the cooker has been installed.

N.B.: do not use reducers, adapters or shunts as these
could cause heating or burning.

Connection n° 2
Disposing of the plug.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make
the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted
into a socket. Instructions for connecting cable to an alter-
native plug:
Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow

If the colours of the wires in the mains lead do not
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the

$

or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.

Connect Blue wire to terminal marked “N” or coloured Black.
If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a
13 amp fuse.
A 15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp fuse, either
in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board.If you are
in any doubt about the electrical supply to your machine,
consult a qualified electrician before use.
