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.
