ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS The electrical connection must be made before connecting the appliance power cable to the electricity supply.

Specifically, installation must be carried out in compliance with the regulations of the local electricity company.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS • Use pots and pans with base diameter equal to the diameter of the cooking zone or slightly larger. • Only use flat-bottomed pots and pans. • If possible, keep pot lids on when cooking. • Cook vegetables, potatoes, etc. with the minimum amount of water in order to reduce cooking time. • A pressure cooker allows you to achieve additional savings in power and time.
