Connecting to the Mains

Terminal

Warning: This appliance must be

earthed.

We recommend you use a new length of 6mm

2

twin core and earthed cable to ensure your

safety.

Make connection as shown in Fig.11 by

proceeding as follows:-

Preform wires to the appropriate shape to suit

fitting into the mains terminal block.

Strip inner insulation on wires using

wirestrippers.

Twist the bared wires using pliers.

Cut bared wires 10mm away from the end of

the inner insulation. Where uninsulated Earth

wires are used ensure they are suitably sheathed

to leave 10mm bare wire fit into the terminal.

Clamp bare wires into the relevant terminal and

check they are held by tugging each one in turn.

Clamp the mains cable securely ensuring 5mm of

the outer insulation is inside the terminal block

and that the wires are not taught but not so

slack as to cause any fouling. See Fig. 11.

Connect the remaining end of the mains cable to

the cooker point / junction box.

Place fuse / miniature circuit breaker in circuit

and switch on at mains.

Checking Electrical
Connections

Correct electrical connection can be confirmed
when switching on the appliance as the timer

will be flashing.

Note: House Circuit

Earth leakage / continuity tests must be carried out

before the appliance is connected to the mains
supply and re-checked after fitting.

Connecting to a Hob or
Cooker Point

Either follow in general terms the instructions

for connecting to the terminal block or refer to
the hob suppliers installation instructions.

Feed the cable through the cabinet and
arrange to route the cable away from

the appliance, which may become hot.
