Setup and Installation

The ROSIERES RH 64CT 2 is a built-in vitroceramic hob designed for integration into a kitchen countertop. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure safety and proper functionality.

Pre-Installation Checks:

• Verify that the electrical supply in your home matches the hob's requirements (240 Volts, 6500 Watts).

3. Carefully lower the hob into the cutout, ensuring it sits flush with the countertop.
4. Connect the hob to the main electrical supply. This connection must be performed by a qualified electrician.
