Step 1
The choice of electric stoves today is very large. If you wish, you can choose a narrow stove for a small kitchen. For those who do not want to spend a lot of time cleaning, a stove with a glass ceramic surface is suitable. Glass ceramics looks very good, does not require any effort when cleaning, and conducts heat well. If you usually cook food using non-standard dishes, get a stove with cast iron burners.
Step 2
So, the electric stove has been selected, purchased and delivered to your apartment. Unpack it carefully. Examine the stove for possible damage. Pay attention to the integrity of the coating, make sure there are no scratches or chips. Check the completeness of the product, referring to the enclosed instruction manual.
Step 3
Prepare a place for placing the electric stove. It is necessary to choose a place in the kitchen space, taking into account the requirements for convenience when using the stove. For example, the cutting table and kitchen sink should be in close proximity to an electric stove. This saves time and effort when preparing food and handling used utensils.
Step 4
The installed electric stove must stand firmly, not wobble or vibrate. To adjust the position of the stove, there are special built-in elements (legs) that allow you to set the electric stove in a horizontal position. If necessary, use a building level to ensure horizontal alignment.
Step 5
The most important thing during installation is to connect the stove to the electrical network. The connection must be made with a cable of appropriate power. When wiring the connection, use the circuit diagram supplied with the device. Please note that the electric stove can be one-, two- or three-phase. This feature should also be taken into account when connecting. Every contact and every connection must be tested for the possibility of a short circuit.
Step 6
After completing all the work, the device is tested, which will show the readiness of the electric stove for operation.
Step 7
If you are not confident in your abilities, it is better to entrust the connection of the electric stove to professionals. Your safety will largely depend on the correct installation of the stove and its competent connection.
