Gas supply connection

• Check that the appliance is set for the type of gas available

and then connect it to the mains gas piping or the gas

cylinder in compliance with current regulations and

standards.

• This appliance is designed and set to work with the gas

indicated on the label situated on the actual hob. If the

gas supply is other than the type for which the appliance

has been set, proceed with replacing the corresponding

nozzles (provided), following instructions given in the

paragraph “Adaptation to different types of gas”.

• For trouble-free operation, suitable use of energy and

longer life of the appliance, make sure that the supply

pressure complies with the values indicated in the table

1 "burners and nozzles specifications, otherwise install

a special pressure regulator on the supply pipe in

compliance with current standards and regulations.

• Connect in such a way that the appliance is subjected to

no strain whatsoever.

Either a rigid metal pipe with fittings in compliance with the

standards in force must be used for connecting to the nipple

union (threaded ½"G male fitting) situated at the rear of

the appliance to the right (fig.7), or flexible steel pipe in

compliance with the standards in force, which must not

exceed 2000 mm in length.

Should it be necessary to turn the fitting, the gasket

(supplied with the appliance) must be replaced. Upon

completion of installation, check the gas circuit, the internal

connections and the taps for leaks using a soapy solution

(never a flame).

Also check that the connecting pipe cannot come into

contact with moving parts which could damage or crush it.

Make sure that the natural gas pipe is adequate for a

sufficient supply to the appliance when all the burners are

lit

Important: A pressure regulator, in compliance with the

standards in force, must be inserted when connecting to a

liquid gas supply (in a cylinder).

Adaptation to a different type of gas

If the hob is to be converted for use with a type of gas

other than that for which it was set in the factory (indicated

on the label to be found on the hob), the burner nozzles

should be replaced as follows:

•Remove the pan supports and the burners.

•Unscrew the nozzles “A” (fig.8) using a 7 mm socket

wrench and replace them with the ones which have a

diameter suitable for the type of gas to be used,

according to the table 1 "burners and nozzles

specifications).

• On completing the operation, replace the old rating label

with the one showing the new type of gas; the sticker is

available from our Service Centres.

Adjusting the low flame

• Put the tap to the low flame position (the burner should

be lit);

•Remove the tap knob (fig.9) and turn the adjusting screw,

situated to the side of the tap stem, using a screwdriver

(loosening the screw increases the height of the flame,

tightening decreases it).

note: the adjusting screw must be fully screwed down

for liquid gas.

• Having obtained the low flame setting required and with

the burner lit, abruptly change the position of the knob

several times from minimum to maximum and vice ver-

sa and check that the flame does not go out.

• Refit the tap knobs

If an electric fan is used for extracting the combustion

products, the ventilation aperture must be increased in

relation to its maximum performance. The electric fan

should have a sufficient capacity to guarantee an hourly

exchange of air equal to 3-5 times the volume of the kitchen.

Prolonged, intensive use of the appliance may require extra

ventilation, e.g. an open window or a more efficient

ventilation system by increasing the extraction power of

the electric fan if installed. Liquid petroleum gas descends

towards the floor as it is heavier than air. Apertures in the

outside walls in rooms containing LPG cylinders should

therefore be at floor level, in order to allow any gas from

leaks to be expelled. Do not store LPG cylinders (even

when empty) in basements/rooms below ground level; it is

advisable to keep only the cylinder in use in the room at

any one time and connected far from heat sources which

could raise its temperature to above 50°C.

THE APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

The hob is designed to work with alternating current at the

supply voltage and frequency indicated on the rating plate

(situated under the hob or at the end of the instruction

booklet). Make sure that the local supply voltage

corresponds to the voltage indicated on the rating plate.

Connecting the supply cable to the mains electricity

supply

The supply cable must be in such a position that no part of

it can reach a temperature of 50 °C above room temperature.

For installation above a built-under oven, the hob and the

oven must be connected separately to the electricity supply

both for safety reasons and for easy removal of the oven if

necessary. Do not use adapters or shunts as they could

cause heating or burning. Before connecting to the power

supply, make sure that:

• the limiter valve and the domestic system can withstand

the load from the appliance (see rating plate);
