must be replaced (supplied with the appliance).

The gas feed connector to the appliance is a threaded,

male 1/2" connector for round gas pipe.

Gas Connection to Flexible Steel Pipe

The gas feed connector to the appliance is a threaded,

male 1/2" connector for round gas pipe. Only use pipes,

tubes and gaskets that comply with current safety codes.

The maximum length of the flexible pipes must not exceed

2000 mm. Once the connection has been made, ensure

that the flexible metal tube does not touch any moving

parts and is not crushed.

Check the Seal

Once the appliance has been installed, make sure all the

connections are properly sealed, using a soapy water

solution. Never use a flame.

Electrical Connection

The cooktops fitted with a tripolar electrical supply cord

are designed to be be used with alternating current

according to the indications on the rating plate located

under the cooktop. The earthing wire can be identified by

its yellow-green colour.

In the case of installation over a built-in electric oven,

the electrical connections for the cooktop and oven

should be independent, not only for safety purposes, but

also to facilitate removal of one or both in the future.

Electrical Connection for Gas Cooktop

Fit the supply cord with a standard plug for the demand

rate indicated on the rating plate or connect it directly to

the electrical mains. In the latter case, a single pole switch

must be placed between the appliance and the mains,

with a minimum opening between the contacts of 3 mm in

compliance with current safety codes (the earthing wire

must not be interrupted by the switch). The power supply

cord must be positioned so that it does not reach a tem-

perature in excess of 50°C above room temperature at

any point.

Before making the actual connection, make sure that:

• The fuse and electrical system can withstand the load

required by the appliance;

• That the electrical supply system is equiped with an

efficient earth hook-up according to the norms and

regulations prescribed by law;

• That the plug or switch is easily accessible.

Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in

accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow - Earth

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not

correspond with the coloured markings identifying the

terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect the Green & Yellow wire to the terminal marked

“E” or or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.

Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked “L” or

coloured Red.

Connect the Blue wire to the terminal marked “N” or

coloured Black.

Adapting the Cooktop for Different Types of Gas

To adapt the cooktop to a different type of gas than that

for which it was designed, (see the sticker under the hob

or on the packaging), the burner nozzles must be changed,

as follows:

• Remove the pan supports and slide the burners out of

the cooktop.

• Unscrew the nozzles using a 7mm socket wrench and

replace them with those for the new type of gas. (See

table 1, “Burner and Nozzle Specifications”).

• Reassemble the parts following the instructions in

reverse order.

• 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.

If the gas pressure is different than that prescribed, a

pressure regulator must be installed at the source, in

compliance with national standards governing the use of

piped gas regulators.

Regulation of Air Supply to the Burner

The burners do not need a primary air regulator.

Minimum Regulation

• Turn the gas valve to minimum.

• Remove the knob and turn the regulator screw

(positioned either on the side of the top or inside the

shaft) clockwise until the flame becomes small but

regular.

N.B.: In the case of liquid gas, the regulation screw must

be fully screwed in (clockwise).

• Make sure that, when the knob is turned rapidly high

to low, the flame does not go out.

• In the event of a malfunction on appliances with the

security device (thermocouple) when the gas supply

is set at minimum, increase the minimum supply levels

using the regulator screw.

Once the adjustment has been made, apply sealing wax,

or a suitable substitute, to the old seals on the by-pass.
