In the event the cooktop is not installed above a built-in oven, a wood panel must be inserted as insulation. This panel must be placed at least 20 mm from the bottom of the cooktop itself.

Ventilation

When installing the cooktop above a built-in oven, the oven should be placed on two wooden strips; in the case of a joining cabinet surface, remember to leave a space of at least 45 x 560 mm at the back (see picture).

The hob can only be installed above built-in ovens provided with cooling ventilation.

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

GB

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 temperature in excess of 50°C above room temperature at any point.

The installer must ensure that the correct electrical connection has been made and that it is compliant with safety regulations.

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.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow Blue

Brown

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.

The cable must not be bent or compressed.

The cable must be checked regularly and replaced by authorised technicians only (see Assistance).

The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.

Gas Connection

GB

The cooktop should be connected to the gas supply by an authorized installer. During installation of this product it is essential to fit an approved gas tap to isolate the supply from the appliance for the convenience of any subsequent removal or servicing. Connection of the appliance to the gas mains or liquid gas tanks must be carried out according to the safety standards currently in force, and only after it is ascertained that it is suitable for the type of gas to be used. If not, follow the instructions indicated in the section entitled, “Adapting the Cooktop for Different Types of Gas”. If the cooktop is to be connected to tanks containing liquid gas, use pressure regulators that comply with current safety standards.

To insure that the appliance operates safety, the gas is regulated correctly and your appliance lasts over time, make sure that gas pressure levels comply with the indications given in Table 1, “Nozzle and Burner Specifications”.

Gas Connection to Non-flexible Pipe

(copper or steel)

Connection to the gas source must be done in such a way as to not create any stress points at any part of the appliance.

The appliance is fitted with an adjustable, "L" shaped connector and a gasket for the attachment to the gas supply. Should this connector have to be turned, the gasket 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.

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:

1.Remove the pan supports and slide the burners out of the cooktop.

2.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”).

3.Reassemble the parts following the instructions in reverse order.

4.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.

• Regulation of Air Supply to the Burner

The burners do not need a primary air regulator.

• Minimum Regulation

1.Turn the gas valve to minimum.

2.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.

3.Make sure that, when the knob is turned rapidly high to low, the flame does not go out.

4.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.

In the case of liquid gas, the regulation screw must be fully screwed in (clockwise).

Once the adjustment has been made, apply sealing wax, or a suitable substitute, to the old seals on the by-pass.
