Commissioning

When the hob has been fully installed it will be
necessary to check the minimum flame setting. To do
this, follow the procedure below.

- Turn the gas tap to the MAX position and ignite.

- Set the gas tap to the MIN flame position then turn
the control knob from MIN to MAX several times.
If the flame is unstable or is extinguished follow the
procedure below.

Procedure:

Re-ignite the burner and set to MIN.

F

Remove the control knob, insert a thin
bladed screwdriver down the hole in the
front panel and turn the adjustment screw
until the flame is steady and does not
extinguish, when the knob is turned from
MIN to MAX. Repeat this procedure for all
burners.

Technical Maintenance

Check at regular intervals the condition and
serviceability of the gas connection hose and pressure
regulator, if any is fitted; in case of malfunction, do
not repair but replace the whole faulty part.

To ensure a smooth and safe operation, it is necessary
to periodically grease the gas taps.

Electrical connections

Any electrical work required to install this
appliance should be carried out by a
qualified electrician or competent person,
in accordance with the current regulations.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED.

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

This appliance is designed to be connected
to a 230 V 50Hz AC electrical supply.

Before the appliance is connected:

1) check that the main fuse and the domestic installation
can support the load (see the rating label);

2) check that the power supply is properly earthed in
compliance with the current rules;

3) check the socket or the double pole switch used for
the electrical connection can be easily reached with
the appliance built in the forniture unit. Before
switching on, make sure the electricity supply
voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance
rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom
of the hob. A copy is attached on the back cover of
this book.

The appliance is supplied with a 3 core flexible
supply cord incorporating a plug. Connect the plug to
an adequate socket.

Permanent Connection

In the case of a permanent connection, it is necessary
that you install a double pole switch between the
appliance and the electricity supply (mains), with a
minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts
and of a type suitable for the required load in
compliance with the current electric regulations.

The switch must not break the yellow and green earth
cable at any point.

Ensure that the hob supply cord does not
come into contact with surfaces with
temperatures higher than 50 deg. C.

Fitting the hob to the worktop

Carry out the building in of the hob as follows:

 put the seals supplied with the hob, on the

F

edges of the cut out, as shown in the diagram,
taking care that the seals meet without
overlapping;

 place the hob in the cut out, taking care that it

is centred;

 fix the hob with the relevant fixing clamps

and screws, as shown in the diagram. When
the screws have been tightened, the excess
seal can be removed.

The edge of the hob forms a double seal which
prevents the ingress of liquids.

Building In

Building over a cupboard or drawer

If the hob is to be installed above a cupboard or
drawer it will be necessary to fit a heat resistant board
below the base of the hob on the underside of the
work surface.

Building over a kitchen unit with door

Proper arrangements must be taken in designing the
furniture unit, in order to avoid any contact with the
bottom of the hob which can be heated when it is
operated. The recommended solution is shown in
diagram 1.
The panel fitted under the hob ("a") should be easily
removable to allow easy access if technical assistance
is needed. The space behind the kitchen unit ("b") can
be used for connections.

Building over a kitchen unit with oven

If the hob is built into a kitchen unit with an oven
underneath, the recess must have the dimensions
shown in diagrams 2 and 3, and should also incorpo­rate suitable oven crosspiece supports to ensure an
efficient cooling air circulation.
Diagrams 4 and 5 give two building-in examples.

The electric connection of the hob and the
oven should be carried out separately, for
electrical safety reasons to permit easy
extraction of the oven from the front part of
the kitchen unit.
