Wiring diagram
4. Gas Connection
Install in accordance with relevant gas standards and/or codes of practice applicable.
Connect the elbow fitting to the appliance gas manifold connection, and check that seals between the elbow and
manifold connection are in place and in good condition.
! For Natural gas: connect the natural gas appliance regulator (pictured opposite) with integral test point using
approved gas thread tape or compound to the elbow fitting.
! For Universal LPG: change the natural gas regulator to LPG set by adjusts the
spring to make sure the outlet pressure be set at 2.75kPa.
Ensure the supply connection point, test point and natural gas regulator adjustment
screw (for Natural gas installation) are accessible for testing and/or adjustment with the
hotplate in the installed position.
Where a flexible hose assembly is used, ensure it is approved to
AS/NZS 1869, Class B. Any hose assembly used must be restrained
from accidental contact with the flue outlet of an under bench oven.
This hose assembly shall be suitable for connection to a fixed
consumer piping outlet located as follows:
Hotplates at a point 800 mm to 850 mm above the floor and in the
region outside the width of the appliance to a distance of 250 mm.
After connecting to gas, check for leaks using soapy solution, never a
naked flame.
Inlet connection region for flexible hose
Fit the duplicate data plate (supplied in separate bag) on a surface adjacent to the hotplate, for example, the
inside of the cupboard door so it is clearly visible for any service technician.
SETTING THE GAS PRESSURE:
Fit a manometer with a 6 mm rubber hose to the test point on the regulator (for natural gas).
Light Triple Ring and Auxiliary burner on and adjust test point pressure to 1.00 kPa. Turn the two burners off and
on again and recheck the pressure is same as set previously or adjust as required.
TEST FOR CORRECT OPERATION:
After installation and adjusting burner pressure using test point, each burner ignition and operation must be
tested individually and with all burners operating. This testing must be done by the installer before leaving.

Description Explanation
These show which zone is under control.
Zone indicators
Flame power
The hotplates are fitted with mains powered electronic spark ignitors, so must be connected to mains power
supply (i.e. nominal 220~240 V ac) to operate. If power is not available, the hotplate will still work but the burners
will have to be lit with a match or similar.
Depressing the gas control knob of any burner will activate the spark ignition for all burners. To light the burner,
turn the gas control knob to the High Flame setting of the burner to be lit, while at the same time depressing the
gas control knob to activate the spark ignition.
Once the burner is alight continue to depress the gas control knob for 5 – 10 seconds to allow the flame
safeguard to activate. If when you release the gas control knob, the burner flame goes out the flame safeguard
has not heated up enough so repeat the ignition procedure after waiting 1 minute for gas to disperse. If problems
with burner lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions.
If power is not available, light a match or similar, then turn the gas control knob for the burner to be lit, to the
High Flame setting. Once again if problems with burner lighting persist, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING
section of these instructions.
Flame power of the zones, is the lowest and
is the highest.
GH614AS-G2CI, GH614BS-G2CI
When burner lights, adjust desired flame height. On finishing, turn control knob to off position marked with a
black DOT.
BURNER AND UTENSIL CHOICE
The maximum utensil (pan) diameters in millimeters
(mm) for each burner are:
1. For Natural Gas hotplates
Auxiliary (small) and Semi-Rapid (medium) =
195 mm
Rapid (large) = 230 mm
Triple ring (wok) = 270 mm
2. For Universal LPG hotplates
Auxiliary (small), Semi-Rapid (medium) and
Rapid (large) = 195 mm
Triple ring (wok) = 230 mm
The minimum utensil (pan) diameters in millimeters
(mm) for each burner are:
Auxiliary (small) = 80 mm
and Semi-Rapid (medium) = 140 mm
Rapid (large) and Triple ring (wok) = 195 mm
For best efficiency and to ensure utensil handle does
not overheat, place the utensil centrally on the burner
and adjust the flame height so all the flame remains
under the utensil.

Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out with
the appliance cold especially when cleaning the
enameled parts. Avoid leaving alkaline or acid
substances(lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces.
STAINLESS STEEL
The stainless steel hob of the hotplate must be
cleaned regularly (e.g. weekly) to ensure long
life expectancy of the hotplate.
Ensure hotplate has cooled. Wash down with warm
soapy water and rinse with clean water.
Dry with a clean soft cloth. A specialized stainless
steel cleaning fluid may be used.
NOTE: Ensure that wiping is done along with the
grain of the stainless steel to prevent any unsightly
crisscross scratching patterns from appearing.
TRIVETS (UTENSIL SUPPORTS)
Enameled parts must only be washed with a sponge
and soapy water or with non-abrasive products. Rinse
with clean water. Dry with a clean soft cloth.
BURNERS
Remove trivets from
hob. Ensure burners
are cool. Remove the
burners enameled
cap (C) and aluminum
burner crown (F).
Wash down with
warm soapy water
and rinse with clean
water. Dry with a
clean soft cloth.
Note: S: Ignition pin T: Thermocouple
Use a cotton bud, tooth brush, or some other item to
clean out any incrustations or dirt from the four holes
marked(H)
The spark gas is 4-6mm.
Replace burners and ensure they are correctly
repositioned over the igniter (S) and thermocouple (T).
The igniter (S) must be clean for trouble free sparking.
Test burner ignition and burner flame for correct
operation.
The Triple Ring (Wok) burner (diagrams below) does
not fit over the igniter or thermocouple but must be
placed on its supports. If burner is placed correctly it
will not rotate on its supports.
The surface of hob, Ignition Pin(S), Thermocouple
(T) and burners need to be cleaned after each time
they are used with warm soapy water, rinsed and
then dried well to keep them in good condition.
Never clean when the top and components are still
warm. Do not use metal or abrasive pads, abrasive
powders or corrosive spray products. Never leave
vinegar, coffee, milk, salty water, lemon or tomato
juice for any length of time on the surfaces.
• To replace gas and electrical components, that
are lodged inside the hob, it is enough to
remove the work top unscrewing the fixing
screws of the burners
• Replace the seal each time you change a tap in
order to guarantee a perfect tightness between
body and rail.
