This appliance must be installed by an authorised person in accordance with this instruction manual, AS/NZS 5601.1 – Gas installations
(installation

and pipe sizing), local gas fitting regulations, local electrical regulations, Building Code of Australia and any other government authority.

! Before operating your new appliance please read this
instruction booklet carefully. It contains important information
for safe use, installation and care of the appliance.

! Please keep these operating instructions for future
reference. Pass them on to possible new owners of the
appliance.

Positioning

! Keep packaging material out of the reach of children. It
can become a choking or suffocation hazard (see
Precautions and tips).

! The appliance must be installed by a qualified professional
according to the instructions provided. Incorrect installation
may cause harm to people and animals or may damage
property.

! This unit may be installed and used only in permanently
ventilated rooms

The following requirements must be

• The room must be equipped with an air extraction system
that expels any combustion fumes. This may consist of a
hood or an electric fan that automatically starts each time
the appliance is switched on.

observed:

Fitting the appliance

Gas inlet is located at the rear left hand side 25mm in from the rear edge.

• The installation cavity should have the dimensions
indicated in the figure. Fastening hooks are provided,
allowing you to fasten the hob to tops that are between
20 and 40 mm thick. To ensure the hob is securely
fastened to the top, we recommend you use all the
hooks provided.

55

mm

• The room must also allow proper air circulation, as air is
needed for combustion to occur normally. The flow of air
must not be less than 2 m

3

/h per kW of installed power.
The air circulation system may
take air directly from the outside
by means of a pipe with an inner
cross section of at least 100 cm
the opening must not be
vulnerable to any type of
blockages.

The system can also provide the
air needed for combustion
indirectly, i.e. from adjacent rooms
fitted with air circulation tubes as
described above. However, these
rooms must not be communal
rooms, bedrooms or rooms that
may present a fire hazard.

• Where the hob is not installed over a built-in oven, a
wooden panel must be installed as insulation. This
must be placed at a distance of 40 mm from
the lower part of the hob.

Ventilation

To ensure adequate ventilation, the back panel of the
cabinet must be removed. It is advisable to install the
oven so that it rests on two strips of wood, or on a
completely flat surface with an opening of at least 45 x
560 mm (see diagrams).

Connecting the supply cable to the mains

Install a standardised plug corresponding to the load
indicated on the data plate.
The appliance must be directly connected to the mains using
an omnipolar circuit-breaker with a minimum contact opening
of 3 mm installed between the appliance and the mains. The
circuit-breaker must be suitable for the charge indicated

and must comply with current electrical regulations (the
earthing wire must not be interrupted by the circuit-breaker).
The supply cable must not come into contact with surfaces
with temperatures higher than 50°C.

! The installer must ensure that the correct electrical
connection has been made and that it is compliant with
safety regulations.
Before connecting to the power supply, make sure that:

• The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with
the law.

• The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated on the data plate.

• The voltage is in the range between the values indicated
on the data plate.

• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If
the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask an
authorised technician to replace it. Do not use extension
cords or multiple sockets.

! Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply
cable and the electrical socket must be easily accessible.

! 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 hob can only be installed above built-in ovens with a
cooling ventilation system.

Electrical connection

Hobs equipped with a three-pole power supply cable are
designed to operate with alternating current at the voltage
and frequency indicated on the data plate (this is located
on the lower part of the appliance). The earth wire in the
cable has a green and yellow cover. If the appliance is to
be installed above a built-in electric oven, the electrical
connection of the hob and the oven must be carried out
separately, both for electrical safety purposes and to
make extracting the oven easier.

This appliance is suitable for connection with rigid pipe or flexible hose.
The isolating manual shut-off valve connection point must be accessible when
appliance is installed. Natural Gas: the supplied regulator must be fitted to
the appliance inlet connection.

! Check that the pressure of the gas supply is consistent
with the values indicated in Table 1 (“Burner and nozzle
specifications”). This will ensure the safe operation and
longevity of your appliance while maintaining efficient
energy consumption.

Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)

! Connection to the gas system must be carried out in
such a way as not to place any strain of any kind on the
appliance.
There is an adjustable L-shaped pipe fitting on the
appliance supply ramp and this is fitted with a seal in
order to prevent leaks. The seal must always be replaced
after rotating the pipe fitting (seal provided with
appliance). The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2
gas cylindrical male attachment.
