USE
Notes:
Use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed.
Th
room must therefore be well ventilated by keeping the natural air vents clear (fig.
3)
and by activatin
the mechanicalaeration device (suction hood or electric fan fig.
4
and fig.
5).
Intensive and lengthy use of the appliance may require additional ventilation. This can
be
achieved b
opening a window or by increasing the power of the mechanical exhausting system if installed.
Abnormal Operation:
Any of the following are considered to
be
abnormal operation and may require servicing:
-
Yellow tipping of the hob burner flame.
-
Sooting up of cooking utensils.
-
Burners not igniting properly.
-
Burners failing to remain alight.
-
Burners extinguished by cupboard doors.
-
Gas valves which are difficult to turn.

authorised personnel and in accordance with the
regulations of the Gas
Installation Code AG601
and Electricity authorities.
h
The wall and bench surfaces must be capable of
sustaining temperatures of
75
degrees Celsius.
All laminates, fixing adhesive and surfacing
materials should be certified suitable for this
temperature.
Refer to figures
9
-
10 for required clearances
around appliance.
NOTE
1:
fire resistant material (eg ceramic tiles) is required to
450 mm above burner top if wall or vertical structures
are within
200
mm from burner.
NOTE
2:
rangehood and exhaust system are not permitted
within
600
mm above burner tops.
4)
INSTALLING THE HOT PLATE
Check that the appliance is in a good condition after
having removed the outer packaging and internal
wrappings from around the various loose parts. In
case of doubt, do not use the appliance and contact
qualified personnel.
Never leave the packacing materials (cardboard,
bags, polystyrene foam, nails, etc.) withinÂchildren's reach since they could become
potential sources of danger.
The measurements of the opening made in the top
of the modular cabinet and into which the hot plate
will be installed are indicated in either fig. 9 and 10.
Always comply with the measurements given for
the hole into wich the appliance will be recessed
(see fig. 9-1
0
and 11).
The appliance belongs to class 3 and is
therefore subject to all the provisions
established by the provisions governing such
appliances.
5)
FIXING THE HOT PLATE
The hot plate has a special seal which prevents liquid
from infiltrating into the cabinet. Strictly comply with
the following instructions in order to correctly apply
this seal:
-
Detach the seals from their backing, checking that
the transparent protection still adheres to the seal
itself.
-
Overturn the hot plate and correctly position seal
"E
(fig.
12)
on top of the upturned edge of the
hotplate flat with the outer side of the strip in line
with the external perimeter of the top, make
attention don't sink the seal between the space
bottomltop rim.
-
Evenly and securely fix the seal to the hot plate,
pressing it in place with the fingers.
-
Fix the hob with the proper brackets

INSTALLATION
6)
GAS CONNECTION
The gas connection is located in the rear and on the
underside of the appliance 100 mm from the right
hand side.
Natural Gas
Both Natural and Town Gas installations require the
connection of a gas regulator at the appliance. This
regulator is supplied with the appliance on
purchase.
Assemble the regulator (noting the gas flow
direction) and transition pieces (supplied with the
appliance), in accordance with figure 14.
The transition piece on the supply side of the
regulator must be provided by the installer.
Liquified Petroleum Gas
In a LPG installation the gas regulation is made at
the gas cylinder and regulation at the appliance is
not required. To connect supply to the appliance
use transition pieces as shown in figure 15. These
pieces are supplied with the appliance on purchase.
WARNING:
THE BURNER FLAME MUST BE ADJUSTED BY
THE INSTALLER.
FAULTY INSTALLATION WILL NOT BE
COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

electricity main before making any adjustments.
All seals must be replaced by the technician at
the end of any adjustments or regulations.
Our burners do not require primary air
adjustment
a) Data Label
The Data Label is located on the underside of the
hotplate.
A
duplicate Data Label is supplied to adhere
in an accessible area next to the hotplate. This
hotplate is suitable for Natural Gas and Universal
LPG; ensure that the available gas supply matches
the Data Label.
b) Before Leaving
Check that there are no gas leaks, but do not use a
naked flame to detect gas leaks. Ignite all burners to
ensure correct operation of gas valves, burners,
ignition and if fitted, flame failure valves. Turn gas
taps to low flame position and observe stability of the
flame. When satisfied with the hotplate, please
instruct the user on the correct method of operation.
In case the appliance falls to operate correctly after
all checks have been carried out, refer to the
authorised
service provider in your area.

TAPS
Our taps are suitable for all the gas, they are male
conical
type at one way.
"Reduced rate" adjustment
-
Switch on the burner and turn the relative knob to
the "Reduced rate" position (small flame fig. 1).
-
Remove knob
"M
(fig. 19) of the tap, which is simply

-
Insert a small screwdriver
"D"
into hole
"C"
(fig. 19)
and turn the throttle screw to the nght or left until the
burner flame has been adequately regulated to the
"Reduced rate" position.
Check that the flame does not go out when the knob
is sharply
sw~tched from the "Full on" to the "Reduced
rate" position.
It is understood that only burners operating with
Natural gas should be subjected to the above
mentioned adjustments.
The
s&ew must be fully
locked when the burners operafe with Liquid gas.

COMPONENTS REPLACEMENT
NOTE:
BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE REQUIRING
REPLACEMENT OF
A
COMPONENT IS
UNDERTAKEN ENSURE THAT THE
ELECTRICAL LEAD HAS BEEN ISOLATED AND
REMOVED FROM THE POWER POINT.
To replace the components fit inside the hob is
necessary to take off the pan supports and the
burners from the upper part of the working table, then
unscrew the
burner fixing screws
"V"
(fig. 21) and the
control knobs, fixed by a simple pressure, in order to
take off the working table.
After having carried out the above listed operat~ons,
the burners (fig. 22), taps (fig. 23) and electrical
components can all be replaced (fig. 24).
It is advisable to change seal
"D"
each time a tap is
changed in order to ensure a perfect tightness.
Greasing the taps (see fig.
25
-
-26)
If a tap becomes stiff to operate, it must
immediately greased in compliance with
1
following instructions:
-
Remove the tap.
-
Clean the cone and its housing using a cl~
soaked in cilluent.
-
Lightly spread the cone with the relative grease.
-
Fit the cone back in place, operate it several tin
and then remove it again. Eliminate any excc
grease and check that the gas ducts have
