Gas Connection
Assembly of gas supply and leakage check
The connection of the appliance should be performed
in accordance with local and international standards
and regulations applicable.
First check what type of gas is installed on the cooker.
This information is given by a sticker on the back of
the cooker. You can find the information related to
appropriate gas types and appropriate gas injectors on
technical data table.
Check that the feeding gas pressure is compliant with
values on the technical data table, to be able to get the
most efficiency and to ensure the least consumption.
If the pressure of used gas is different than these values
stated or not stable in your area, it may be required to
assemble an available pressure regulator on the gas
inlet. It is certainly required to contact to the authorized
service to make these adjustments.
The points that must be checked during
flexible hose assembly
If the gas connection is made by a flexible hose that is
fixed on the gas inlet of appliance, it must be fixed by a
pipe collar as well.
Connect your appliance with a short and durable
hose that is as close as possible to the gas source. The
hose’s permitted maximum lenght is 1.5m. The hose
that brings gas to the appliance must be changed once
a year for your safety.
The hose must be kept clear from areas that may heat
up to temperatures in excess of 900°C. The hose
must not be ruptured, bent or folded. It must be kept
clear of sharp corners, moving things, and should not
be defective. Before assembly, it must be checked
whether there is any production defect.
As gas is turned on, all connection parts and hose must
be checked with soapy water or leakage fluids. No
bubble should appear. If there are bubbles, check the
connection joint and redo the test. Do not use naked
flame to check gas leakage. All metal components
used during gas connection must be clear of rust. Also
check the expiry dates of components to be used.
The points that must be checked during
fixed gas connection assembly
To assemble a fixed gas connection (gas connection
made by threads, e.g. a nut), there are different
methods used in different countries. The most
common parts are already supplied with your
appliance. Any other part can be supplied as spare part.
During connections always keep the nut on the gas
manifold fixed, while rotating the counter-part. Use
spanners of appropriate size for safe connection. For
all surfaces between different components, always use
the seals provided in the gas conversion kit. The seals
used during connection should also be approved to be
used in gas connections. Do not use plumbing seals
for gas connections.

Ignition of the burners
To determine which knob controls which burner,
check the position symbol above the knob.
Manual Ignition of the Gas Burners
If your appliance is not equipped with any ignition
aid or in case there is a failure in the electric network,
follow the procedures listed below:
For Hob Burners: To ignite one of the burners, press
and turn its knob counter-clockwise so that the knob
is in maximum position, approach a match, taper or
another manual aid to its upper circumference. Move
the ignition source away as soon as you see a stable
flame.
Electrical Ignition by Spark Button

that the knob is in maximum position and with your
other hand, press the ignition button (Fig 22) at the
same time.

positions. Do not operate the burners when the knob
position is between maximum and off positions.
Note: Press the ignition button immediately, because
if you wait, a build up of gas may cause the flame to
spread. Continue pressing the ignition button until you
see a stable flame on the burner.

Flame safety device:
Hob Burners
Hobs equipped with a flame failure device provide
security in case of accidentally extinguished flames. If
such a case occurs, the device will block the burners
gas lines and will avoid any accumulation of unburned
gas. Wait 90 seconds before reigniting an extinguished
Fig 24.
After the ignition, check the flames visually. If you see
a yellow tip, lifted or unstable flames turn the gas flow
off, and check the assembly of burner caps and crowns
(Fig 24). Also, make sure that no liquid has flown
into the burner cups. If the burner flame goes out
accidentally, turn the burner off, ventilate the kitchen
with fresh air, and do not attempt re-ignition for 90 sec.
When turning the hob off, turn the knob in the
clockwise direction so that the knob shows “0” position
or the marker on the knob points upwards.
Your hob has burners of different diameters. The most
economic way of using gas is to choose the correct

when the appliance is operating. So it is imperative
to keep children and animals out of the reach of the
burners during and after cooking.
• After use, the hob remains very hot for a prolonged
period of time, do not touch it and do not place any
object on top of the hob.
• Never place knives, forks, spoons and lids on the
hob as they will get hot and could cause serious
burns.
• Do not use cooking containers that protrude from
the cookers table.
Fig 26.
Make sure that the tips of the flames do not spread out
of the outer circumference of the pan, as this may also
harm the plastic accessories around the pan (handles
etc.).
When the burners are not in use for prolonged periods,
always turn the main gas control valve off.
WARNING:
• Use only flat pans and with a sufficiently thick base.
• Ensure that the base of the pan is dry before placing
it on the burners.
• The temperature of accessible parts may be high
