Instructions for the installer
Suitable location
A gas-powered cooking appliance produces heat
and himidity in the area in which it is installed. For
this reason you should ensure good ventilation either
by keeping all natural air passages open or by installing an extractor hood with an ehaust flue (Fig.
3-4). Intensive and prolonged use of the appliance
may require extra ventilation, such the opening of
a window or an increase in speed of the electric fan,
if you have one.
If your appliance is not fitted with a thermocouple
(safety device) the ventilation hole shown in Fig. 3
should be at least 200 cm
2
.
Fig. 3
If a hood cannot be installed, an electric fan
should be fitted to an outside wall or window as
long there are air vents in the area.
The electric fan should be able to carry out a complete change of air in the kitchen 3-5 times every
hour.
The installer should follow the relavant national
standards.

Electrical connection
Check the data on the rating plate, located on the outside of the unit, to ensure that the
supply and input voltage are suitable.
Before connection, check the earthing system.
By Law, this appliance must be earthed. If this regulation is not complied with, the
Manufacturer will not be responsible for any damage caused to persons or property.
If a plug is not already attached, fit a plug appropriate to the load indicated on the rating
plate. The earth wire is coloured yellow/green.
Where the Hob is connected direct to the electricity supply, a circuit breaker must be
fitted with at least a 3 mm contact spacing when in the open position.
It if is necessary to replace the connecting cable, the earth wire (yellow/green) must,
by law, be approximately 10 mm longer than the live and neutral wires. Rubber insulated cable type H05RR-F must be used.
The cables should be 1,5 mm
2
section for products with electrically heated elements,
4
and 0,75 mm2for others products. Also, the maximum external diameter of the cable
should not be greater than 7 mm.
Declaration of compliance. The parts of this equipment which are designed to come
into contact with foodstuffs, comply with EEC directive 89/109.
Appliance complying with European directives 89/336/EEC, 90/396/EEC,
73/23/EEC and subsequent modifications.
The rating plate on the hob shows the type of gas with which it is designed to be used.
It is possible to use other types of gas after carrying out some simple modifications.
a) Connection to the gas supply
— connection to the mains gas supply or gas cylinder should be carried out according
to the relevant national standards, after having checked that it is regulated for the
type of gas with which it will be supplied. If it is not correctly regulated follow the
instructions in the paragraph entitlet «Adaption for different types of gas». For liquid
gas (cylinder gas) use pressure regulators which comply with the relevant national
standards.
N.B.: for safe operation, economic use of energy and to ensure greater durability
of the appliance, make sure that the supply pressure conforms with the values shown
in the table on page 6 .
— Connection to a rigid pipe (see instruction on page 10)
Connection to the gas supply should be done without putting any kind of stress on
the appliance.
— Connection to a flexible steel pipe (see instructions on page 10)
The junction of the gas pipe with the appliance is a 1/2” gas tapered thread connection. Use only pipes, washers and sealing washers which comply with the relevant
national standards.
The fitting of these pipes should be done to that their
maximum length, when fully extended, should not
exceed 2000 mm.
N.B.: carry out a final check for leaks on the
pipework using a soapy solution. Never use a
flame. Also, make sure that the flexible pipe
cannot come into contact with a movlng part of
the cabinet (eg, a drawer) and that it is not situated where it could be damaged.
