The cooker must be installed by a
qualified person in accordance with the
Gas Safety (Installation and Use)
(Amendment) Regulation 1990 and the
relevant building/l.E.E. Regulations.

The following British Standards should
be used as reference when installing this
appliance.
BS6172 1990, BS5440 part 2 1989 and
BS6891 1988.

Failure to install the appliance correctly

GAS CONNECTION

The installation of the cooker to Natural
Gas or LP Gas must be carried out by
a qualified gas engineer. Installers shall
take due account of the provisions of the
relevant British Standards Code of
Practice, the Gas Safety Regulations
and the Building Standards (Scotland)
(Consolidation) Regulations issued by
the Scottish Development Department.

INSTALLATION TO NATURAL GAS

Installation to Natural Gas must conform
to the Code of Practice, etc. The supply
pressure for Natural Gas is 20 mbar.

INSTALLATION TO LP GAS

This appliance must only be connected
to LPG after an LPG conversion kit has
been fitted, (see pages from 12 to 14).
When operating on Butane gas a supply
pressure of 28-30 mbar is required.
When using Propane gas a supply
pressure of 37 mbar is required.
The installation must conform to the
relevant British Standards.

Warning: Only a qualified gas engineer,
also with technical knowledge of
electricity should install the cooker. He
should observe the Regulations and
Codes of Practice governing such
installation of gas cookers.

Note: It is recommended that the gas
connection to the cooker is installed with
a flexible connecting tube made to BS

5386.

INJECTORS REPLACEMENT

Select the injectors to be replaced according to the “Table for the choice of the injectors”
(page 14).

To replace the injectors proceed as follows:

- Remove pan supports and burners from the cooktop.

- Using a wrench, substitute the nozzle injectors “J” (fig. 3.3, 3.4) with those most

suitable for the kind of gas for which it is to be used.

The burners are conceived in such a way so as not to require the regulation of
the primary air.
