GAS SUPPLY:

■ The connection must be performed by an authorised person according to the rel-

evant standards.

■ Before connecting the appliance to the gas main, mount the brass conical adap-

tor onto the gas inlet pipe, upon which the gasket has been placed (figures 1.14a-

1.14b).
Conical adaptor and gasket are supplied with the appliance (packed with con­version kit for use with Natural gas or Universal LPG).

■ This appliance is suitable for use with Natural Gas or Universal LPG. (Check the

“gas type” sticker attached to the appliance).

■ For Natural Gas models the gas supply is connected to the pressure regulator

which is supplied with the appliance (fig. 1.14b). Adjust the regulator to obtain a
test point pressure of 1 kPa with both of the triple ring burners operating at the
maximum.

■ For Universal LPG models the gas supply is connected to the test point adaptor

which is supplied with the appliance (fig. 1.14a) and ensure that the supply pres­sure is regulated to 2.75 kPa.

■ The connection must be made at the rear of appliance. If the connection pipe

cross the cooker, it must be positioned under the cooker rear protection (fig.

1.16).

■

IMPORTANT: Use two spanners to tighten or loosen the connecting pipe (fig.

1.15)

1. After connecting the gas supply, check the piping and connections for leaks using
a soap and water solution. The presence of bubbles indicates a leak, tighten or
replace connections as appropriate.
Warning: Do not use any naked flame to check for leaks.

2. Adjust the test point pressure or supply pressure to the value which is appropriate
for the gas type.

3. The operation of the appliance must be tested when installation is completed.

4. Turn on the appliance gas controls and light each burner individually and in combi­nation. Check for a well defined blue flame without any yellow tipping. If any abnor­mality is evident then check that the burner cap is located properly and the injector
nipple is aligned correctly.

5. Check the minimum burner setting by quickly rotating the gas control knob from the
maximum to the minimum position, the flame must not go out. If adjustment is
required carry out the “Setting the burner minimum" procedure described.

6. If satisfactory performance cannot be obtained, the installer shall check the instal­lation and notify the local gas supply authority for a gas supply problem, or if it is
an appliance problem, our Customer Service Centre should be called to obtain the
nearest authorized Delonghi Service Agent.

CONVERSION PROCEDURE (to convert to Universal LPG)

REPLACING THE INJECTORS

The conversion procedure must be carried out only by an authorised person.

This appliance is suitable for use with Natural gas or Universal LPG (check the “gas
type” sticker attached to the appliance). A label stating the type of gas used after
replacing the injectors must be attached at the rear of the appliance, in proximity of the
gas inlet connection. The nominal gas consumption and injector size details are pro­vided in table at page 15.

To r eplace the injectors proceed as follows:

■ Remove pan supports and burners from the cooktop.

■ Using a spanner, remove the injectors J (figs. 1.17a, 1.17b, 1.17c) and replace

them with the correct ones according to the gas type (see following tables ­page 15).

■ Affix to the rear of the appliance, in proximity of the gas inlet connections, the

warning label (supplied with the conversion kit) stating that the cooker has been
converted for use with Universal LPG / Natural gas.

IMPORTANT

■ If the cooker is suitable for use with Natural gas and must be converted for use

with Universal LPG, before connecting to gas main remove the appliance gas
regulator and replace with test point adaptor (see figs. 1.14a-1.14b).

■ If the cooker is suitable for use with Universal LPG and must be converted for

use with Natural gas, before connecting to the gas main remove the appliance
test point adaptor and replace with gas regulator (see figs. 1.14a-1.14b).

NOTE:

Gas regulator and test point adaptor are supplied with the appliance (packed with con­version kit).

The burners are designed so that regulation of primary air is not required.
