appliance are on the rating plate, which
you can find near the gas supply pipe.

• This appliance is not connected to a
combustion products evacuation device.
It must be installed and connected in ac­cordance with current installation regula­tions. Particular attention must be given
to the relevant requirements regarding
ventilation.

• The use of a gas cooking appliance

cause heat and moisture in the room
in which it is installed. Make sure
that the ventilation in the kitchen is
good: keep natural ventilation holes
open or install a mechanical ventila­tion device (mechanical extractor
hood).
More ventilation (for example open-

•

ing of a window or increasing the lev­el of mechanical ventilation where
present) is necessary when you oper­ate the appliance with intensity for a
long time.

• Carefully obey the instructions for electri­cal connections. There is the risk of injury
from electrical current.

• Disconnect the appliance from the

electrical supply, before you do the
maintenance work or you clean it.

• The electrical mains terminal is live.

with applicable cable. Speak to your local
Service Force Centre.

• The appliance must have the electrical in­stallation which lets you disconnect the
appliance from the mains at all poles with
a contact opening width of minimum 3
mm.

5 m³ an air vent of effective area of 100 cm²
is required. If it is installed in a room of vol­ume between 5 m³ and 10 m³ an air vent of
effective area of 50 cm² is required, while if
the volume exceeds 11 m³ no air vent is re­quired.
However, if the room has a door which
opens directly to the outside no air vent is
required even if the volume is between 5 m³
and 11 m³.
If there are other fuel burning appliances in
the same room, B.S. 5440 Part 2 Current

Gas Connection

Warning! Any gas installation must be

carried out by a GAS SAFE REGISTER
installer.

Make sure that, once the hob is installed, it
is easily accessible for the engineer in the
event of a breakdown.
The manufacturer will not accept liability,
should the above instructions or any of the
other safety instructions incorporated in this
instruction booklet be ignored.
On the end of the shaft, which includes the
G 1/2" threaded elbow, adjustment is fixed
so that the washer is fitted between the

Connection to the gas supply should be
with either rigid or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel
or copper.
The connection should be suitable for con­necting to R 1/2 (1/2 BSP male thread).
When the final connection has been made,
it is essential that a thorough leak test is
carried out on the hob and installation.
Make sure that the main connection pipe
does not exert any strain on the hob.
If you use flexible metal pipes make sure
that they agree to ISO 10380 and ISO
10807 standards. Be careful they do not
come in touch with mobile parts or they are
not squeezed. Also be careful when the
hob is put together with an oven.

Important! It is important to install the
elbow correctly, with the shoulder on the
end of the thread, fitted to the hob
connecting pipe.

Important! Failure to ensure the correct
assembly will cause leakage of gas.

Important! Make sure that the gas supply
pressure of the appliance obeys the
recommended values.

Rigid connection:

Carry out connection by using metal rigid
pipes (copper with mechanical end).

Injectors replacement

1. Remove the pan supports.

2. Remove the caps and crowns of the
burner.

3. With a socket spanner 7 remove the in­jectors and replace them with the ones
which are necessary for the type of gas
you use (see table in Technical Data
section).

4. Assemble the parts, follow the same
procedure backwards.

5. Replace the rating plate (it is near the
gas supply pipe) with the one for the
new type of gas supply. You can find
this plate in the package supplied with
the appliance.

If the supply gas pressure is changeable or
different from the necessary pressure, you
must fit an applicable pressure adjuster on
the gas supply pipe.

Adjustment of minimum level

To adjust the minimum level of the burners:

1. Light the burner.

2. Turn the knob on the minimum posi­tion.

3. Remove the knob.

4. With a thin screwdriver, adjust the by­pass screw position.

1 The by-pass screw

– If you change from natural gas 20

mbar to liquid gas, fully tighten the
by-pass screw in.

– If you change from liquid gas to natu-

ral gas 20 mbar, undo the by-pass
screw approximately 1/4 of a turn
(1/2 of a turn for Triple Crown burn­er).

Warning! Make sure the flame does
not go out when you quickly turn the
knob from the maximum position to the
minimum position.
