Leak-testing and flame-testing the cooker

After installing the freestanding cooker and connecting the gas supply:

1

Using a suitable leak detection fluid solution, check each gas connection one at a time by

brushing the solution over the connection.
The presence of bubbles will indicate a leak. If there is a leak, tighten the fitting and then
recheck for leaks.

Important!

Do not use a naked flame to test for leaks.

2

Adjust the test point pressure or supply pressure to the value that is appropriate for the gas

type.

3

Test the operation of the appliance:

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.

Check the minimum burner setting by quickly rotating the gas control dial from the
maximum to the minimum position. The flame must not go out. If you need to adjust the
setting, see ‘Adjusting the minimum burner setting’ following.

4

If satisfacfory 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 Service Agent.
