*Minimum clearance for cutout to combustible surface.
RANGEHOOD CLEARANCE (Dimension A)
[See A.G.A. 601 5.12.1.6]
Dimension A (Measured from the plane of the pan supports to
Rangehood) should not be less than 650mm.
Any other downward facing combustible surface less than 600mm
above the highest part of the hob
shall be protected for the full
width and depth of the cooking
surface area.
However, in no case should this
clearance to any surface be less
than 450mm.
SIDE CLEARANCE (Dimensions B & C)
Where Dimension B, measured from the periphery of the nearest
burner to any vertical combustible surface, is less than 200mm, the
surface shall be protected in accordance with Clause 5.12.1.2 to a
Height C of not less than 150mm above the hob for the full
dimension (width or depth) of the cooking surface area.
Do use easy-to-clean finishes for the wall surfaces surrounding the
cooktop to aid removal of any cooking stains resulting from use of the
cooktop.
A.G.A. Clause 5.12.1.2.
A.G.A. Clause 5.12.1.2. Protection of a Combustible Surface
Near a Cooking Appliance.
The protection required by clause 5.12.1.1. shall ensure the surface
temperature of the combustible surface does not exceed 50°C above
ambient.
Note The fixing of 5mm thick ceramic tiles to the surface or
attaching fire resistant materials to the surface and covering with
sheet metal with a minimum thickness of 1.4mm would satisfy this
requirement.
CLAMPING DOWN THE COOKTOP/HOB
Place the cooktop into the cutout and tighten it with the supplied
clamps. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
The clamps will cope with bench thickness 15-50mm
(see diagram) when used in the two orientations.
Dimensions Clearances
When used with a flexible hose, the connector on the wall should be
between 800mm to 850mm above the floor and in the region outside
the width of the appliance to a distance of 250mm. This should be
accessable with the appliance installed.
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
The product is supplied set up for Natural Gas. This cooktop is
suitable for installation with Natural Gas, or LP Gas. Refer to table for
the relevant pressures and appropriate injector sizes.
- Gas connection to the product must use the elbow supplied. The
regulator will not seal if installed without it.
- Ensure the blue washer (supplied) is located between the
elbow and the product inlet. Failure to use this will cause
the product to leak.
AFTER INSTALLATION, MAKE SURE ALL CONNECTIONS ARE
GAS SOUND.
FLEXIBLE HOSES
Flexible hose assemblies should be AS/NZS 1869 Class B or
Class D certified.
Flexible hoses should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding
their certified value. They should not touch hot surfaces on the
cooktop or neighbouring products.
Flexible hoses should not be subject to abrasion, kinking or
permanent deformation.
FOR LP GAS MODELS
For LPG Models the gas supply for the appliance must be regulated to
a pressure of 2.72kPa (11" WG). See below for conversions.
FOR NATURAL GAS MODELS
For NG Models the gas supply is connected to the regulator which is
supplied loose with a built in test point - 1kPa (4" WG) and the inlet
connection of 1/2 " B.S.P. (male thread). Do not over tighten.
The test point pressure should be preset to 1.0 kPa with the wok and
semi - rapid burners operating at maximum.
GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION CHECK
To enable the gas supply to be readily shut off, the gas supply must
be connected with an isolating valve close to the product.
After installation and making all connections check thoroughly for
possible leaks.
1. Turn all control knobs on the unit to “off” position.
2. Open the valve on the gas supply.
3. Using a suitable leak testing solution (e.g. Rocol) check each gas
connection one at a time by brushing the solution over the connection.
4. The presence of bubbles will indicate a leak. Tighten the fitting and
recheck for leaks. Ensure the blue washer (supplied) is located
between elbow and manifold.
5. Turn on each gas valve and light each burner.
6. Check for a clear blue flame without yellow tipping. If burners
show any abnormalities, check that they are located properly and in
line with injector nipple. Check correct orifices are installed.
7. The operation of the appliance, including the ignition system, must
be tested before leaving.
If after following the instructions given, satisfactory performance
cannot be obtained, contact the local gas authority or your local
Approved Service Agent for advice and assistance.

Gas Supply
CONVERSION TO DIFFERENT GAS TYPE
Burners can be used with NG or LPG, provided that the injector
orifices appropriate for the gas delivered are installed.
To change the injector orifices, you will need a 7mm box spanner and
a 10mm ring spanner (CG901M only).
1. Turn off the main electrical supply. WARNING: Shock Hazard Inside.
2. Ensure all gas valves are turned off.
3. Remove all trivets and burner heads.
4. Pull off knobs.
5. Unscrew the nut securing the flame failure probe of the
mini-auxiliary burner.
6. Remove the 2 screws holding each burner (3 on the wok burner).
7. Partially lift the hob and unplug the electrode on the mini-auxiliary
burner to allow hob removal. Caution The edge can be sharp.
8. Unscrew the orifices and replace them with the correct ones.
(size numbers are stamped on the side, eg. 70= 0.70mm)
9. Reset the venturi position aligning the end
of the venturi tube with the edge of the slot
in the bracket below it. Outermost position
for LPG, innermost for NG (see figure right).
Some fine adjustment may be required for
local conditions.
10. To replace the CG901M hob, repeat steps 1-7 in reverse.
11. Reset the minimum setting (see next column).
The label supplied with the orifices should
be placed over the existing gas type label
to indicate the change.
MINIMUM SETTING OR TURN DOWN
This has been set at the factory for NG but can be checked after the
correct pressure has been reached.
To adjust the minimum setting you will need a Ø 2.5 x 45 screwdriver.
1. Remove the knob.
2. Ignite the burner and set the knob to its minimum position.
3. Rotate the turn down screw (down the hole in the valve spindle).
Rotate slowly until a minimum regular flame is achieved. (The flame
will diminish when the screw is turned clockwise and increase when
turned anti-clockwise).
4. When the setting is right check regulation by quickly rotating the
knob from the maximum to the minimum delivery position. The flame
must not go out.
5. Replace the knob.
