Installation Procedure en-us

Installation Procedure
Prepare Installation Space

The kitchen unit must be heat-resistant to at least 200° F (90°C). The stability of the unit must be maintained after producing the cut-out.

Create the cut-out in the countertop for one or several Vario appliances according to the installation diagram. The angle of the cut surface to the countertop must be 90°.

After creating cut-out, remove shavings. Seal cut surfaces in a heat-resistant manner.

Some solid surface countertops require special installations. For example, heat reflective tape and rounded corners may be necessary. Contact the countertop manufacturer for instructions specific to your countertop.

Observe minimum distance between appliance underside and furniture parts of 3/8" (10 mm).

To improve flame stability, we recommend installing an intermediate floor underneath the appliance in the installation cabinet.

When installing multiple Vario appliances: Take into account spacerequirement for VV 200 connection strip between the appliances.Appliances can also be installed in individual cut-outs, bearingin mind a minimum distance between the appliances of 19/16" (40 mm).

Install Appliance
9 WARNING

Before you plug in an electrical cord or turn on power supply, make sure all controls are in the OFF position.

1.Secure the appliance cover VD 200 020 (available separately as special accessories) before fitting on the appliance (see installation instructions

VD 200 020).

9

en-us Installation Procedure

2.Insert appliance evenly into the cutout. Push it firmly into the cutout from above.
Note: The appliance must be firmly fixed in the cutout and must not be able to move around (e.g. during cleaning). If the width of the cutout is at the upper tolerance limit, fasten the ledges at the sides in the cutout if necessary.

The flexible gas line must not come into contact with moving parts of the fitted unit (e.g. drawers) or be laid in areas where it could become trapped or damaged.

The flexible gas line must not come into contact with a cooktop, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, washing machine, hot water pipe, radiator or any other appliance installed in the vicinity of the gas cooktop.

The flexible gas line must not be subject to rubbing, vibrations, kinking or any other kind of deformation. It should be checked along its entire length with the cooktop in the installation position.

SERVICER INFO ONLY

Connect the gas supply using the ½" U.S.A. elbow and the fiber gasket supplied with the unit. The shorter, nontapered thread fits into the threaded nut on the cooktop. The longer, tapered U.S.A. thread is for the incoming gas supply. Vent the gas line, check for leaks.

9 CAUTION

The gas pressure regulator is supplied with the unit and comes set for natural gas.

Connect Gas Supply

The appliance is shipped from the factory for use with natural gas. It must be converted for use with propane. A qualified technician or installer must do the conversion.

Before connecting the appliance, please check whether the local connection conditions such as gas type and gas pressure match the appliance settings.

Make sure the gas supply is turned off at the manual shutoff valve before connecting the appliance.

The gas connection must be in a location that permits access to the manual shut-off valve and which, if applicable, is visible after opening the door of the cabinet.

Connect Electrical Supply

Before connecting supply cord to wall receptacle, make certain that gas shutoff valve and all burner controls are in OFF position.

Electrical connection (AC 110-120 V) is established by means of a connecting cord with a grounding contact plug connected to a grounded socket, which must also be accessible after installation of the gas cooktop.

Burner Cap Placement

The burner parts must be properly placed for the cooktop to function properly. If the burner parts are not properly placed, one or more of the following problems may occur:

Burner flames are too high.

Flames shoot out of burners.

Burners do not ignite.

Burner flames light unevenly.

Burner emits gas odor.

Placing Burner Parts

After electrical connection is complete, assemble the burner parts correctly and evenly. When assembling the burner parts, make sure that the burner head is placed on the base in such a way that the prongs of the burner cap fit snugly into the groove of the burner base.

10

Checking Burner Cap Placement

Check to make sure that there is no gap between the burner parts. You may gently try to move the burner parts from side to side to check if they are properly placed.

Check the Installation

Check operation of electric igniters. Check flame characteristics. Flame should be blue with no yellow tip.

Yellow Flames:

Further adjustment is required.

Yellow Tips on Outer Cones:

Normal for LPG Gas.

Soft Blue Flames:

Normal for Natural Gas.

If the flame is completely or mostly yellow, verify that the regulator is set for the correct fuel. After adjustment, retest.

Some yellow streaking is normal during the initial startup. Allow unit to operate 4-5 minutes and re-evaluate before making adjustments.

Removing the appliance

Disconnect the appliance from the power and the gas supply. Push out the appliance from below.

9 CAUTION

Risk of damage! Do not lever out the appliance from above.

Conversion to another type of gas en-us

Conversion to another type of gas

The appliance must only be converted to a different type of gas by a licensed expert.

Switch off the power supply and shut off the gas supply before carrying out conversion.

This gas cooktop conforms to the categories indicated on the rating plate. Changing the injection nozzles enables the appliance to be used with all the types of gas listed there. Conversion kits can be obtained from our aftersales service. Some models come delivered with a conversion kit.

The gas type is changed by:

Replacing the main control jets

Adjusting the gas valves (bypass screws)

The table shows the right combination for the relevant gas type.

Never remove the gas valve shaft. In the event of damage or unusual gas conversion, the entire gas valve must be replaced. Call customer service.

9 CAUTION
To convert regulator to LP (propane) gas:
Make-Maxitrol Model RV 47 CL ½ PSIG
3.Remove the aluminum cap from the top of the regulator.
4.Remove the yellow plastic shaft from the cap by pushing it sideways until it pops out of the groove in the cap.
5.Turn the shaft over and push back into the cutout in the cap.
6.Replace the cap on the regulator.

11

en-us Conversion to another type of gas

Replacing the main control nozzles:
1.Remove the pan support and all burner parts.
2.Undo the fastening screws on the burners (two screws on each burner). Lift the burners upwards and remove them.
3.Undo the earthing screw on the rear burner. Carefully lift the hob upwards and remove it.
4.Remove the control knob.
5.Undo the fastening screws on the control panel. Remove the control panel and disconnect the connection cable on the back of the control panel.
6.Replace the nozzles. You can obtain a key from our customer service (order number 00424699). Take care not to break the nozzles when (un)screwing them.
7.Screw the new nozzles in as far as possible to obtain a tight seal.
