Installation
GB
Before operating your new appliance please read
this instruction booklet carefully. It contains important
information concerning the safe installation and
operation of the appliance.
Please keep these operating instructions for future
reference. Make sure that the instructions are kept with
the appliance if it is sold, given away or moved.
The appliance must be installed by a qualified
professional according to the instructions provided.
Any necessary adjustment or maintenance must be
performed after the cooker has been disconnected
from the electricity supply.
Room ventilation
The appliance may only be installed in permanentlyventilated rooms, in accordance with current national
legislation. The room in which the appliance is
installed must be ventilated adequately so as to
provide as much air as is needed by the normal gas
combustion process (the flow of air must not be lower
than 2 m
3
/h per kW of installed power).
The air inlets, protected by grilles, should have a duct
with an inner cross section of at least 100 cm
2
and
should be positioned so that they are not liable to
even partial obstruction (see figure A).
These inlets should be enlarged by 100% - with a
minimum of 200 cm
2
- whenever the surface of the hob
is not equipped with a flame failure safety device.
When the flow of air is provided in an indirect manner
from adjacent rooms (see figure B), provided that
these are not communal parts of a building, areas with
increased fire hazards or bedrooms, the inlets should
be fitted with a ventilation duct leading outside as
described above.

Disposing of combustion fumes
The disposal of combustion fumes should be
guaranteed using a hood connected to a safe and
efficient natural suction chimney, or using an electric
fan that begins to operate automatically every time the
appliance is switched on (see figure).
Fumes channelled Fumes channelled through
straight outside a chimney or a branched
flue system (reserved for
cooking appliances)
The liquefied petroleum gases are heavier than air
and collect by the floor, therefore all rooms containing
LPG cylinders must have openings leading outside so
that any leaked gas can escape easily.
LPG cylinders, therefore, whether partially or
completely full, must not be installed or stored in
rooms or storage areas that are below ground level
(cellars, etc.). Only the cylinder being used should be
stored in the room; this should also be kept well away
from sources of heat (ovens, chimneys, stoves) that
may cause the temperature of the cylinder to rise
above 50°C.
Positioning and levelling
It is possible to install the appliance alongside
cupboards whose height does not exceed that of the
hob surface.
Make sure that the wall in contact with the back of
the appliance is made from a non-flammable, heatresistant material (T 90°C).

Ventilation opening Increase in the gap between
for comburent air the door and the flooring
After prolonged use of the appliance, it is advisable
to open a window or increase the speed of any fans
used.

To install the appliance correctly:
Place it in the kitchen, the dining room or the bed-
sit (not in the bathroom).
If the top of the hob is higher than the cupboards,
the appliance must be installed at least 600 mm
away from them.
If the cooker is
installed underneath a
wall cabinet, there must
be a minimum distance
of 420 mm between this
cabinet and the top of
700 mm. without hood

Do not position blinds behind the cooker or less
than 200 mm away from its sides.
Any hoods must be installed according to the
instructions listed in the relevant operating manual.
Levelling
The voltage is in the range between the values
indicated on the data plate.
The socket is compatible with the plug of the
appliance. If the socket is incompatible with the
plug, ask an authorised technician to replace it. Do
not use extension cords or multiple sockets.
Once the appliance has been installed, the power
supply cable and the electrical socket must be easily
accessible.
The cable must not be bent or compressed.
The cable must be checked regularly and replaced
by authorised technicians only.
The manufacturer declines any liability should
these safety measures not be observed.
GB
If it is necessary to level the
appliance, screw the
adjustable feet into the places
provided on each corner of the
base of the cooker (see figure).
The legs* fit into the slots on
the underside of the base of
the cooker.
Electrical connection
Install a standardised plug corresponding to the load
indicated on the appliance data plate (see Technical
data table).
The appliance must be directly connected to the mains
using an omnipolar circuit-breaker with a minimum
contact opening of 3 mm installed between the appliance
and the mains. The circuit-breaker must be suitable for
the charge indicated and must comply with current
electrical regulations (the earthing wire must not be
interrupted by the circuit-breaker). The supply cable must
be positioned so that it does not come into contact with
temperatures higher than 50°C at any point.
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply,
make sure that:
The appliance is earthed and the plug is compliant with
the law.
The socket can withstand the maximum power of the
appliance, which is indicated by the data plate.
Gas connection
Connection to the gas network or to the gas cylinder
may be carried out using a flexible rubber or steel hose,
in accordance with current national legislation and after
making sure that the appliance is suited to the type of
gas with which it will be supplied (see the rating sticker
on the cover: if this is not the case see below). When
using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a pressure
regulator which complies with current national
regulations. To make connection easier, the gas supply
may be turned sideways*: reverse the position of the
hose holder with that of the cap and replace the gasket
that is supplied with the appliance.
Check that the pressure of the gas supply is
consistent with the values indicated in the Table of
burner and nozzle specifications (see below). This will
ensure the safe operation and durability of your
appliance while maintaining efficient energy
consumption.
Gas connection using a flexible rubber hose
Make sure that the hose complies with current national
legislation. The internal diameter of the hose must
measure: 8 mm for liquid gas supply; 13 mm for
methane gas supply.
Once the connection has been performed, make sure
that the hose:
Does not come into contact with any parts that
reach temperatures of over 50°C.
Is not subject to any pulling or twisting forces and
that it is not kinked or bent.
Does not come into contact with blades, sharp
corners or moving parts and that it is not
compressed.

GB
Is easy to inspect along its whole length so that its
condition may be checked.
Is shorter than 1500 mm.
Fits firmly into place at both ends, where it will be
fixed using clamps that comply with current
regulations.
If one or more of these conditions is not fulfilled or if
the cooker must be installed according to the
conditions listed for class 2 - subclass 1 appliances
(installed between two cupboards), the flexible steel
hose must be used instead (see below).
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe
to a threaded attachment
Make sure that the hose and gaskets comply with
current national legislation.
To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on
the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance is
a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment).
Perform the connection in such a way that the hose
length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres,
making sure that the hose is not compressed and
does not come into contact with moving parts.
Checking the tightness of the connection
Adapting to different types of gas
It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas
other than the default type (this is indicated on the
rating label on the cover).
Adapting the hob
Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners:
1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their
seats.
2. Unscrew the nozzles using a
7 mm socket spanner (see
figure), and replace them with
nozzles suited to the new type
of gas (see Burner and nozzle
specifications table).
3. Replace all the components
by following the above
instructions in reverse.
Adjusting the hob burners minimum setting:
1. Turn the tap to the minimum position.
2. Remove the knob and adjust the regulatory screw,
which is positioned inside or next to the tap pin, until
the flame is small but steady.
If the appliance is connected to a liquid gas supply,
the regulatory screw must be fastened as tightly as
possible:
When the installation process is complete, check the
hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never
use a flame.
3. While the burner is alight, quickly change the position of
the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa
several times, checking that the flame is not extinguished.
The hob burners do not require primary air adjustment.
After adjusting the appliance so it may be used with a
different type of gas, replace the old rating label with a new
one that corresponds to the new type of gas (these labels
are available from Authorised Technical Assistance
Centres).
Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet hose in
accordance with current national regulations relating
to regulators for channelled gas.
