CAUTION : The use of the gas cooking appliance
results in the production of heat, moisture and
products of combustion in the room in which it is
installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated
especially when the appliance is in use: keep natural
ventilation holes open or install a mechanical
ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for
additional ventilation, for example opening of the
window, or more eective ventilation,increasing the
level of mechanical ventilation where present.
WARNING: The appliance and its accessible parts
become hot during use. Care should be taken to
avoid touching heating elements. Children less than
8 years of age must be kept away unless continuously
supervised.
WARNING : If the hob surface is cracked, don’t use
the appliance – risk of electrical shock.
WARNING : Danger of re : Do not store items on
the cooking surfaces.
CAUTION : The cooking process has to be
supervised. A short cooking process has to be
supervised continuously.
WARNING : Unattended cooking on a hob with fat
or oil can be dangerous – risk of re. NEVER try to
extinguish a re with water, but switch o the
appliance and then cover ame e.g. with a lid or a re
blanket.
Do not use the hob as a work surface or support.

PERMITTED USE
CAUTION: the appliance is not intended to be
operated by means of an external switching device,
such as a timer, or separate remote controlled system.
This appliance is intended to be used in
household and similar applications such as: sta
kitchen areas in shops, oces and other working
environments; farm houses; by clients in hotels,
motels, bed & breakfast and other residential
environments.
No other use is permitted (e.g. heating rooms).
This appliance is not for professional use. Do not
use the appliance outdoors.
Use pots and pans with bottoms the same width
as that of the burners or slightly larger (see specic
table). Make sure pots on the grates do not protrude
beyond the edge of the hob.
Improper use of the grids can result in damage to
the hob: do not position the grids upside down or
slide them across the hob.
Do not let the burner ame extend beyond the edge of the pan.
Do not use : Cast iron griddles, ollar stones, terracotta pots and pans.
Heat diusers such as metal mesh, or any other types. Two burners
simultaneously for one receptacle (e.g. Fish kettle).
Should particular local conditions of the delivered gas make the ignition of
burner dicult, it is advisable to repeat the operation with the knob turned
to small ame setting.
In case of installation of a hood above the cooktop, please refer to the hood
instructions for the correct distance.
The protective rubber feet on the grids represent a chocking hazard for
young children. After removing the grids, please ensure that all the feet are
correctly tted.
INSTALLATION
The appliance must be handled and installed by
two or more persons - risk of injury. Use protective
gloves to unpack and install - risk of cuts.
Installation, including water supply (if any) and
electrical connections, and repairs must be carried
out by a qualied technician. Do not repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless specically stated in
the user manual. Keep children away from the
installation site. After unpacking the appliance, make
sure that it has not been damaged during transport.
In the event of problems, contact the dealer or your
nearest After-sales Service. Once installed, packaging
waste (plastic, styrofoam parts etc.) must be stored
out of reach of children - risk of suocation. The
appliance must be disconnected from the power
supply before any installation operation - risk of
electrical shock. During installation, make sure the
appliance does not damage the power cable - risk of
re or electrical shock. Only activate the appliance
when the installation has been completed.
The electrical and gas connections must comply
with local regulation.
WARNING : Modication of the appliance and its
method of installation are essential in order to use
the appliance safely and correctly in all the additional
countries.
Use pressure regulators suitable for the gas
pressure indicated in the instruction.
The room must be equipped with an air extraction
system that expels any combustion fumes.
The room must also allow proper air circulation, as
air is needed for combustion to occur normally. The
ow of air must not be less than 2 m3/h per kW of
installed power.
The air circulation system may take air directly
from the outside by means of a pipe with an inner
cross section of at least 100 cm2; the opening must
not be vulnerable to any type of blockages.
The system can also provide the air needed for
combustion indirectly, i.e. from adjacent rooms tted
with air circulation tubes as described above.
However, these rooms must not be communal
rooms, bedrooms or rooms that may present a re
hazard.
Liquid petroleum gas sinks to the oor as it is
heavier than air. Therefore, rooms containing LPG
cylinders must also be equipped with vents to allow
gas to escape in the event of a leak. As a result LPG
cylinders, whether partially or completely full, must
not be installed or stored in rooms or storage areas
that are below ground level (cellars, etc.). It is
advisable to keep only the cylinder being used in the
room, positioned so that it is not subject to heat
produced by external sources (ovens, replaces,
stoves, etc. ) which could raise the temperature of the
cylinder above 50°C.
Carry out all cabinet cutting works before tting
the appliance in the furniture and remove all wood
chips and sawdust.
If the appliance is Not installed above an oven, a
separator panel (not included) must be installed in
the compartment under the appliance.
Should you experience diculty in turning the burners knobs, please
contact After Sales Service for replacement of the burner tap if found to be
faulty.
The openings used for the ventilation and dispersion of heat must never be
covered.
GAS CONNECTION
WARNING : Prior to installation, ensure that the
local distribution conditions (nature of gas and gas
pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are
compatible.
Check that the pressure of the gas supply is
consistent with the values indicated in Table 1
(“Burner and nozzle specications”).
WARNING : The adjustment conditions for this
appliance are stated on the label (or data plate).
WARNING : This appliance is not connected to a
combustion products evacuation device. It shall be
installed and connected in accordance with current
installation regulations. Particular attention shall be
given to the relevant requirements regarding
ventilation.
If the appliances is connected to liquid gas, the
regulation screw must be fastened as tightly as
possible.
IMPORTANT : When gas cylinder is adopted, the
gas cylinder or gas container must be properly
settled (vertical orientation).
WARNING : This operation must be performed by
a qualied technician
Use only exible or rigid metal hose for gas
connection.
Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)
Connection to the gas system must be carried out in
such a way as not to place any strain of any kind on
the appliance. There is an adjustable L-shaped pipe
tting on the appliance supply ramp and this is tted
with a seal in order to prevent leaks. The seal must
always be replaced after rotating the pipe tting (the
seal is provided with the appliance). The gas supply
pipe tting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male
attachment.
Connecting a exible jointless stainless steel pipe
to a threaded attachment The gas supply pipe tting
is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical male attachment.
These pipes must be installed so that they are never
longer than 2000 mm when fully extended. Once
connection has been carried out, make sure that the
exible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts
and is not compressed. Only use pipes and seals that
comply with current National regulations.
IMPORTANT : If a stainless steel hose is used, it
must be installed so as not touch any mobile part of
the furniture (e.g. drawer). It must pass through an
area where there are no obstructions and where it is
possible to inspect it on all its length.
The appliance should be connected to the main
gas supply or to gas cylinder in compliance with the
current National regulations. Before carry out the
connection, make sure that the appliance is
compatible with the gas supply you wish to use. If
this is not the case, follow the instructions indicated
in the paragraph “Adapting to dierent types of gas”.
After connection to the gas supply, check for leaks
with soapy water. Light up the burners and turn the
knobs from max position 1* to minimum position 2*
to check ame stability.
