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.

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

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 Aftersales 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 fault y.
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 fasted 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.
