Gas connection

GB

T he cooker should be connected to the gas-supply by a corgi registered installer. During installation of this product it is essential to fit an approved gas tap to isolate the supply from the appliance for the convenience of any subsequent removal or servicing. Connection of the appliance to the gas mains or liquid gas must be carried out according to the prescribed regulation in force, and only after it is ascertained that it is adaptable to the type of gas to be used. If not, follow the instructions indicated in the paragraph headed “Adaptation to different gas types”. On some models the gas supply can be

connected on the left or on the right, as

necessary; to change

the connection, reverse

the position of the hose

holder with that of the

cap and replace the

gasket (supplied with

the appliance). In the case of connection to liquid gas, by tank, use

pressure regulators that conform to the regulation in force. The gas supply must be connected to the left of the appliance. Be sure that the hose does not pass through the rear of the cooker touching hot parts.

! Make sure the supply pressure conforms with the values shown in the table entitled “Caracteristics of the burners and nozzles”. When the cooker is installed between cabinets (recessed), the gas connection must be effected by an approved flexible hose with bayonet fitting (BS 669 Current Edition). The gas inlet for the cookers is a threaded G 1/2 gas female fitting.

Connecting the gas supply

To make the connection, a flexible hose should be used corresponding to the current gas regulations which are:

•the hose must never be at any point in its lenght in contact with the “hot” parts of the cooker;

•the hose must never be longer than 1,5 metre;

•the hose must not be subject to any tension or torsional stress and it must not have any excessively narrow curves or bottlenecks;

•the hose must be easy to inspect along its entire length to check its condition;

•the hose must always be in good condition, never

attempt to repair.

! The installation must comply with gas safety

GB (installation and use) regulations 1984. In all cases for the above, by low, a qualified, corgi approved engineer must be called for installation.

Electrial connection

Power supply voltage and frequency: 230-240V a.c. 50/60 Hz.

! The supply cable must be positioned so that it never reaches at any point a temperature 50°C higher than the room temperature. The cable must be routed away from the rear vents. Should you require it, you may use a longer cable, however, you must ensure that the cable supplied with the appliance is replaced by one of the same specifications in accordance with current standards and legislation.

Your appliance is supplied with a 13 amp fused plug that can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. Before using the appliance please read the instructions below.

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Replacing the fuse:

When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained.

Replacement fuse covers:

If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colour as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot.

Removing the plug:

If your appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to remove it to add a cable extension or to re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc., please ensure that either:

• the plug is replaced by a fused 13 amp rewireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval.

or:

•the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance.

!For appliances with a rating greater than 13 amp (eg: electric hob, double ovens and freestanding electric cookers etc.) the mains cable must be wired into a cooker output point with a rating of 45 amp. In this case the cable is not supplied.

Disposing of the plug:

Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into a socket. Instructions for connecting cable to an alternative plug:

! The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green & Yellow	- Earth
Blue	- Neutral
Brown	- Live

If the colours of the wires in the mains lead do not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

Connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal marked “E” or or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.

Connect Brown wire to terminal marked “L” or coloured Red.

Connect Blue wire to terminal marked “N” or coloured Black.

If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a 13 amp fuse. A 15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board. If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use.

Disposing of the appliance

When disposing of the appliance please remove the plug by cutting the mains cable as close as possible to the plug body and dispose of it as described above.

Checking the connection for leaks

When the installation process is complete, check the hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never use a flame.

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.

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 GB 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”.

Safety Chain

! In order to prevent accidental

tipping of the appliance, for example by a child climbing onto the

oven door, the supplied safety chain MUST be installed!

The cooker is fitted with a safety chain to be fixed by means of a screw (not supplied with the cooker) to the wall behind the appliance, at the same height as the chain is attached to the appliance.

Choose the screw and the screw anchor according to the type of material of the wall behind the appliance. If the head of the screw has a diameter smaller than 9mm, a washer should be used. Concrete wall requires the screw of at least 8mm of diameter, and 60mm of length.

Ensure that the chain is fixed to the rear wall of the cooker and to the wall, as shown in figure, so that after installation it is tensioned and parallel to the

ground level.
