no airvent is
required. However, if the room has a door or a
window which opens directly to the outside no air
vent is required even when the volume is between
5m3 and 11m3.
b) During prolonged use of the appliance you may
consider it necessary to open a window to the
outside to improve ventilation.
c) If there are other fuel burning appliances in the
same room, B.S.5440 Part 2 Current Edition, should,
be consulted to determine the requisite air vent
requirements.
Kitchen ventilation
The air flow into the room where the appliance is
installed must equal the quantity of air that is required
for regular combustion of the gas and for ventilating
the same room. Air must enter naturally through
permanent apertures made in the outside walls of the
room or through single or branching collective
ventilation ducts in compliance with the norms. The air
must be taken directly from the outside, from an area
far from sources of pollution. The ventilation aperture
must have the following characteristics:
• total free cross section of passage of at least 6 cm²
for every kW of rated heating capacity of the
appliance, with a minimum of 100 cm² (the heating
capacity is indicated on the rating plate);
• it must be made in such a way that the aperture,
both on the inside and outside of the wall, cannot
be obstructed;
• it must be protected, e.g. with grates, wire mesh,
etc. in such a way that the above-mentioned free
section is not reduced;
• it must be situated as near to floor level as possible.
In the lower part of the cooker there are 4 height
adjustable screw-in feet with which it is possible to
level the cooker if necessary.
Important: this unit may be installed and used only in
permanently ventilated rooms according to the British

Adjacent
Room
Enlarging the ventilation slot
between window and floor.
Room to be
Vented
The air inflow may also be obtained from an adjoining
room, provided the latter is not a bedroom or a room
where there is a risk of fire, such as warehouses,
garages, fuel stores, etc. and is ventilated in
compliance with the norms. The air flow from the
A
adjoining room to the one to be ventilated may pass
freely through permanent apertures with a cross
section at least equal to that indicated above. These
apertures may also be obtained by increasing the gap
between the door and the floor. If an electric fan is
used for extracting the combustion products, the
ventilation aperture must be increased in relation to its
maximum performance. The electric fan should have a
sufficient capacity to guarantee an hourly exchange of
air equal to 3 ÷ 5 times the volume of the kitchen.
Prolonged, intensive use of the appliance may require
extra ventilation, e.g. an open window or a more
efficient ventilation system by increasing the extraction
power of the electric fan if installed. Liquid petroleum
gas descends towards the floor as it is heavier than
air. Apertures in the outside walls in rooms containing
LPG cylinders should therefore be at floor level, in
order to allow any gas from leaks to be expelled. Do
not store LPG cylinders (even when empty) in
basements or rooms below ground level; it is
advisable to keep only the cylinder in use in the room
at any one time and connected far from heat sources
which could raise its temperature to above 50 °C.
Gas supply
• Check that the appliance is set for the type of gas
available and then connect it to the mains gas
piping or the gas cylinder in compliance with the
applicable norms in force.
• This appliance is designed and set to work with the
gas indicated on the label situated on the actual
hob. If the gas supply is different from the type for
which the appliance has been set, replace the
corresponding nozzles (provided), following the
instructions given in the paragraph "Adaptation to
different types of gas".
• For trouble-free operation, suitable use of energy
and a longer life cycle for the appliance, make sure
that the supply pressure complies with the values
indicated in table 1 "Burner and nozzle
specifications", otherwise install a special pressure
regulator on the supply pipe in compliance with
current standards and regulations.
• Connect in such a way that the appliance is
subjected to no strain whatsoever.
Either a rigid metal pipe
with fittings in
compliance with the
standards in force must
be used for connecting
to the nipple union
(threaded ½"G male
fitting) situated at the
rear of the appliance to
the right, or flexible steel
pipe in compliance with
the standards in force, which must not exceed 2000
mm in length.
Should it be necessary to turn the fitting, the gasket
(supplied with the appliance) must be replaced. Upon
completion of installation, check the gas circuit, the
internal connections and the taps for leaks using a
soapy solution (never a flame).
Also check that the connecting pipe cannot come into
contact with moving parts which could damage or
crush it.
Make sure that the natural gas pipe is adequate for a
sufficient supply to the appliance when all the burners
are lit Important: A pressure regulator, in compliance
with the standards in force, must be inserted when
connecting to a liquid gas supply (in a cylinder).
Adapting to different types of gas
To adapt the hob to a different type of gas from the
factory-set one (indicated on the rating plate at the top
of the hood or on the packaging), the burner nozzles
should be replaced as follows:
• Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their
seats.
• Unscrew the nozzles
(see figure), using a 7
mm socket spanner
and replace them with
nozzles for the new
type of gas (see table
1 "Burner and nozzle
characteristics").
Reassemble the parts
following the above
procedure in the
reverse order.
• On completing the operation, replace the old rating
label with the one showing the new type of gas; the
sticker is available from our Service Centres.
Adjusting the primary air of the burners The primary
air of the burners does not need to be adjusted.
Adjusting the low flame
• Turn the tap to the low flame position;
• Remove the knob and
turn the adjusting
screw, situated to the
right of the tap (see
figure) until you obtain
a regular small flame,
using a screwdriver
(loosening the screw
increases the height
of the flame,
tightening decreases
it).
N.B.: In the case of liquid gas, the regulation
screw must be screwed in all the way.

• Having obtained the low flame setting required
and with the burner lit, abruptly change the
position of the knob several times from minimum
to maximum and vice versa and check that the
flame does not go out.
• In appliances fitted with the safety device
(thermocouple), should the device fail to work with the
burners set to the low flame setting, increase the low
flame setting of the same on the adjusting screw.
Once the adjustment has been made, remount the
seals on the by-passes using sealing wax or similar.
Electrical connection
THE APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
The appliance is designed to work with alternating
current at the supply voltage and frequency indicated
on the rating plate (situated on the rear part of the
appliance and on the last page of the instruction
booklet) or at the end of the instruction booklet. Make
sure that the local supply voltage corresponds to the
voltage indicated on the rating plate.
To connect directly to the mains supply, a doublepole switch with a contact separation of at least 3
mm suitable for the load and complying with current
standards and regulations, must be fitted between the
appliance and the mains supply outlet. The yellowgreen earth wire must not be interrupted by the switch.
The supply cable must be in such a position that no
part of it can reach a temperature of 50 °C above
room temperature. Do not use adapters or shunts as
they could cause heating or burning. Before
connecting to the power supply, make sure that:
• the limiter valve and the domestic system can
withstand the load from the appliance (see rating
plate);
• the supply system is efficiently earthed according to
standards and laws in force;
• the socket or double-pole switch are easily
accessible when the appliance is installed.

Disposal
• When disposing of packaging material: observe
local legislation so that the packaging may be
reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
states that household appliances should not be
disposed of using the normal solid urban waste
cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected
separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using
and recycling the materials inside the machine,
while preventing potential damage to the
atmosphere and to public health. The crossed-out
dustbin is marked on all products to remind the
owner of their obligations regarding separated
waste collection.
