specifications:
Category: II 2H3+
Adjacent cabinetry
The dimensions of the appliance are given in the
figure on page 2, and the location of connection
point sin the table on page 10 . For trouble-free
operation of appliances installed in housing units,
the minimum distances shown in fig.4 should be
observed. It is recommended that the adjacent
kitchen surfaces should be capable of withstanding
temperatures of 65°C. Also, the following must be
observed:
The appliance should be installed next to
cabinetry which is no taller than the top of the
cooker hob.
The wall in direct contact with the back panel of
the cooker must be made of non-flammable
material. During operation of the cooker, the back
panel of the cooker could reach a temperature of
50°C above room temperature.
Kitchen cabinets installed next to the cooker that
are higher than the top of the hob, must be at
least 600 mm from the edge of the hob itself.
If the hood is installed below a wall cabinet, the
latter must be at least 700 mm (millimetres) above
the surface of the hob.
Cabinets installed adjacent to the hood must be
at least 420 mm above the hob,
The following minimum clearances to combustible
materials must be observed:
Minimum clearance from edge of burner to side
wall must be 200 mm.
Minimum clearance from edge of burner to rear wall
must be 200 mm.
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.
Kitchen ventilation
Where the total input of all appliances exceeds 3
MJ/h for each cubic metre of the room or enclosure
volume, the space shall be ventilated by one of the
methods detailed below. For the purpose of
assessing the adequacy of ventilation, the space
that cannot be isolated by doors is the volume of a
room.
Natural ventilation direct from outside
Two permanent openings shall be provided directly
to outside. The openings shall be located to ensure
the distance between the top of the upper opening
and the ceiling of the room or enclosure, and the
distance between the bottom of the lower opening
and the floor of the room or enclosure does not
exceed 5% of the height of the room or enclosure.
The minimum free ventilation area provided by each
opening shall be calculated using the following
formula:
A = 3 × T
where
A = the minimum free ventilation area (cm
2
)
T = the total gas consumption of all appliances
(MJ/h)
The minimum vertical dimension of any free
ventilation opening shall be 6 mm.
NOTE 1 When used in this Clause, the term directly
to outside means any one of the following options,
provided that the ventilation path is unobstructed by
building material or insulation:
(a) Directly through an outside wall (preferred
option).

(b) Through to an outside wall but offset.
(c) Into a cavity ventilated to outside.
(d) Into an underfloor space ventilated to outside.
(e) Into a roof space ventilated to outside.
NOTE 2 The two openings may be combined
provided that the top and bottom of the opening
reach the limits set by this Clause.
Natural ventilation via adjacent room
Two permanent openings shall be provided in the
room or enclosure. The openings shall be located to
ensure the distance between the top of the upper
opening and the ceiling of the room or enclosure,
and the distance between the bottom of the lower
opening and the floor of the room or enclosure does
not exceed 5% of the height of the room or
enclosure.
The minimum free ventilation area provided by each
opening shall be calculated using the following
formula:
A = 6 × T
where
A = the minimum free ventilation area (cm
2
)
T = the total gas consumption of all appliances
(MJ/h)
These requirements shall apply to all subsequent
rooms until a room is ventilated to outside, in
accordance with the previous section, or the total
input of the appliances does not exceed 3 MJ/h for
each cubic metre of the total volume of the
enclosure and rooms.
The minimum vertical dimension of any free
ventilation opening shall be 6 mm.
NOTE: The two openings may be combined
provided that the top and bottom of the opening
reach the limits set by this Clause.
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.
Range hoods
Range hoods and overhead exhaust fans must be
installed according to manufacturers instructions
but in no case shall clearance from hob burners be
less than 600 mm for range hoods and 750 mm for
overhead exhaust fans.
If the hood is installed below a wall cabinet, the
latter must be at least 700 mm (millimetres) above
the surface of the hob.
Safety Chain
In order to prevent
accidental tipping of
the appliance, for
example by a child
climbing onto the open
oven door, the supplied
safety chain must be
installed.
Ensure the chain is
secured to the rear wall
of the oven, and attach
the chain to a hook or screw secured to the wall
behind the appliance.
NOTE: If the cooker is placed on a base, measures
must be taken to prevent the appliance slipping
from the base.
This appliance is suitable for use with either a
flexible connection or rigid copper connection.
Check The Gas Type
! Before installation, check that the gas type (natural
gas or LPG/Propane) of the cooker is suitable for the
gas type available to the installation. It is extremely
dangerous to use the wrong gas type with any
appliance, as fire or serious injury can result.
This cooker is supplied from the factory already set
for Natural Gas. To convert the cooker to LPG (or
back to Natural Gas from LPG), follow the directions
later in this section.
Fit regulator supplied for Natural Gas (if applicable)
at rear of appliance, and as close as practicable to
the appliance.
It is recommended that an isolating valve and union
be fitted, to enable simple disconnection for
servicing. These are to be in an accessible location.
Either a rigid metal pipe
with fittings in
compliance with the
standards in force must
be used for connecting
to the nipple union
(threaded ½G male
fitting) situated at the
rear of the appliance to
the right, or an
4
GB
approved flexible hose of class B or D.
Should it be necessary to turn the fitting, the gasket
(supplied with the appliance) must be replaced.
If a flexible hose is used, it should be as short as
possible with a maximum length of 1.5 metres;
The flexible connection must be approved to
class B or D of AS/NZS1869 as a minimum.
it should not be bent, kinked or compressed;
it should not be in contact with the rear wall of the
appliance or in any case with parts which may
reach a temperature of 50°C;
it should not come into contact with pointed parts
or sharp corners;
it should not be subject to any pulling or twisting
forces;
it should be easy to inspect along its entire length
in order to be able to check its condition.
The supply connection point must be accessible
with the appliance installed.
The inner diameters of the pipe are as follows:
8 mm for LPG;
13 mm for Natural Gas.
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
! 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.
Duplicate Data Plate
Where the data plate is obscured by cabinetry when
the cooker is in the installed position, place a
duplicate data plate on a surface of the cabinetry
adjacent to the cooker.
