Instructions for the installer

2.8 Ventilation of rooms

The hob may be installed only in rooms with permanent ventilation, as required by standards regulations in force. The room in which the hob is installed must have sufficient air flow to satisfy the requirements of normal gas combustion and of necessary air exchange in the room. The air intakes, protected by screens, must be appropriately sized (regulations in force) and placed so as not to be blocked in any way. The room where the oven is installed should be suitably ventilated to avoid overheating or excess humidity produced by cooking, and in the case of lengthy use a window should be opened or the speed of any ventilators should be increased.

2.9 Discharge of combustion products

Discharge of combustion products must be guaranteed by means of hoods connected to a natural draught flue with certain efficiency, or by means of forced aspiration. An efficient aspiration system requires careful planning by a specialist capable of installing it, respecting the positions and distances prescribed by standards. After installation, the installer must issue a certificate of conformity.

2.10 Gas connection

Connection to the gas mains may be made with a rigid copper pipe or with a flexible pipe and conforming to the provisions defined by standard regulations in force. Use a soapy solution to check for proper tightness. Never use a free flame. The hob has been inspected for G20 (2H) natural gas at a pressure of 20 mbar. For use with other types of gases, see Section “3. ADAPTING TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS”. The gas intake fitting is ½” gas external threaded (ISO 228-1).
Connection with rigid copper pipe:
the connection to the gas mains must not provoke stress of any kind on the hob. Connection may be made by using biconical adapter D with insertion of gasket C (supplied).
Connection with flexible pipe: use only flexible pipes conforming to standard regulations in force, inserting gasket C (supplied) between fitting A and flexible pipe E.
30
Instructions for the installer
The flexible pipe has to be installed so that pipe length does not exceed
1.5 meters of maximum extension. Make sure that the pipes do not touch any moving parts or become damaged.

2.11 Connection to LPG

Use a pressure regulator and make the connection to the tank according to the provisions of standards regulations in force. Make sure that feed pressure conforms to the levels shown in the table in paragraph “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.

Instructions for the installer

3. ADAPTATION TO DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS

Before performing any cleaning or maintenance work, detach the appliance from the electrical socket.
The cooker hob is set for natural gas G20 (2H) at a pressure of 20 mbar for cookers with maxi oven, and for LPG G30/G31 (3+) at a pressure of 28/37 mbar for cookers with gas-bottle compartments. In the case of functioning with other types of gas the burner nozzles must be changed and the minimum flame adjusted on the gas taps. To change the nozzles, proceed as described below.

3.1 Replacement of nozzles on the hob

This operation requires no primary air regulation.
1. Extract the grids and remove all the caps and flame-spreader crowns;
2. unscrew the burner nozzles with a 7 mm socket wrench;
3. replace the nozzles according to the type of gas to be used and the description in paragraph “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.
4. Replace the burners in the correct position.

4. FINAL OPERATIONS

Having carried out the above adjustments, reassemble the appliance following, backwards, the instructions in paragraph “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.
After adjustment to a different kind of gas from the one for which the cooker has been tested, replace the plate inside the heating compartment with one corresponding to the new kind of gas. This plate can be obtained from your nearest Authorised Assistance Centre.

4.1 Adjustment of minimum for natural gas

Light the burner and take it to the minimum. Remove the gas tap knob and turn the adjustment screw inside or at the side of the tap shaft (depending on the model) until there is a regular minimum flame. Replace the knob and check burner flame stability: (rapidly turning the knob from maximum to minimum position, the flame should not go out). Repeat the operation on all the gas taps.

4.2 Regulation of minimum for LPG

To regulate the minimum for LPG, completely tighten (clockwise) the screw inside or next to the gas tap pin (depending on the model). The diameters of the by-passes for each burner are given in table “3.2 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”.

4.3 Lubrication of gas taps

With time it may happen that the gas taps get blocked and hard to turn. Clean them inside and re-grease them. This operation must be done by a specialised technician.

5. USE OF THE COOKING HOB

5.1 Lighting the burners

Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure that the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and thermocouples.
Panstand grid B, available upon request, is intended for use with woks (Chinese pans). To prevent damage to the worktop, the hob is equipped with a raised grid C: installs over pans larger than the diameter shown in the table in paragraph " 5.3 Diameter of receptacles". Note that pans larger than 28 cm diameter must be used only on the central burner.
Each knob corresponds to the burner indicated. The appliance is equipped with an electric lighting device. To light the burners, press and turn the knob anticlockwise to the large flame symbol
. Keep the knob pressed for about 2 seconds to let the thermocouple heat up.
If the burner turns off when the knob is released, it means that the
thermocouple isn’t hot enough. Repeat ignition and keep the knob pressed longer. Once the burner has been ignited, the flame can be regulated as required. Always check that the control knobs are in the position (off) when you finish using the hob.
If the burners turn off accidentally, a safety device will trip after about 20 seconds to cut off gas flow (even with the gas tap open).

Instructions for the user

5.2 Practical advice for using the burners

For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered containers that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame from licking the sides (see paragraph “5.3 Diameter of containers”). When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t overflow.
To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all recipients or griddle plates must be placed within the perimeter of the cooking hob.
When using fats or oils, be extremely careful that they don’t overheat and catch fire.
