4. 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.
To facilitate connection, fitting
A
on the rear of the appliance may be
adjusted laterally. For this purpose, loosen hexagon nut
B
, turn fitting
A
to the desired position, and retighten hexagon nut
B
(tightness is ensured
by a biconical brass ring). 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 “5.
ADAPTATION 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
.
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.
