If the hob is to be installed above an oven or if
other nearby heating appliances risk heating and
damaging the gas hose then it is essential that a
rigid pipe be installed instead.
•
If a flexible hose is used (in the case of
butane gas) then it must not be installed in a place
where it may be in contact with a moving part of
the kitchen unit or a place likely to get cluttered.
•
Access to the whole length of the connection
hose must be possible and the gas hose must be
replaced before its use before date (indicated on
the hose).
•
Whatever meas of connections is chosen,
make sure that it is gas sound after installation by
using soapy-water.
BOTTLED OR TANKED GAS
(
BUTANE
/
PROPANE
).
Reminder :
temperatures above 30°C would
cause overheating of the gas hose. To avoid this,
check that there are no heat-producing devices
nearby
Note:
screw on the connector with a torque not
exceeding 2.5 m/daN (m/kgF).

One of the 3 following connections must be used:
1.
connection with a rigid pipe
(gas standard G1/2).
The connection should be made at the end of the
elbow joint on the appliance
,
2.
connection with a reinforced, braided, flexible
gas hose with threaded connectors
(fig.A)
3.
connection with a flexible gas hose with threa-
ded connectors
(fig.B)
.
These hoses
must not exceed 2 metres
in length
and their entire length must be accessible.
For the user's safety, we advise the connection to be
made with a rigid pipe if this is possible, or with a rein-
forced, braided, flexible gas hose (maximum length 2
metres)
(fig. A)
.
For an existing installation
, where it is not possible
to fit a reinforced, braided, flexible gas hose, the
connection can be made with a flexible gas hose
(maximum length 2 metres),
with two jubilee clips
:
one on the connector
(fig. B)
, and the other on the
pressure regulator, and a gas proof washer should be
fitted between the connector and the elbow seal on
the hob.
The connector end and washer seal can be found the
manual in the bag containing.
