Points that must be checked during flexible hose
assembly:
• If the gas connection is made by a flexible hose
fixed onto the gas inlet of the hob, it must be fixed
on by a pipe collar.
• Connect your appliance with a short and durable
hose that is as close as possible to the gas source.
• The permitted maximum length of the hose is 1.5
m.
• The hose that supplies the appliance with gas must
be changed once a year for your safety.
• The hose must be kept clear of areas that may heat
up to temperatures of more than 90°C.
• The hose must not be cracked, torn, bent or folded.
• Keep the hose clear of sharp corners and objects
that could move.
• Before you assemble the connection, you must
make sure the hose is not damaged. Use bubbly
water or leakage fluids to perform the check. Do
not use a naked flame to check for gas leakage.
• All metal items that are used during gas connection
must be free from rust. Check the expiry date of any
components used for connection.
• Points that must be checked during fixed gas
connection assembly
The method used to assemble a fixed gas connection
(gas connection made by threads, e.g. a nut) varies
according to the country you are in. The most
common parts for your country will be supplied
with your appliance. Any other parts required can be
supplied as spare parts.
During connection, always keep the nut on the gas
manifold fixed while rotating the counter-part. Use
appropriately-sized spanners for a safe connection. For
surfaces between different components always use the
seals provided in the gas conversion kit.
The seals used during connection should also be
approved to be used in gas connections. Do not use
plumbing seals for gas connections.
Remember that this appliance is ready to be connected
to the gas supply in the country for which it has been
produced. The main country of destination is marked
on the rear cover of the appliance. If you need to use it
in another country, any of the connections in the figure
below may be required. In such a case, contact local
authorities to learn the correct gas connection.
