The gas connection must be installed in
compliance with applicable regulations in the
country of installation.
•
Gas distributed by pipe; natural gas,
propane-air gas or butane-air gas
For your safety, you must choose from the
three following connection options:
— Connection with a rigid pipe
made from
copper and with screw-on mechanical
connectors (G1/2 gas standard mark) Make
the connection directly to the end of the
elbow fitted on the appliance.
— Connection with a wavy metal hose
(stainless steel)
with screw-on mechanical
connectors
(compliant with NF D 36-121
standard) whose service life is unlimited
(Fig. A).
— Connection with a reinforced rubber hose
with
screw-on mechanical connectors
(compliant with the NF D 36-103 standard)
whose service life is 10 years
(Fig. B).
GAS CONNECTIONS
• Preliminary comments
If your hob is installed above an oven or if proximity to other heating elements poses a threat of
overheating the connection, you absolutely must insulate the cable in a rigid pipe.
If a hose or soft pipe (in the case of butane gas) is used, it should not come into contact with a
moving part of the cabinet, nor should it pass through a location that may become blocked.

Warning
All soft pipes and hoses whose serv-
ice life is limited must must be at least two
meters long and must be accessible along
their entire length. They must be replaced
before the end of their service life (marked
on the pipe). Regardless of the means of
connection chosen, ensure that the connec-
tion is leaktight, after installation, with soapy
water.
In France, you must use a hose or a pipe
bearing the stamp NF Gaz
Warning
When connecting your hob’s gas
supply, if you have to change the
direction of the elbow fitted on the
appliance:
①
①
Change the sealing washer.
②
②
Screw on the elbow's nut, careful not
to exceed a torque of 17 N.m.
