in accordance with the regulations in the
country of installation.
GAS CONNECTION
• Preliminary remarks
If your hob is installed above an oven or if there is a risk of the gas supply line overheating due
to the proximity of other heating elements, a rigid pipe should be used for the gas supply.
If a flexible hose or tube is used (as is the case with bottled butane), it must not come into
contact with any moving parts or be positioned where it might become snagged..

— The entire length of the connecting hose must remain accessible and the hose must be
replaced before its usage expiry date (marked on the hose).
—
Whatever type of connection is chosen, after installing the hob use soapy water to ensure that
the connection is airtight.
