GAS CONNECTION
Before connecting the appliance check that the data
on the rating plate affi xed to the cooker, correspond
to those of the gas mains.
A label on the back of this handbook and at the back of
the cooker gives the appliance adjustment conditions,
that is, the type of gas and operating pressure.
Once the cooker is installed, check there are no leaks
using a soapy solution (never a fl ame).
The appliance’s gas inlet fi tting is a threaded 1/2”
male cylindrical type, in compliance with the UNI-
ISO 228-1 standards. If gas is distributed through
ducts
the appliance must be connected to the gas
mains with:
•
a rigid steel pipe, in accordance with standards,
whose joints must be made using threaded fi ttings
in accordance with the UNI-ISO 7/1 standard. The
use of hemp with suitable adhesives or Tefl on tape
as a sealant is allowed.
•
copper pipe, in accordance with the standard,
whose joints must be made using sealed fi ttings in
accordance with the standard.
•
a fl
exible stainless steel, seamless pipe in
accordance with the standard, with a maximum 2
metre extension and seals in accordance with the
standard.
•
a fl exible rubber hose in accordance with the
standard, with an 8 mm diameter for LPG and 13
mm for natural gas or town gas, maximum 1500
mm in length, fi rmly secured to the hose fi tting with
a safety clamp as per the standard.
If the gas is supplied directly from a gas cylinder,
the appliance, fed by a pressure regulator in
accordance with the standard, must be connected:
•
with a copper pipe in accordance with the standard,
whose joints must be made using sealed fi ttings in
accordance with the standard.
•
with a fl exible stainless steel, seamless pipe in
accordance with the standard, with a maximum 2
metre extension and seals in accordance with the
standard. We recommend applying the special
adapter to the fl exible pipe, easily found on the
market, to facilitate connection to the pressure
regulator’s hose fi tting on the cylinder.
•
with a fl exible rubber hose in accordance with the
standard, with an 8 mm diameter, minimum 400
mm in length, maximum 1500 mm in length, fi rmly
secured to the hose fi tting with a safety clamp as per
the standard.
ATTENTION:
• If the appliance is going to be recessed (class 2
subclass 1), connect it to the gas supply source
using only fl exible stainless steel, seamless
pipes in accordance with the standard.
• If the appliance is going to be installed free-
standing (class 1) and if you use the fl exible
rubber hose, it is necessary to follow the
instructions given below:
• On its route, the hose must not touch any
parts where the over temperature is more than
70 K.
• The hose must not be subject to any kind of
torsional stress or tractive force, there must
be no pinched parts or really sharp bends.
• It must not touch anything that can cut, that
has sharp corners, etc.
• The whole length of the hose must be easy
to inspect in order to keep a check on its
condition.
• It must be replaced within the date printed on
it.
