/h for each kW of installed power.
See table of burner power.
Positioning
(Fig. 5). The appliance can be fitted into a working area as illustrated on the
corresponding figure.
Apply the seal provided over the whole of the area perimeter.
Gas connection
prescribed standards in force, and ensure beforehand, that the appliance matches the
type of gas available. Otherwise, see "Adaptation to various types of gas".
Furthermore, check that the feed pressure falls within the values described on the
table: "User chacteristics".
Rigid/semi rigid metal connection
Carry out the connection with fittings and metal pipes (even flexible pipes) so as to
obtain counter stress the inner parts of the appliance.
N.B. - when the installation has been carried out, check the perfect sealing of the entire
connection system, by using a soapy solution.
When the appliance is installed so that the base can be touched, a protecting shield
must be fitted. This shield must be at least 20mm from the lowest part of the

(Fig. 4) Connect the appliance to the gas cylinder or to the installation according to the
For connection with a flexible hose
The hotplate can be connected with a Flexible Hose, which complies with AS/NZS
1869 (AGA Approved), 10mm ID, class B or D, no more than 1.2m long and in ac-
cordance with AS5601. Ensure that the Hose does not contact the hot surfaces of the
hotplate, oven, dishwasher or other appliance that may be installed underneath or next
to the hotplate. WARNING: Ensure that the hose assembly is restrained from acciden-
tal contact with the flue or flue outlet of an underbench oven. The hose should not be
subjected to abrasion, kinking or permanent deformation and should be able to be in-
spected along its entire length. Unions compatible with the hose fittings must be used
and connections tested for gas leaks. The supply connection point shall be accessible
with the appliance installed.
Before Leaving - Check all connections for gas leaks with soap and water. DO NOT use a
naked flame for detecting leaks. Ignite all burners both individually and concurrently to
ensure correct operation of gas valves, burners and ignition. Turn gas taps to low flame
