If one or more of these conditions is not fulfilled or
if the cooker must be installed according to the
conditions listed for class 2 - subclass 1 appliances
(installed between two cupboards), the flexible steel
hose must be used instead (
see below).
Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel
pipe to a threaded attachment
Make sure that the hose and gaskets comply with
current national legislation.
To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on
the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance
is a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment).
!
Perform the connection in such a way that the hose
length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres,
making sure that the hose is not compressed and
does not come into contact with moving parts.
Checking the connection for leaks
When the installation process is complete, check the
hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never
use a flame.
Adapting to different types of gas
It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas
other than the default type (this is indicated on the
rating label on the cover).
Adapting the hob
Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners:
1. Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off
their seats.
2. Unscrew the nozzles using
a 7 mm socket spanner (
see
figure), and replace them with
nozzles suited to the new type
of gas (
see Burner and nozzle
specifications table).
3. Replace all the components
by following the above instructions in reverse.
Adjusting the hob burners’ minimum setting:
1. Turn the tap to the minimum position.
2. Remove the knob and adjust the regulatory
screw, which is positioned inside or next to the tap
pin, until the flame is small but steady.
!
If the appliance is connected to a liquid gas
supply, the regulatory screw must be fastened as
tightly as possible.
3. While the burner is alight, quickly change the position
of the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa
several times, checking that the flame is not
extinguished.
!
The hob burners do not require primary air adjustment.
! After adjusting the appliance so it may be used with a
different type of gas, replace the old rating label with a
new one that corresponds to the new type of gas (these
labels are available from Authorised Technical Assistance
Centres).
! Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary
slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable
pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet hose in
accordance with current national regulations relating to
“regulators for channelled gas”.
Safety Chain
! In order
to prevent
accidental
tipping of the
appliance, for
example by
a child clim-
bing onto the
oven door, the
supplied safety
chain MUST be
installed!
The cooker is fitted with a safety chain to be fixed by
means of a screw (not supplied with the cooker) to
the wall behind the appliance, at the same height as
the chain is attached to the appliance.
Choose the screw and the screw anchor according
to the type of material of the wall behind the applian-
ce. If the head of the screw has a diameter smaller
than 9mm, a washer should be used. Concrete wall
requires the screw of at least 8mm of diameter, and
60mm of length.
Ensure that the chain is fixed to the rear wall of the
cooker and to the wall, as shown in figure, so that
after installation it is tensioned and parallel to the
ground level.
