 Use the hooks contained in the “accessory pack”

• Where the hob is not installed over a built-in oven,

a wooden panel must be installed as insulation.
This must be placed at a minimum distance of 20
mm from the lower part of the hob.

Ventilation

To ensure adequate ventilation, the back panel of
the cabinet must be removed. It is advisable to
install the oven so that it rests on two strips of wood,
or on a completely flat surface with an opening of at
least 45 x 560 mm (

see diagrams

).

Where a hob is installed above an oven without a
forced ventilation cooling system, adequate
ventilation must be provided inside the cabinet by
means of air holes through which air can pass (

see

figure

).

Gas connection

The appliance should be connected to the main gas
supply or to a gas cylinder in compliance with
current national regulations. Before carrying out the
connection, make sure the cooker is compatible with
the gas supply you wish to use. If this is not the
case, follow the instructions indicated in the
paragraph “Adapting to different types of gas.”
When using liquid gas from a cylinder, install a
pressure regulator which complies with current
national regulations.

!

 Check that the pressure of the gas supply is

consistent with the values indicated in Table 1
(“Burner and nozzle specifications”). This will ensure
the safe operation and longevity of your appliance
while maintaining efficient energy consumption.

Connection with a rigid pipe (copper or steel)

!

 Connection to the gas system must be carried out

in such a way as not to place any strain of any kind
on the appliance. There is an adjustable LLLLL-shaped
pipe fitting on the appliance supply ramp and this is
fitted with a seal in order to prevent leaks. The seal
must always be replaced after rotating the pipe
fitting (seal provided with appliance). The gas
supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas cylindrical
male attachment.

Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel
pipe to a threaded attachment

The gas supply pipe fitting is a threaded 1/2 gas
cylindrical male attachment.
These pipes must be installed so that they are never
longer than 2000 mm when fully extended. Once
connection has been carried out, make sure that the
flexible metal pipe does not touch any moving parts
and is not compressed.

!

 Only use pipes and seals that comply with current

national regulations.
