2.3.5 Connection with a flexible steel hose (for all types of gas)
This type of connection can be made on both built-in and
freestanding appliances. Only use standards-compliant steel hoses
whose length is not greater than 2 metres.
After having installed the connector as indicated in “2.4.1 Connector
installation”, screw the end of the flexible hose to the threaded 1/2
external gas connector (ISO 228-1), placing the seal in between.
At the end of the installation, check for any leaks with a soapy
solution, never with a flame.
For the connection between the cooker and the gas cylinder
use a portion of standards-compliant hose not less than 1.4 m
in length.
