Once the hob is connected, open the valve on the gas supply pipe. Use a leak
detection fluid to check each connection in the gas supply. The presence of bubbles
will indicate a leak.
3
If no leaks are apparent, turn on one burner at a time and check the flame on each.
The flames should be clear blue, with no yellow tip and should not extinguish when
changing from maximum to minimum flow.
If the hob is to be adapted for LPG, proceed as follows:
1
Isolate the appliance from the electricity and gas supplies.
2
Remove the pan supports and burner assemblies.
3
Replace the injectors with the alternative LPG injectors supplied.
4
Adjust the valves.
4a
Make sure the appliance is isolated from the electricity.
4b
Open the gas feed slightly.
4c
Ignite the burners and leave them on at the lowest setting.
4d
Remove the knobs and rubber seals to access the screws underneath.
4e
Adjust the flame to a length of at least 4 mm by tightening (from NG to LPG) or
loosening the screw (from LPG to NG) with a screwdriver. Make sure the flame
does not die out.
4f
Repeat the steps above for each valve.
4g
Replace the knobs and rubber seals when complete.
5
Use the appropriate thread sealant and check for gas soundness.
6
Mark the rating plate to amend the Gas type details.

Making an electrical connection
1
Make sure the voltage of your power supply is 230V. The power supply required by
the hob (230v) is specified on its rating plate.
2
Connect the hob to its power supply. If the power supply cable needs to be replaced,
the new cable must not be less than 0.75mm2 (3 x 0.75 cable). Use H05V2V2-F
cable or similar which has a maximum tempeature resistance of 90ºC.
Making a gas connection
IMPORTANT
The gas supply to the hob must be connected by a qualified gas fitter. The hob
is factory set for connection to a Natural Gas (NG) supply.
The hob can be adjusted for use with Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG). These
adjustments must be carried out by a qualified gas fitter. LPG injectors are
included with the hob for this purpose. The valves must also be adjusted.
The hob must be installed in accordance with all relevant local building
regulations, gas authority codes and codes of practice.
In the UK BS5440 part 2, BS6172 and BS6891 and the Gas Safety (installation
and use) regulations 1998 must be adhered to. The hob must be fitted by a
qualified and CORGI registered gas fitter.
1
The hob is supplied with a 1/2 BSP female connection. It should be connected to the
gas supply by use of the 1/2 BSP restrictor elbow, seal and copper pipe and have an
isolation valve fitted in an easily accessible position. It is recommended that connection
to the gas supply is made using a rigid 15mm copper pipe. Alternatively a flexible
pipe made specifically for the purpose of connecting gas appliances can be used. The
pipe’s length should not exceed 1.5 metres. The pipe should be fitted so that it does not
come into contact with any moving parts or combustable items.
