We recommend that two people manoeuvre the cooker.
Make sure that the floor covering is firmly fixed, or removed,
to prevent it being disturbed when moving the cooker
around.
Assembly of gas supply and leakage
check
Connect the appliance in accordance with applicable local
and international standards and regulations. First, check what
type of gas is installed on the cooker.
This information is available on a sticker on the back of the
cooker. You can find the information related to appropriate
gas types and appropriate gas injectors in the technical
data table. Check that the feeding gas pressure matches the
values on the technical data table, to be able to get the most
efficient use and to ensure the minimum gas consumption.
If the pressure of used gas is different than the values
stated or is not stable in your area, it may be necessary to
assemble an available pressure regulator on the gas inlet. You
should contact an authorised service centre to make these
adjustments.
Points that must be checked during
flexible hose assembly:
If the gas connection is made by a flexible hose fixed onto the
gas inlet of the hob, it must be fixed on by a pipe collar.
Connect your appliance with a short and durable hose that is
as close as possible to the gas source.
The permitted maximum length of the hose is 1.5 m.
The device should be connected in line with the relevant local
gas standards.
The hose must be kept clear of areas that may heat up to
temperatures of more than 90°C.
The hose must not be cracked, torn, bent or folded.
Keep the hose clear of sharp corners and objects that could
move.
Before you assemble the connection, you must make sure the
hose is not damaged. Use bubbly water or leakage fluids to
perform the check. Do not use a naked flame to check for gas
leakage.
All metal items that are used during gas connection must be
free from rust. Check the expiry date of any components used
for connection.
