Instructions for the installer
EN
11.3 Gas connection
This appliance is suitable for installation with Natural Gas or ULPG
(propane/butane). Refer to “12.3 Burner and nozzle characteristics table”
for the relevant burner pressure and appropriate injector sizes. When the
appliance is to be connected to Natural Gas then the pressure regulator
supplied must be fitted to the gas inlet. A test point (for checking the gas
pressure) is supplied either with the regulator or as a separate fitting in
the case of ULPG (propane) appliances.
Connection of the appliance to the gas supply must be in accordance
with the requirements of AS5601. A ½” BSP connector at the inlet is
recommended and the gas supply line to the appliance must be of
adequate length to allow sufficient withdrawal of appliance for service or
disconnection and be:
1. annealed copper pipe or;
2. flexible hose according to AS/NZ1869 & be at least Class “B”, 10 mm
diameter.
The appliance must be installed with provision to allow the gas to be turned off and disconnected for
servicing and removal of the appliance as required from the gas supply. Before the appliance is operated
make certain all relevant parts are placed in the correct position.
On completion of the installation, the installer MUST check for gas leaks and test each burner
individually for the correct flame. Once all burners have been tested individually, turn all burners on
together. Warranty service calls do not cover these adjustments!
To check the operating pressure of the appliance it is recommended at least 2 large size burners are
used. Ensure appliance is secured to wall when installation is completed.
N.G.
The regulator supplied must be fitted to the ½ BSP thread at the rear of the appliance. An approved
manual shut-off valve must be installed. The N.G. regulator must be checked and adjusted to 1.0kPa
after installation.
U.L.P.G.
Can be connected to the inlet fitting directly. The pressure must
be checked to ensure it is operating at 2.75kPa. A separate test point
fitting must be installed between the piping & the appliance for the
pressure to be checked to ensure it is operating at 2.75kPa.
Installation with flexible hose must be carried out so that the length of the piping does not exceed 1,2
metres when fully extended; make sure that the hoses do not come into contact with moving parts and
that they are not crushed in any way.
11.3.1Connection to liquid gas
Use a pressure regulator and make the connection on the gas cylinder following the guidelines set out in
the regulations in force.
Make sure that the supply pressure complies with the values indicated in the paragraph “10.3 Burner
and nozzle characteristics tables”.
11.4 Room ventilation
The room containing the appliance should have a permanent air supply in accordance with the
standards in force. The room where the appliance is installed must have enough air flow needed for the
regular combustion of gas and the necessary air change in the room itself. The hob shall be installed in
rooms with natural ventilation, as required by Standards regulations AS/NZS5601.
11.5 Extraction of the combustion products
The combustion products may be extracted by means of hoods connected to a natural draught chimney
whose efficiency is certain or via forced extraction. An efficient extraction system requires precision
planning by a specialist qualified in this area and must comply with the positions and distances indicated
by the regulations. When the job is complete, the installer must issue a certificate of conformity.
