Installation
Connecting the electricity
Before connecting the hob to the electric mains,
check that the voltage and frequency of the
mains matches what is shown on the hob’s rating
plate, which is located lower down, and on the
guarantee certificate or, where appropriate, the
technical datasheet supplied, which should be
kept together with this manual.
The connection is made via an omnipolar switch
or plug where accessible, which is suitable for the
intensity to be tolerated and which has a
minimum gap of 3 mm between its contacts,
which will ensure disconnection in case of
emergency or when cleaning the hob.
The connection should include correct earthing,
in compliance with current norms.
If the flexible supply cable fitted to these
appliances ever needs to be changed, it should
be replaced by TEKA’s official service.
The input cable should not be in contact either
with the body of the hob or with the body of the
oven, if the oven is installed in the same unit.
Gas converter
Important!
Any alteration that is to be made to the appliance
to convert it to a different type of gas should only
be carried out by a qualified technician.
Information for Technical Assis-tance:
e
whenever the type of gas or the appliance’s
pressure is changed, the new regulation plate
should be placed on top of the old one so that the
new features can be seen after the change.
The tasks involved in conversion are:
Replace the injectors.
Adjust the taps’ minimums.
The injectors required for each gas type are
shown in table 1.
To replace the injectors, follow these instructions:
1. Remove the grids and upper parts of the
burner so that the injector can be seen.
2. Using a number 7 pipe spanner, remove the
injectors and replace them with the new
ones. Take care to press the injector down
firmly so that there is no leakage.
3. Replace the grid and burners that were
previously removed.
When the injectors have been changed, this is
how to adjust the minimums:
1. Turn the burners on to their minimum.
2. Remove the controls and joints from the
control panel to access the gas taps.
3. Use a slim, grooved screwdriver to turn the
screw located to the right or in the centre of
the gas tap’s shaft (the flame increases when
you turn to the left and decreases when you
turn to the right).
4. When properly adjusted, check that the flame
does not go out when you turn the knob
quickly from maximum to minimum.
TEKA
assumes no responsibility for any hob
malfunction if the gas conversion or the adjustment of
the burners’ minimums has not been carried out by
TEKA’s official personnel.
