• 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.
Points that must be checked during
fixed gas connection assembly
The method used to assemble a fixed
gas connection (gas connection made by
threads, e.g. a nut) varies according to the
country you are in. The most common parts
for your country will be supplied with your
appliance. Any other parts required can be
supplied as spare parts.
During connection, always keep the nut
on the gas manifold fixed while rotating
the counter-part. Use appropriately-sized
spanners for a safe connection. For
surfaces between different components
always use the seals provided in the gas
conversion kit.
The seals used during connection should
also be approved to be used in gas
connections. Do not use plumbing seals for
gas connections.
Remember that this appliance is ready
to be connected to the gas supply in the
country for which it has been produced.
The main country of destination is marked
on the rear cover of the appliance. If you
need to use it in another country, any
of the connections in the figure below
may be required. In such a case, contact
local authorities to learn the correct gas
connection.
