Wiring diagram
4. Gas Connection
Install in accordance with relevant gas standards and/or codes of practice applicable.
Connect the elbow fitting to the appliance gas manifold connection, and check that seals between the elbow and
manifold connection are in place and in good condition.
For Natural gas: connect the natural gas appliance regulator (pictured opposite) with integral test point using
approved gas thread tape or compound to the elbow fitting.
For Universal LPG: change the natural gas regulator to LPG set by adjusts the
spring to make sure the outlet pressure be set at 2.75kPa.
Ensure the supply connection point, test point and natural gas regulator adjustment
screw (for Natural gas installation) are accessible for testing and/or adjustment with the
hotplate in the installed position.
Where a flexible hose assembly is used, ensure it is approved to
AS/NZS 1869, Class B. Any hose assembly used must be restrained
from accidental contact with the flue outlet of an under bench oven.
This hose assembly shall be suitable for connection to a fixed
consumer piping outlet located as follows:
Hotplates at a point 800 mm to 850 mm above the floor and in the
region outside the width of the appliance to a distance of 250 mm.
After connecting to gas, check for leaks using soapy solution, never a
naked flame.
Fit the duplicate data plate (supplied in separate bag) on a surface adjacent to the hotplate, for example, the
inside of the cupboard door so it is clearly visible for any service technician.
SETTING THE GAS PRESSURE:
Fit a manometer with a 6 mm rubber hose to the test point on the regulator (for natural gas).
Light Triple Ring and Auxiliary burner on and adjust test point pressure to 1.00 kPa. Turn the two burners off and
on again and recheck the pressure is same as set previously or adjust as required.
TEST FOR CORRECT OPERATION:
After installation and adjusting burner pressure using test point, each burner ignition and operation must be
tested individually and with all burners operating. This testing must be done by the installer before leaving.
