CONNECTION TO THE GAS SUPPLY
Gas connection must be carried out in conformity
with the regulations in force. The appliance
leaves the factory tested and regulated for the
type of gas indicated on the plate which is
situated in the lower position near the gas
connection tube. Ascertain that the type of gas
with which the appliance will be supplied is the
same as that indicated on the plate.
If different carry out all the operations according
to the indications cited in the paragraph “adaption
to different types of gas”.
For a maximum output and minimum
consumption ascertain that the pressure of the gas
used has the values indicated in the table of
“burner characteristics”.
If the pressure of the gas used is different (or
variable) from that foreseen it is necessary to
install a suitable pressure regulator on the inlet
tube.
The use of pressure regulators for liquid gas
(GPL) is permitted as long as these conform to
the regulations in force.
The joint is mounted on the intake area of the
pipe, fitted with a filleted nut GJ 1/2, between the
sealing components as shown in Fig. 1. Screw the
parts without forcing, turn the joint in the
direction required and then tighten everything.

CONNECTION
Carry out the connection to the gas plant only by
means of a rigid metallic tube conforming to the
regulations in force.
The joint for the entry of gas into the appliance is
threaded GJ 1/2".
Carry out the connection avoiding any type of
stress on the appliance.
The adjustable joint permits the location of the
supply tube in the appropriate site situated on the
side of the protection box of the hob itself (Fig.
2).
This system permits the total encumbrance of the
hob plus the gas supply tube to be contained to a
depth of 30 mm.

IMPORTANT
Upon completion of installation, always check:
●
that all the joints are completely sealed by
using a soapy solution, never a flame;
●
that the automatic ignition system is
operating satisfactory on all burners, both
individually and in combination.
