If the hob is to be installed above an
oven or if other nearby heating
appliances risk heating and damaging
the gas hose then it is essential that a
rigid pipe be installed instead.
If a flexible hose is used (in the case
of butane gas) then it must not be ins-
talled in a place where it may be in
contact with a moving part of the kit-
chen unit or an area likely to become
obstructed.

Preliminary remarks
Access to the whole length of the connection hose must be possible and the gas
hose must be replaced before its expiry date (indicated on the hose).
Whatever means of connections is chosen, make sure that it is gas-tight after
installation by using soapy-water.
When connecting your hob's gas supply, if you have to change the direction
of the elbow fitted on the appliance:
