3.3. Gas connection
The connection of the appliance should be performed in accordance with local and international
standards and regulations applicable. You can find the information related to appropriate gas types
and appropriate gas injectors on technical data table. If the pressure of used gas is different than
these values stated or not stable in your area, it may be required to assemble an available pressure
regulator on the gas inlet. It is certainly required to contact to the authorized service to make these
adjusments.
The points that must be checked during flexible hose assembly
If the gas connection is made by a flexible hose that is fixed on the gas inlet of appliance, it must be
fixed by a pipe collar as well. Connect your appliance with a short and durable hose that is as close
as possible to the gas source. The hose's permitted maximum lenght is 1.5m. The hose that brings
gas to the appliance must be changed once a year for your safety.

The hose must be kept clear from areas that may heat up to temperatures in excess of 90 C. The
hose must not be ruptured, bent or folded. It must be kept clear of sharp corners, moving things,
and should not be defective. Before assembly, it must be checked whether there is any production
defect.
As gas is turned on, all connection parts and hose must be checked with soapy water or leakage
fluids. Do not use naked flame to check gas leakage. All metal components used during gas
connection must be clear of rust. Also check the expiry dates of components to be used.
Assembly of gas supply and leakage check
The points that must be checked during fixed gas connection assembly
To assemble a fixed gas connection (gas connection made by threads, e.g. a nut), there are different
methods used in different countries. The most common parts are already supplied with your appliance.
Any other part can be supplied as spare part.
