Gas connection
The cooker should
be connected to the
gas-supply by a
gas safe registered
installer. During
installation of this
product it is
essential to fit an
approved gas tap to
isolate the supply
from the appliance
for the convenience of any subsequent removal or
servicing. Connection of the appliance to the gas
mains or liquid gas must be carried out according to
the prescribed regulation in force, and only after it is
ascertained that it is adaptable to the type of gas to
be used. If not, follow the instructions indicated in
the paragraph headed “Adaptation to different gas
types”. In the case of connection to liquid gas, by
tank, use pressure regulators that conform to the
regulation in force. The gas supply must be
connected to the left of the appliance. Be sure that
the hose does not pass through the rear of the
cooker touching hot parts.
Make sure the supply pressure conforms with the
values shown in the table entitled “Caracteristics of
the burners and nozzles”.
When the cooker is installed between
cabinets (recessed), the gas connection
must be effected by an approved flexible
hose with bayonet fitting
(BS 669 or EN 14800). The gas inlet for
the cookers is a threaded G 1/2 gas female
f i t t i n g .
Connecting the gas supply
To make the connection, a flexible hose should be
used corresponding to the current gas regulations
which are:
•
the hose must never be at any point in its
lenght in contact with the “hot” parts
of the cooker;
•
the hose must never be longer than 1,5 metre;
•
the hose must not be subject to any tension
or torsional stress and it must not have any
excessively narrow curves or bottlenecks;
•
the hose must be easy to inspect along its
entire length to check its condition;
•
the hose must always be in good condition,
never attempt to repair.
