Once the appliance has been fully installed ready to operate, check that the gas supply tap is open.

Then:
-
For appliances with a safety thermostat of the CONFORT range : set the know to position 5,
-
For appliances with a safety tap of the CONFORT and STANDARD ranges: set the know to 8 or
in the “high flame” position.
