GAS CONNECTIONS
LOCAL AUTHORITY REQUIREMENTS
Check Gas Type and specifications plate placed on the bottom face of the unit. All gas fitting work, service and
repairs can only be performed by an authorized person in accordance with the current edition of AS5601 and
local gas regulations. Failure to comply with this condition will render the warranty invalid. Always unplug the
appliance before carrying out any maintenance operations or repairs. The walls of the units must not be higher
than work top and must be capable of resisting temperatures of 75 above temperature. Do not install the
appliance near flammable materials (eg. curtains). The final act of any installation or gas type conversion must
be the full testing of this appliance, which includes leak testing, ignition of each burner and the functionality of
the burners separately and together.
INSTALLATION
The appliance is predisposed and adjusted to operate with the gas indicated on the specifications plate
(normally NG) applied onto the appliance. Please see gas rates summary information on the previous page.
If the appliance must be operated with a gas different than that indicated on the plate, it is necessary to execute
the following operations:
-Gas connection including regulator (NG) or test point nipple adaptor (LPG) to be changed.
-Replacement of the injectors.
-New gas label attached stating gas type.
-Adjustment of minimum setting.
GAS CONNECTION
The connection must be made by a qualified gas fitter according to the relevant standard. The gas connection
is positioned on the left hand side (from front), 40mm in from the back edge.
The fitting (fig. 6.1) is made up of:
1 elbow fitting “A”
1 gaskets “F”
1 LPG test point nipple adaptor “B”
The hob must be installed in a room with adequate ventilation (see installation section).
N.G.:
Fit the supplied NG regulator to the elbow fitting “A” using two spanners (note orientation of the NG regulator
gas flow).
Connect the other side of the NG regulator to the gas inlet pipe with the correct ½” BSPT thread connector
using two spanners.
L.P.G.:
Connect the LPG test point nipple adaptor “B” to the cooking hob inlet “A” and then connect to the gas inlet
pipe with the correct ½” BSPT thread connector (or using the appropriate adaptor) using two spanners.
Connect the other end of the pipe to the cylinder pressure regulator.
