2. MAINTENANCE
WARNINGS:
Before carrying out any maintenance or conversion operations turn off the electricity
supply and close the gas upstream of the appliance. If components and/or
accessories need replacing, use only

&

spare parts only. All the
operations hereunder must be carried out by qualified technicians in accordance with
the enclosed instructions and current installation standards.
2.1. GAS SUPPLY RUBBER PIPE
The condition of the gas supply pipe should be checked periodically (once a year) and replaced
by the date printed on the outside of the pipe and if there are signs of cracking, cuts, scratches or
burns, or if it is no longer flexible but hard and plastic. The pipe must be suitable for use with
liquid gas and comply with the applicable standards.
2.2. ELECTRICITY SUPPLY CABLE
If the electricity supply cable needs replacing, please remember that this is an X type of
connection; therefore only authorised
Porter
&
Charles
technicians may replace it. Use
HO5FRR-F cables only. The earth wire (yellow/green) must be at least 2 cm longer than the other
two phase wires (fig. 5 B). This ensures that the electrics are safe should the wire be pulled
accidentally.
For the cookers with a gas oven and an electric grill, use a 3x1 mm² HO5RR-F cable, for cookers
with electric oven and grill, use a 3x1.5 mm² HO5RR-F cable with a maximum external diameter
of 9 mm.
2.3. ACCESS TO ELECTRICAL/GAS COMPONENTS
To carry out maintenance and/or to replace the electrical components fitted in the back of the
cooker (e.g. light bulb older, rotisserie, supply cable, electric ignition generator, resistors) the rear
protection panel must be removed by unfastening the screws that secure it to the sides.
To carry out maintenance and/or replace the electrical components fitted to the front panel (e.g.
control panel, taps, thermostat, timer, etc), you have to remove the rear panel and also proceed
as follows:
-
remove the flue pipe, if fitted;
-
remove the hob grids and burners;
-
unfasten the screws that secure the cups to the hob and, for models with safety device, also
remove the nuts that secure the thermocouples;
-
unscrew the 2 top front or side front screws (fig. 9) that fasten the hob and then lift it;
-
remove the knobs and remove the screws that fasten the gas train to the front control panel,
remove the gas train taking care not to damage any pipes or thermocouples.
-
to reassemble follow these instructions in reverse order.
2.4. REPLACING THE THERMOSTAT TAPS
If a tap or a thermostat needs replacing, first follow the instructions given in paragraph 2.3.
(access to electrical/gas components), then remove the nut fastens the supply pipe to the burner,
the thermocouple nut and the screws that fasten the tap or the thermostat to the gas train.
Besides the tap or the thermostat, it is also important that the gasket is replaced in order to
prevent any gas leaks. After maintenance, ensure that there are no leaks by using a specific
instrument or soapy water.
