4. Installation
B. The cooktop can be connected with a Flexible Hose, which complies with AS/NZS 1869 (AGA Approved),
10mm ID, class B or D, no more than 1.2m long and in accordance with AS5601. Ensure that the hose does
not contact the hot surfaces of the hotplate, oven, dishwasher or other appliances that may be installed
underneath or next to the hotplate. WARNING: Ensure that the hose assembly is restrained from accidental
contact with the flue or flue outlet of an underbench oven. The hose should not be subjected to abrasion,
kinking or permanent deformation and should be able to be inspected along its entire length. Unions
compatible with the hose fittings must be used and connections tested for gas leaks. The supply connection
point shall be accessible with the appliance installed.
The appliance is factory set for Natural gas. The test point pressure should be adjusted to 1.00kPa when
approximately 50% of the burners are on high flame.
The appliance is set up to operate with the gas specified on the gas type label placed on the back of the
appliance.
When the type of gas available does not correspond to that for which the appliance is set up, replace the
corresponding injectors (provided), being careful to put on the new label (provided) and remove the old one.
Universal LPG
When converting from Natural Gas to Universal LPG ensure that the NG regulator is
removed and replaced with the Test Point Assembly. An AGA Approved gas regulator
suitable for a supply pressure of 2.75kPa should be part of the gas tank supply and the
test point pressure should be adjusted to 2.75kPa.
Before Leaving
- Check all connections for gas leaks with soap and water.
DO NOT
use
a naked flame for detecting leaks. Ignite all burners both individually and concurrently to
ensure correct operation of gas valves, burners and ignition. Turn gas taps to low flame
position and observe stability of the flame for each burner individually and concurrently.
When satisfied with the hotplate, please instruct the user on the correct method of
operation. In case the appliance fails to operate correctly after all checks have been
carried out, call the Customer Service team.
Gas leakage and operation of the appliance must be tested by the installer before
leaving. Check burner flames are blue in colour, stable and completely ignite at both
high and low flame settings and with no appreciable yellow tipping, carbon deposition,
lifting, floating, lighting back or objectionable odour. Test burners individually and in
combination. When satisfied with the operation of the cooktop, please instruct the user
on the correct method of operation.
Natural Gas
Natural Gas installation requires the connection of a gas regulator. Only use the natural
gas regulator supplied with this appliance. Assemble the regulator (noting the gas flow
direction) and transition pieces (supplied with the appliance), in accordance with the
figure. The transition piece on the supply side of the regulator must be provided by the installer. The appliance
has been fitted with injectors for natural gas. Universal LPG gas injectors (if required) have been included in the
installation kit.
