Use
Turning the burner of the appliance on and off
COOKTOP BURNERS
Press and turn knob “A” (fig.3) from position “ ” to " " keeping it
pressed in.
Light the pilot light with igniter "W" (fig.2) or a match. After the flame
has lit, hold the knob down for roughly 10 seconds (count to twenty);
so the thermocouple heats up and keeps the safety valve open.
HOT PLATE
In the models with a hot plate, lift cover "C" (fig.2) and follow the
previous instructions.
For model PPC70G7 light the pilot by pressing igniter button "B"
repeatedly (fig.3).
To light the main burner, turn the knob again until it reaches the
desired position.

Malfunctions
Malfunctions do not always depend on the quality of the components
used. These appliances are manufactured using top quality
components. Failures may be caused by voltage surges, or dust and
dirt in the operating components.
In any situation where improper functioning of the appliance is
suspected, turn it off and DISCONNECT IT FROM THE MAINS. Call
the authorised repair service.
Unauthorised persons should never attempt to repair the appliance, or carry out maintenance. Tampering with the appliance
voids the warranty!
Operational checks
Before the unit is delivered to the user the following checks must be
carried out.
THERMAL CAPACITY
Check that the pressure and type of gas supplied where the unit is to
be used is the same as that indicated on the plate. If it is not, the unit
must either be converted or adapted. In this case please refer to the
paragraph: “Conversion or Adaptation”.
Check that the right nozzles have been installed. Refer to the nozzle
table and check that the nozzles indicated in the table are the same
as those installed on the unit.
An additional check of thermal capacity entails verifying the gas
consumed with the volumetric method: start the burner and after
approximately 10 minutes (in working conditions) check that the gas
flow (in m
3
/h or in kg/h) corresponds to that in the nozzle table.
APPEARANCE OF THE FLAME
The flame should be blue and there should be no yellow dots in it; it
must be stable at its base.
If the colour of the flame tends towards yellow it means the primary
airflow is not adjusted properly. If the primary airflow is too fast the
flame will be short and tend to burn above the burner.
The appearance of the flame must also be checked 15 minutes after
the appliance has been running at full power. The flame must remain
stable even when passing quickly from minimum to maximum.
USER'S INSTRUCTIONS
The user must be trained on the correct use and functions of the
appliance. We would like to point out that any alterations made to the
room where the unit is installed could influence the amount of air
used for combustion and for this reason the appliance must be
checked again. When these checks have been done, test the unit for
leaks.
Replacing parts
Only qualified personnel should replace faulty parts. Prior to
commencing any kind of work, disconnect the unit from the gas
distribution network. After having removed the control panel, all the
functional parts of the appliance are easily accessible.
Only order spare parts from the manufacturer or an authorised reseller.
