is

9.Use the pressure gauge to read the supply pressure at 1nipple

(1) (3.4.3 "Gas data").

Note

Consult the mains gas supply company if the supply pressure is not correct.

10.Use the pressure gauge to read the burner pressure at nipple

(2) (3.4.3 "Gas data").

If the burner pressure is not correct and the appliance is fitted with a blank plate, you will not be able to adjust the pressure. Finalise (3.11.4 "Finalising"), and in this case, consult your installation engineer or supplier.

If the appliance is indeed fitted with a burner pressure regulator, the pressure can be adjusted as described in the procedure (3.11.3 "Adjusting the pressure").

3.11.3Adjusting the pressure

1.Remove the cap (4) from the burner pressure regulator (3).

2.Correct the burner pressure by turning the adjusting screw (5), depending on the correction required:

-Adjustment screw anticlockwise: burner pressure decreases.

-Adjustment screw clockwise: burner pressure increases.

3.Cover the opening of the adjusting screw and check the burner pressure against the value given in the gas table (3.4.3 "Gas data").

4.If the pressure is not set correctly, repeat the preceding steps until the correct pressure is attained.

5.Fit the cap (4) back on the burner pressure regulator.

6.Activate the "OFF mode" of the electronic controller:

MENU »OFF ^ ON

ÈWEEK PROGRAM

7.If the MENU is not displayed: press .
