Installation

These instructions are intended for the qualified technician installing the appliance in order to insure that the installation, adjustments and maintenance procedures are performed correctly and comply with the regulations currently in effect.

Important: the hob must be disconnected from the power supply before making any adjustments or performing any maintenance, etc.

The gas hob is not provided with a combustion product discharge. It must be installed in a sufficiently ventilated space, in terms of the laws in force.

The amount of air which is necessary for combustion must not be below 2.0m3 / h for each kW of installed power. The gas hob can be fitted into a worktop as illustrated below.

These measurements must absolutely be observed in so far as improper installation can cause the surrounding surface areas to overheat. It is recommended that the hob be installed at a distance of at least 55mm from the back wall or other vertical surfaces to ensure that the air circulates properly over the cooking area and to avoid overheating the surrounding surfaces. A seal or gasket is provided with the hob, make sure that it adheres properly to the bottom part of the frame of the hob.

The seal must fit properly around the entire hob frame and especially along the corners in order to create a seal between the work top and the hob itself so as to prevent spills or splashes from leaking into the cabinet below.

The hob must be fixed into the worktop using the fixing clamps (see diagram).

It is essential to install the hob on a totally flat surface. Any damage caused by incorrect fitting may alter the characteristics or impair performance.

Insert the hob into the hole, pressing firmly around the frame to make it adhere to the counter top.

GAS CONNECTION:

Connect the hob to the gas cylinder or to the mains, according to the prescribed standards in force. Ensure beforehand that the hob is compatable to the type of gas available.

Otherwise refer to section: 'Adaptation to Various Types of Gas'.

Check that the feed pressure falls within the values described in the table: 'User Characteristics'.

ISO 7/1

DO NOT overtighten screw 'A', one turn maximum will be sufficient, after correctly fitting shaft 'B' into place (as shown above). Ensure that the supporting surface is perfectly even. Fit the appropriate expanded seal. The hob must not be subjected to strains caused by uneven supporting surfaces.

Rigid or Semi-Rigid Metal Connection:

Carry out the connection with fittings and metal pipes (even flexible pipes) NB.When the installation is complete, check for perfect sealing of the entire system by using a soapy solution.

Adaptation to Various Types of Gas:

Should the hob be pre-set to a different type of gas to that required/available, proceed as follows:

-replace the injectors with those for the type of gas to be used (see table: 'User Characteristics'.

-to adjust to the minimum, use a screwdriver on the screw placed on the tap, after turning the tap to its minimum position. For LPG (butane/propane) screw tight.
