Conversion from Natural Gas to LPG

If the cooking appliance is set up for a different type of gas than that available, its injectors must be replaced, the minimum flow regulated. In order to replace the injectors in the cooking hob, it is necessary to carry out the following operations:

Fig. A Fig. B

•remove the pan supports;

•remove the burners and burner caps (Fig. A);

•take out the injector (Fig. B) and replace it with one suitable for the new type of gas (see "General injectors table");

•replace the gas label (on the rear of the appliance) with the new one provided with the injectors kit;

•refit all parts by following the disassembly instructions in reverse order and taking care to position the burner cap correctly on the burner.

Minimum flow of valved cooking hob taps

•Switch on the burner and turn the control knob towards the minimum flow position ;

•remove the knob;

•using a screwdriver, adjust the internal screw Z until the correct low flame is obtained;

•refit the knob.

Minimum flow of non-valved cooking hob taps

•Switch on the burner and turn the control knob towards the minimum flow position ;

•remove the knob;

•insert a small screwdriver into the rod of the tap and adjust the internal screw Z until the correct low flame is obtained;

•refit the knob.

=

Unscrew the adjustment screw Z to increase the flow, or tighten it to reduce the flow. The adjustment is correct when the low flame measures approximately 3 or 4 mm. When changing quickly from maximum to minimum flow and vice versa make sure that the flame does not go out.

Connecting to LPG

Use a pressure regulator and connect to the cylinder in compliance with the guidelines set out in standards regulations in force.

L.P.G. cookers MUST NOT be installed below ground level i.e. in a basement or aboard any boat, yacht or other vessel.
