10.Check whether there is a burner pressure regulator (7) attached to the top of the gas control, or simply a blank plate (8).

Note

In the event of the supply pressure for a gas category being the same as the burner pressure (3.4.3 "Gas data"), the gas control must be fitted with a blanking plate with a cork gasket. A burner pressure that deviates with respect to the supply pressure requires a burner pressure regulator with rubber gasket to be used. Each conversion kit contains all the necessary components.

11.If the blank plate or burner pressure regulator need to be replaced:

-Unscrew the connector (9) from the gas control.

-If necessary, remove the blank plate or burner pressure regulator (7).

-If necessary, fit the blank plate or burner pressure regulator supplied with the conversion kit.

-Fit the gas control's connector (9).

12.Fit the connector (1) of the hot surface igniter and flame probe to the controller.

13.Fit the 3-part gas coupling (2).

14.Check the burner pressure and supply pressure (3.11 "Checking the supply pressure and burner pressure").

15.Replace the cover.

16.Remove the sticker showing the new gas category from the conversion kit, and attach it below the appliance's rating plate. This clearly indicates that the appliance may no longer be run on the gas for which it was originally supplied.
