Connecting a flexible jointless stainless steel pipe to a threaded attachment
Make sure that the hose and gaskets comply with current national legislation.
To begin using the hose, remove the hose holder on the appliance (the gas supply inlet on the appliance is a cylindrical threaded 1/2 gas male attachment).
Perform the connection in such a way that the hose length does not exceed a maximum of 2 metres, making sure that the hose is not compressed and does not come into contact with moving parts.
Checking the tightness of the connection
When the installation process is complete, check the hose fittings for leaks using a soapy solution. Never use a flame.
Adapting to different types of gas
It is possible to adapt the appliance to a type of gas other than the default type (this is indicated on the rating label on the cover).
Adapting the hob
Replacing the nozzles for the hob burners:
1.Remove the hob grids and slide the burners off their seats.
2.Unscrew the nozzles using a 7 mm socket spanner (see figure), and
replace them with nozzles suited to the new type of gas (see Burner and nozzle specifications table).
3. Replace all the components by following the above instructions in reverse.
Adjusting the hob burners’ minimum setting: |
|
1. Turn the tap to the minimum position. | GB |
2.Remove the knob and adjust the regulatory screw, which is positioned inside or next to the tap pin, until the flame is small but steady.
If the appliance is connected to a liquid gas supply, the regulatory screw must be fastened as tightly as possible:
3.While the burner is alight, quickly change the position of the knob from minimum to maximum and vice versa several times, checking that the flame is not extinguished.
The hob burners do not require primary air adjustment.
After adjusting the appliance so it may be used with a different type of gas, replace the old rating label with a new one that corresponds to the new type of gas (these labels are available from Authorised Technical Assistance Centres).
Should the gas pressure used be different (or vary slightly) from the recommended pressure, a suitable pressure regulator must be fitted to the inlet hose in accordance with current national regulations relating to “regulators for channelled gas”.
