Installation instructions

Leak-testing the cooktop

After the final gas connection has been made, turn the manual gas valve on and test the cooktop and all connections in the gas supply piping for leaks with a soapy water solution. During leak- testing, all the gas valves on the cooktop must be closed.

The presence of bubbles indicates a leak. If a leak is present, tighten or replace connections as appropriate.

Important!

Do not use any naked flame to check for leaks.

Converting the cooktop to a different gas type

Important!

The conversion procedure must be carried out only by an authorized person.

This appliance is supplied with a set of injectors for the various types of gas. Use the ‘Gas rate summary’ (following) to select the appropriate injector.

To convert from one gas type to another, you need to reset the gas pressure regulator, replace the injectors, adjust the minimum burner setting, re-test for leaks and fill in/affix the gas conversion labels.

1Reset the gas pressure regulator:

Unscrew the regulator cover and remove it.

Unscrew component “A”, reverse it and screw it back in according to the gas type you are converting to (see Fig. 14 below).
